the circus is in town

This is one of my favorite skirts. EVER.
I found it at my favorite Salvation Army store a few years ago.
It was initially pretty long (almost to the floor).
And I'm not really one to sport long skirts...so my twin hemmed it up for me.
I love the length now.
It reminds me of some kind of a circus tent. Which is pretty cool, right?!
I dunno, maybe it's just me ;)

    Your skirt is soooooo cute!!! I love the buttons and the color! Your layering is awesome, too. I love your hair! I'm trying to grow out my hair now. It takes so darn long to grow it out to your length!

    too cute! i love keepers like that, especially when they start out needing some extra alteration attention, makes them mean even more when the accomplishment is completed. looks grand Christen! and girl, how fast does your hair grow anyways??? lord, mine seems stunted at the mo, dreaming of looong locks just like yours.

    congrats to Kelly too! ♥
