Vitamin Sea

How I loved Monterey, California! 

Its probably one of the most scenic and beautiful spots to visit in all of California. 

I was very lucky to have experienced it for a few days.

 The Monterey beaches were so gorgeous it was like being on a movie set!

I was only there for 4 days but I think I'd like to go back for a week or 2.

While I was in Monterey,

I stopped along the 17 mile drive to shoot a few gorgeous printed vintage dresses.

This peasant dress from Shabbybabe has pretty puff sleeves and high slits on each side. 

I'd say its more of a beach dress than a regular day dress.

 It would make a gorgeous beach cover up to throw on over a bikini!

 I love the print! Its a jungle theme print. 

It has palm trees,elephants, and tigers!!

 When I go to the beach I can never be without a few accessories so, 

I bought this pair of Chacos Sandals over the summer.

 I love them! 

Their fashioned of 100% real leather,

 and I've never worn a sandal so comfortable in my life! 

They were ideal for walking around on the rocky terrain.

 I always put on a vintage leather belt with a boho dress like this! 

Concho belts are truly my favorite accessory. 

I just bought this Choker during the summer. 

Its a tribal themed piece from one of my favorite online jewelry stores,"Child of Wild".

I said to myself this summer I needed "Vitamin Sea" 

and I definitely got a huge dose of it while in California!

Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves

I have a passion for traveling!! I'm always traveling a few times a year like a bohemian gypsy!!!

 I happen to work right by this little turn of the century train station, and it inspired to put a gypsy look together.  

I bought this gorgeous black lace maxi skirt from Free People last year. 

I love it!! Its so Gothic and is a beautiful maxi skirt to wear from day to night. 

Its designed as a handkerchief skirt.

 I put 2 Vintage leather concho belts from shabbybabe with it. 

I have such a huge collection of these concho belts! 

They go with denim, leather, rayon dresses etc,etc. 

The peasant top is also from shabbybabe.

 It has gorgeous lacing that goes down the front. 

Whenever I put this boho peasant blouse on I feel like the ultimate prairie girl! 

Our clothes always need some very cool boho accessories. 

I just bought a few bohemian necklaces from Child of Wild. 

Child of Wild is one of my favorite places to buy 

tribal Jewelry and Bohemian Jewelry, check them out! 

That's where I picked up the tribal choker I'm wearing. 

The boho rings and bracelets are  all vintage jewelry pieces. 

A great pair of shoes always makes the outfit.

 To finish this look I wore another great pair 

of boho leather boots from Jeffrey Campbell that I bought at Free people.  

These leather boots are awesome! Their so comfy and look great!

 I'm so excited to show you more of my Bohemian closet this week! 

I have so much more looks to write about!

Soul on Fire

Shades of orange and yellow remind us of sunsets,fire,and heat.. 

They are the colors of love and celebration..

I instantly fell in love with this dress from shabbybabe when I saw it for the first time!!! 

The bodice has orange lace with corset like lacing going down the front..

Then the dress flares out into this beautiful full skirt design that I love! 

When you put this gypsy dress on you instantly feel like a bohemian goddess! 

I can't explain it,but big full boho dresses always make you feel beautiful and powerful!

 I accessorized the dress with a boho leather conch belt from shabbybabe, and these Jeffrey Campbell boho boots from Free People.

 Go through your closet throw on a beautiful dress and set your soul on fire!
