uptown girls, downtown charm



Today we headed to the ever-lovely, ever-under construction historic downtown Wilmington. This year will mark our second year participating in the Martin Luther King Day parade and we needed to work out some final details. We've been looking forward to it all year, more on that later this week.
Our appointment brought us to the Hannah Block 2nd Street Community Arts center -a favorite of my youth
as well as the New Hanover County Public Library -where K Lou wowed me with her extensive knowledge of the Dewey decimal system.
During our increasingly elaborate photo shoot a tugboat began showing off for us! The captain even said hello over the loudspeaker, how's that for southern hospitality?

Today I'm wearing:
white tissue turtleneck: JCrew
black tulip skirt: Target
very berry "premium" tights: Target

taupe suede flower shoes: 007 -which is now gone, but they're irregular choice brand
gray grandpa cartigan: JCrew
pouf headband: JCrew
black coat: Forever21
gray satchel bag: Banana Republic
necklace: gift from K Lou
bracelet (that broke during pictures): JCrew

K Lou is wearing:

retro sunglasses: Steve Madden brand
gray wrap cardigan: Target
black & white marbled sweater dress: Forever21
black turtleneck: ? no label, beats us!



Red Suede Gloves: Issac Mizrahi for Target
Charm bracelet: gift from Aunt Krissy

Electric blue tights: Marshalls
Cream cable knit knee socks: Marshalls
Grey boots: Target
