Fashion Therapy - Psychadelichic

I found this vintage dress a few months ago and have only worn it once before. I love the psychadelic colors and print. Can you believe the label says it's a size 12? I have to mention that I live in a town full of aging hippies, and I was really catching the eye of old men today; maybe I reminded them of their long-lost love at Woodstock? Or of some wonderful acid trip they had as a youth? Let me just say, men over forty don't generally tell me "that's a great dress." I guess I need to find some trippy fabric and start making loose dresses! While trying to figure out "against the sun" photos (any tips? Do I have to use the flash?) I realized that the dress is see-through in the light! Good thing I was inside most of the day, I think one of my co-workers would have warned me if it was that bad...

When I was taking it off for post-work shower time, I ripped open the front seam, whoops! I can fix it! I bought these canvas wedges three years ago and I can't believe how much I wear them now. They sat in my closet for many, many, many moons, but have been revived. Now I need to figure out how to clean them!
