While I was outside taking these I saw two blue jays hanging out but I wasn't able to get a photo. They were too speedy. Blue jays are a lot larger than I remembered them being and they are so pretty! I also saw a Cardinal in the backyard the same day. It was a bird party!
That door that is falling apart leads to the garage and I love it so much. It kind of needs to be replaced but I just don't think I can do it. The teardrop cut outs are just too good.

Ziggy Stardust is awesome :D I love David Bowie lol. My favourite song is Let's Dance or Life on Mars
ReplyDeletesoooo.... you're so cute. I was feeling a 'retro Star Trek' vibe - but that's because I still have yet to see Labyrinth!
ReplyDeleteIntentional or not - I love how your outfit matches all the peeling paint on the door...ha!
P.S.. are you back in town before your b-day??
Great to see you on the weekend!

Loving the necklace and your glasses!
ReplyDeleteGreat dress, you are rockin a bit of a superhero vibe with the high socks too, love it! P.S. I love Bowie too but was watching Family Guy last night and it featured this video which somehow I had never seen before...

Hilarious!
I am dyyyying over that video! They stole my best dance moves.
DeleteIt's amazing isn't it!? I don't know how I had never seen it before!
DeleteLabyrinth, yes please! One of my all time favorite movies. God, I love that fluffy worm so much.
ReplyDeleteLabyrinth is the best!! :D
DeleteMy cousins loved Labyrinth growing up, but it just freaked me out too much. I have since gotten over my fear of David Bowie, though. haha. I love your dress! Your studio is lovely, but it's always fun to see you outdoors :)

It freaked a lot of my friends out but I always loved it.
DeleteIt's fun for me to get outside during the day!
Oh my goodness that dress! I LOVE it! You look adorable and ready for Ivan to take you out for a rollerskating date! I love David Bowie too. I only know one person who doesn't love him and I can't believe it! So on a fairly regular basis I ask her if she's sure about that, lol! But, I don't think Ziggy Stardust when I see you in this dress. I think you look more like one of Charlie's Angels :)
ReplyDeleteOh this would be a good rollerskating outfit! Charlie's Angels works too, ha!
DeleteCan I tell you a secret? My first crush on a 'real' person (i.e. not astroboy) was David Bowie, and I know every line in the Labyrinth by heart. And I love your dress - the Ziggy swoosh is amazing, and the best part is it belonged to Ivan's great-aunt!! Awesome.

Kitty & Buck.
hehehe! that's awesome! He is pretty amazing :)
DeleteFirst thing I had to think of seing the dress was powerpuffgirls...haha..but in a good way!
ReplyDeleteDavid Bowie is awesome and Labyrinth is one aweseome AWESOME movie! He is so darn sexy in that movie!
oh i love the Powerpuff girls too!
Deletehaha dance magic dance! that's my only memory from labyrinth. :) love the outfit!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the door! I really think the ruggedness to it is so beautiful! It's creating new patterns on the surface, almost like a painting.
ReplyDeleteAnd your dress is amazing! Very David Bowie, indeed. :-)
Labyrinth, yes!!
ReplyDeleteI just adore this dress! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT.
ReplyDeleteI like that you're title is pink today and Dainty Squid's is blue. It's cute that you're color titles line up.
haha! that's funny, I didn't even notice that. Did I mention I am the most unobservant person ever?
DeleteDid you ever watch Zenon Girl of the 21st Century? This outfit totally reminds me of that! It's great!

No I haven't! I should check it out :)
Deleteoh my dear god...please don't ever stop wearing that dress. IT.IS.PERFECT.
ReplyDeleteThat's an amazing door.
ReplyDelete"You remind me of the babe!" I love everything about this outfit - that dress is beyond amazing! Man, I watched my Labrynth tape so much that it broke... well 2 of them broke - my mum had to keep re-buying it for me. Jarryd the Goblin King = first love haha! That and 'Willow' :)
ReplyDeleteI love the teardrop door - I wouldn't be able to replace it either :)
Luvluv

That dress is sooo darling and that color looks great on you! Nothin wrong with a little Bowie! :)
ReplyDeleteThat door is wonderful, don't replace it! Maybe you can fix it up a little? Either way if you replace it you should hang it on a wall or SOMETHING!
Definitely looks like a perfectly Bowie-inspired dress. So much fun! And I have to say, I'm kind of digging that it looks like it's crushed velvet. Not really a fabric you see a whole lot anymore!
ReplyDelete(Oh and I'm totally with you on the whole Labyrinth thing. I can quote 99% of the lyrics to the entire movie. It'd be almost embarrassing, if it wasn't so awesome)

No replacing that door, it is too cute and perfect.
ReplyDeleteSo is this dress. Adorable and it looks super soft!
Aw! Love your outfit! The necklace looks so cute on you! I'm so glad you like it!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is by far my favorite outfit post, yet! That dress is killer!
ReplyDeleteMmmm!!! That's my very favorite movie of all time! Jareth was the first man I was in love with...which means Ive had excellent taste since the early age of 5. haha!
ReplyDeleteI really love your dress too. The brighter the better :)
This outfit just plain rocks!
ReplyDeleteoooh, a little shortie dress! i like it! and i can see how you would be reminded of ziggy stardust :) xx
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome dress!! Totally ziggy stardust! :D
ReplyDeleteYes! You are completely accurate with your dress reference. :) Too awesome.
ReplyDeleteAlso, PLEASE do not replace that door. I would KILL to have a door like that! It is gorgeous, even in its aged and peeled state. Its so very charming :)
I really like those glasses! (& dress, and shoes...) lovely! :D
ReplyDeleteI love your dress but I would never be able to pull it off!
ReplyDeleteThanks Elycia... I can't get Dance Magic out of my head now! xx Melanie
ReplyDeleteLabyrinth! <3 I can definitely see why you feel a bit Ziggy wearing this dress - that was the first thing I thought of when I saw it! It looks adorable with that belt & knee socks. Also, that door is gorgeous. I wouldn't have the heart to replace it.
ReplyDeleteyou have the cutest smile!
ReplyDeleteHow funny, I was thinking you totally reminded me of Aladdin Sane era David Bowie! Great outfit and lovely smile.
