(To celebrate my birthday) My guy carried me across the tide to this lil island to enjoy some solitary sun and watch the waves together. It was nice to get out, somehow our snow dog became a beach dog but no complaints here! ๐ 1970s floral dress ๐ฅพ thrifted @sperry [ID: 1) Ciara wearing a 70s linen dress and diy cane in front of some waves on the beach 2) Shelby (brown and white husky) and Bobby had walked down to the water 3) selfie of me and Shelby (blue eyed brown and white husky)

1/14/21 today I turned 23. It was honestly not the best day but my family was there for me and thereโs not much more I could ask for. Depression has just been a heavy cloud lately so the storms are tough. I made the most of it and so in the end Iโll say it was good but Iโm glad today is over, Iโm wiping off my makeup and may stay that way for a month. Which I would like to become more confident without makeup. I doubt all women of the 40s spent excess money on that. Who knows. Anyway hereโs to a new year everyone, cheers ๐ฅ [ID: Ciara is standing in her room, hair curled makeup done, wearing a pink sweater over a teal dress with a brown belt and her DIY glitter cane]
Also, these came in last night. Pink is 1930s and handmade, blue is 1940s. Iโm surprised they both fit so well because I ordered them without measuring myself ๐
I need to find a longer, preferably darker slip for the 40s dress. Itโs also very fragile.
I now own an item of clothing (mostly dresses) from each decade between 1930 and 1990. Now to hunt down 1900s, 1910s, and 1920s.

Etsomยทniยทaย (/etหsรคmnฤษ/), noun, 1. a sleep disorder caused by obsessive Etsy browsing. 2. The surprising arrival of weird handmade merchandise ordered when one is only half conscious. (True story.) 3. An excuse for me to be an obnoxious, snarky New Yorker once per week.

Finished the Egyptian jumper last week, finally got round to taking a few pics!
Paired with slacks from an original 1940 pattern and pockets drafted from a dressmaking book also dated to 1940
The original pattern had sleeves and closed at the left shoulder with buttons and loops, I altered the closure to one with press studs as I felt it looked neater and is still period appropriate. Pictured on the right is the same closure on the Highland jumper from circa 1934
Another ootd thatโs vintage inspired but completely thrifted modern clothes! The only real vintage here is my hat but a great outfit will always boost my confidence, true vintage or not! [ID: Ciara standing on her porch wearing an orange top, cream hat, and cream skirt with warm colored mcm clocks and her diy glitter cane]
Me browsing vintage clothing: Honestly quite cute. โฆWhich means that it probably wonโt fit me.
