Stripes and Plaid

madewell_overalls-15

We’re currently enjoying Pismo Beach and San Luis Obispo, which are both AMAZING!!!  The coastline up here, which is new to me, is seriously breathtaking.  If I wasn’t in a committed relationship with San Diego I would totally consider calling this area home!  I’ll share more from our trip soon, but in the meantime- a style post.  These are the kind of outfits I’m loving for traveling- and these overalls are my jam.  It’s a little campy (no pun intended) to be wearing them while camping, but I can’t help myself.  I’m a sucker for high waisted anything.  And plaid.  And stripes.  I’m basicallly just a sucker.  Ha!  More soon…. xx- Sarah

wearing overalls past the age of ten

 

overalls are back!  last time i owned a pair i was sixteen.  i cut them in half and sloppily sewed embroidered material up the entire length of both legs.  and then i wore them to phish shows.  all of this is to say that i was going through an identity crisis then, and am certainly open to the idea that i might be going through one now.  in spite of this i can’t deny it, i love these overalls.  they make me feel young and cheeky.  BUT you won’t find me DIY’ing them!  i learned my lesson the embarrassing way.

side note:  i googled “overalls phish shows”.  i don’t really know why i thought that would bring to to a picture of myself at age 16 in some horribly crafted overalls, but i kind of did.  it goes without saying, no dice.  but i did come across this DIY overall, and if i’m being honest it does make me feel quite a bit better about myself.  so what do you think?  overalls: yay or nay?  xx- sarah {more after the jump}
