doing some sleuthing/phone photo dairy #8

  oh, the season of creating costumes! my second costume was worn last saturday evening when my boyfriend and i went to a house show/halloween party at a loft close by ours. thinking of ideas the whole afternoon, i decided to go with a classic, nancy drew. this is an outfit that i would wear daily, but it's fun to see if people can guess who i am. i bought the dress i am wearing at a vintage warehouse, re-runs, in the west bottoms earlier that day. my boyfriend dressed up as Gilligan  from Gilligan's island the tv show, but sometimes flipped his hat up (he said it was uncomfortable) and became a sailor. we only took a few pictures before taking a short, but extremely chilly walk to the event that evening.

here's a little peak of random things i've been up to!
