Back in the circus

I was feeling particularly whimsical when I took these.  I've been wanting to wear this lavender dress with something (despite its not-always-flattering shape), and I remembered I had this circus print top in my closet... so I decided to become a sort of kawaii-inspired tightrope walker (?) for the day.  The addition of the lavender satchel made me feel like I was going to run away and join the circus.

Outfit Details:
Lavender Shirred Waist Dress: Forever 21
Circus Print Top: Forever 21
Chiffon Bow Neck Tie: ASOS
Black knee socks: old (similar here)
Lavender hair bow: Clip a Bow Boutique
Kimchi Blue Suitcase Satchel: Urban Outfitters
Dance Instead of Walking Heel: ModCloth









Confession: I'd really love to learn how to do trapeze someday.  They have a trapeze school on top of a building in New York, right by the Hudson River/Chelsea Piers area.  If I ever get the courage, I'd love to give it a try.  After I go to puppet school.

Have a magical Monday!
