Birthday Outfit #1

For my birthday I really wanted to do something different with my hair and I wanted to experiment with the victory roll. So I did! It's not really traditional, but oh well. Also this was the outfit I left the house with but I promptly changed when I received a lovely vintage dress from my sister Sarah. I will do another post of that soon.


These are one of the pairs of shoes Ty got me for my birthday *swoon*. I love them so much, and for-see myself wearing them all the time.


dress vintage/the loved one
belt thrifted
shoes gift/anthropologie
bracelet gift from dad/fire finch

I wanted to say thank you all so much for your sweet sweet comments and well wishings for my birthday. You all are so kind.

xo,
 Em

    I hope you have a splendid birthday. You are lovely. The roll is cute, however Victory Rolls are specifically called Victory Rolls because you need to have two so it looks like a "V" for victory to support the troops of WWII (or now! hehe). Either way, this is very pretty and sweet!!!!
