miliscary.


first, let me say thank you to hannah from london rose for doing the awesome feature on me yesterday. i will link her again in case you didn't get a chance to see it and read the interview. also thank everyone for the visit and for the sweet comments. i feel honored to have you join me in this crazy stylin' world we live in. thank you.

also please don't think i'm going to be donning military shit every day from now on. this was originally going to go with the military done minimal post i did the other day, but it was too long. and as i have been lying in bed in fetal all day with cramps, and didn't really want to do a-sweaty-miserable-tessa-in-bed-wearing-a-tee-and-hot pad-shoot, this is all i have.

now the biggest surprise about today's post is the "what's in my bag" feature. i have seen these on many blogs and i am mystified by everyone's nice and organized bags, so i had to show you the crazy person that i am, with my absolute mess of a bag. this is honesty at it's finest. have a good laugh at my expense! love.

p.s. most importantly--the iphone is missing from the bag because it was taking the pic. phew!

denim jacket: thrift and made into vest, tee: hubby's v-neck, shorts: thrift, leggings: american apparel, boots: sam edelman zoe, hat: vintage, belt: vintage.

purse photos taken with iphone. sorry for the crappy quality.

bag contents: wallet with drivers license, debit card, many unneeded business cards, a ton of receipts and no money, meds, 10 lipsticks, wet ones, bluetooth, comptoir sud pacifique (vanilla banana, the only perfume i can wear), calendar that i haven't touched in a year, iphone, earbuds, hand lotion, gum, crystals and rocks, leftover lighters from my smoking days, doggie poo bags, sharpies, hair clips and a scrunchie,  tampons, loose change and toothpicks. i'm sure i'm missing some items. as you can see there is no way i could take every item out and photograph them, it would have taken all day and night. if you have any questions regarding the contents of my purse, e-mail me. love.

  29. I really love those booties you're wearing. And the color of those leggings contrasting with the olive green of the shorts. Makes a lovely combination.

    The inside of your bag looks like mine! I have no order to my bag either. I dig around in it for half an hour before I find what I'm looking for!
