pastoral leaves and acorns
I hope all of you fellow Americans had a lovely Thanksgiving. I spent it in Sebastopol at my Aunt’s house, where she lives across the street from a field of grazing cattle. I can’t think of a more scenically appropriate place to spend Thanksgiving!
The vintage purse and bakelite clamper watch are early Christmas presents from my boyfriend, they were pieces that were being sold by my friend at my Vintage Pinball Style event. So I totally got first dibs, muahha ha ha! And surprisingly my boyfriend said, “That’s a cool purse,” before he even knew I had put it aside for myself.
It was my first time out in these Poetic Licence
The acorn brooch was my grandmother’s and it’s become a Thanksgiving tradition to wear it along with my 1940s felt leaves hat. I’m pretty sure I’ve worn this hat on every Thanksgiving since I acquired it. It’s pretty much the most perfect hat for Thanksgiving.
