I’ve been tossing around the idea of opening up my own shop as of late. It’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a while now. I finished organizing and setting up the second bedroom last night, and I really think I may bite the bullet and go for it. I’m planning on selling different pieces – vintage, items from my closet, reconstructed/altered pieces, jewelry – the list goes on. It’s all dreams right now, but I’m thinking this dream can become my reality. At least, that’s what I’m going to hope for right now.

    I love how you paired that blue dress with the nude heels. Very chic!

    As for the store: Go for it!! You already have initial inventory so there’s nothing stopping you girl! I think it would be an awesome shop! (I would shop there esp. the shoe section ;) )

  4. No time like the present to start working on your dreams! I would shop from your shop. I love your style. It’s very inspiring to people that want to be creative with dressing with confidence and you give it to them so I am sure you would flurish in your dream. I say go for it!
