Old Souls









Details:
Dress/Belt: Decades Vintage (In SLC)
Tights: Victoria's Secret
Shoes-Thrifted


If I could only wear vintage clothing for the rest of my life. Oh boy. I would smell like a Grandmother's attic.  I definitely might have yesterday at church... But in my defense, I was not only wearing a vintage dress, but a vintage corset also. Yes. I wore a corset. I found it at the same store where I chanced upon this perfect dress. It wasn't uncomfortably tight--in fact, in the words of my new friend Katia "It just feels like a tight hug". And it did! I mean sitting down felt kind of weird at times, but it was still nice because it kept me all smoothed out under this dress. 

Interesting story about the corset actually; I picked up the only one that I thought was cute, and I tried it on. To my excitement, it fit perfectly! What a great chance! And then after buying it, I happened to glance down at the size. Which was actually my exact bra size. Well now, that is pretty miraculous. I am in love with it!

Nancy and I have actually made a decision to start collecting more vintage clothing and accessories. We are huge fans of beautiful clothing, and we want more of it! It's too bad we have almost no money...

So that's that. We've decided that we are officially vintage ladies. We need to go find ourselves some shops a bit closer than Decades... SLC is a bit of a commute.

Love, Sarai

City of Salt Pt. 1













{I promise I don't take myself seriously... the gate was running away from me, and Syd got a shot right as I awkwardly looked at her while trying to pull the gate back to me...}


{Also, my best friend is such a babe}

Details:
cardigan-no idea
Dress-Romy
Shoes-thrifted
watch-Nancy's grandma
belt-F21
Sunglasses-Icing

These are only a few of the millions and billions of pictures that Sydney and I took the other day when we were in SLC. We went down simply to have a girls day. It started at Toasters, where we got the most delicious of all avocado sandwiches. Then we moseyed on over to the library, where we ended up buying a handful of delightful and fantastic books. I have a thing for books...

Then we took a kajillion pictures on the roof. It was great. Sydney makes me look fantastic, even when I'm looking a lil bit frumptastic.

After some book perusal, and a random creepy guy following us around, we chanced upon the capitol building. It was a marvelous place for a photoshoot, as you can see. And these are honestly not even close to half of the pictures we took. It gets a little ridiculous when we get together...

But, we met a strange political man there... more on that another time..

For the moment, I'll just wax poetic about how hectic and crazy my life can be. I'm looking into getting a car, and I'm starting a second job, just as finals are about to start.. why am I so crazy?

Also. That musician that I have a crush on? He's pretty fantastic. We've been talking to each other for quite some time, and we finally hung out in real life, and I must say, I've never met anyone quite like him. It's strange, how you can just be minding your own business, when everything suddenly changes, and you have to just gasp and go "oh. So that's the reason". That was a bit of a ramble. But suffice to say, I don't always make the smartest choices with men. I've been known to give people the benefit of the doubt more often than not, and it can be a bit of a challenge. But. Everything is wonderful now :)

Love, Sarai

Sundance



I wish I could live at the Sundance Film Festival. It was this incredible meeting of minds, and really, truly, I loved every second. The coonskin caps? That was classic. Then these fantastic SLC based musicians called Bramble just had us tapping our feet while they made sweet folk music. I loved it. 

Oh! The best parts were meeting Nancy's friend Nico there, as he is just fantastic. And also, we went to Joseph Gordon-Levitt's studio where we learned all about hitRECord, the crazy awesome collaborative music scene. We're recording songs for them soon :)

Love, Sarai
