Gray Skies and Purple Feet

Vintage Edwardian Ardham Top. Spring Street Skirt $12. Black Tights Rue 21 $8. Purple Delicious Boots $30

Boot and Doggie Detail because he had to be in the way.

What not to wear on a rainy day...but I didn't subscribe to the dictates of this weather. Yes, I am wearing this to work. People are used to me being over dressed sometimes. The thundering rainy weather today made it almost impossible to wear this outfit but since Louisiana weather is fickle, I expected it to stop raining in about 5 minutes. It didn't. So I had to wear my tokidoki rain boots to get to my car since my carport is inundated with rain, bagged my purple bootsies and left. As soon as I got to Gonzales, the city I work in, there was no rain. So I delightfully put on my bagged boots and tromped towards our building. Just as soon as I was in, the clouds just let out a torrential downpour. I looked up at the sky waved my thanks at it. Someone in their parked car honked their horn at me and waved back.

  3. Beverly, this is one of my favorite tops! This has been in several photos already :D

    Gov, sadly, the dollies have been ensconced in the shelf. I actually already have a Blythe sized top made a while back. I have the purple Blythe ankle boots so all I really need is just the skirt :-) Thanks for the idea!

  8. I thought about telling you about the rain when you picked that out last night. Then, I thought about a) how good you looked, and b) how you wouldn't have listened anyway. So, I saved that bit of oxygen for sighing at our poor "attention starved" puppy.
