Today was my birthday. Although it was a pretty regular day over all, I did enjoy getting dressed up for a spot of grocery shopping. The same day I came across that dress from my last post, I found this lemon shirt also. I have quite the thing for shirts, I like them especially because of their obvious masculinity and also just because they are comfy. I was thrilled to find this one. It reminds me of a shirt from a bowling uniform. Lovely and retro and very 50s, even though it probably only just about survived the 80s and 90s. The collage in my head formed the minute I saw it. I love a 'housewife' ribbon in the hair, or just a waist tie from another shirt in my case!

oo love the bag
shirts are great because they can be either dressed up or down
The retro style is great on you!!! You have the perfect hips for it--those capris look awesome.
And I LOVE that bag :)
Happy birthday! I love the retro housewife look - and I never thought to tie a piece of cloth around my head as a headband like that! Is it just a remnant?
Happy birthday! I adore your outfit.
You do look so retro and cool, very pretty :) The shirt fits great!
