Farewell to Downton Girl

This outfit seems to have a little British flair. Maybe it's the hair, maybe it's the lace, maybe it's the oxfords. I will leave it as a little nod to Downton Abbey. A farewell to the soggy British soap opera that has brought new life to good ole PBS. I will miss the Dowager Countess. Everyone else...I think it is time to bid adieu.

Blazer, Jeans & Beret: Thrifted

Everything but the boots thrifted! Boots: Ebay

I bought these boots off of Ebay - one of those "buy it now" deals. When I opened the box - Whoa! - bad smell. Funky smell. Like moth balls or some horrid formaldehyde smell. Ick. So I had to spray them repeatedly with Febreeze and let them air out on the screened in porch. They smell much better now. Weird. Now I've told you that whole story, you...well, not sure what you can do with all that info. But now you know some shoes from Ebay will smell like a morgue. Not that I've been to one. Nevermind.
