Pandas and Bows

Remember when I mentioned that Jacob got me a dress as one of my birthday gifts? Let me tell you, this is no ordinary dress! It was made by I'm Your Present, a ridiculously cute and awesome indie shop that is quickly growing in popularity. If you haven't visited their store, do it. You can thank me later. =)



These photos were actually taken while on a weekend trip to Port Ludlow with a group of good friends. Nice change of scenery... and the view was gorgeous! Olivia suggested that Jacob should snap a picture of me getting ready. Soo... shoes half on.

It is quite a short dress! No room for modesty here... haha.






The house had all sorts of grand windows looking out into the beautiful forest.



The front of the house was pretty too!



Panda dress - I'm Your Present; Hair bow - Chubby Bunny x Acrylicana; Necklace - LORiOLA; Shoes - BCBG

I was also super psyched when I saw this Chubby Bunny x Acrylicana limited edition bow release. Michelle Nguyen of Chubby Bunny makes these adorable hair bows, and for this collaboration, Mary Winkler (Acrylicana) did the illustration printed on the bow. Also available in pink!

The super cute glass bird necklace is by Lori Flanders of LORiOLA. I have purchased quite a few necklaces from her and they are the best! Cute, great quality, and they come with this adorable lock and key toggle clasp.

And... the ring. Made by me! Artwork by Hannah Lynn. I'll be selling it on my new website when that finally launches... =)

  1. This dress looks amazing on you Kelsea! It's funny I featured this dress on my blog a while back. It is so cute! I have a couple of I''m Your Present shirts and I love them.

    Another way you could wear that dress is with tights, will help with the short factor and you can wear it in the fall.

    Can't wait to check out your new website :)

    1. Thanks, Aubree! You're totally right - tights are a great suggestion. It's funny, I don't own any and never think to add tights to an ensemble... but I should probably invest in a pair! As much as I love it, whenever I walk around in this dress I feel really self conscious worrying it's riding up... haha.

  2. Cute outfit, but what's up with that picture of you sitting in the window sill? I can't be the only one getting an 'Alice in Wonderland' vibe from that picture.
