Tribal Print, Tattoos & Shabby Apple Giveaway

"More tatts!"
Pigtails exclaimed to Camouflage.
My 2-year old is obsessed with tattoos.
She loves putting them up and down her arms.
They give her pink-dress-clad-self a little edge!

TRIBAL PRINT SKIRT - Sunny Leigh (thrifted)
RED NURSING TANK - Glamourmom
WHITE VEST - Loehmanns
FLORAL HEELS - Rebels
CUFF, NECKLACE - Heavenly Treasures


Today's "Inspiration Monday" look from Two Birds is Eva Mendes.  I decided to wear a tribal print skirt I thrifted from GW with a red nursing tank and a white vest.  I wore this to the Heavenly Treasures Tea Party I attended over the weekend.  I brought Bucket as my date, so I needed to be able to feed him easily.  I decided to mix prints and wore some floral print heels.  I can't wait to show you all what I got from Heavenly Treasures in my next post!

Pigtails shows off her new tatts!

I'm excited to announce that Shabby Apple is going to give one lucky Spinning Threads reader a $50 GIFT CARD!  Shabby Apple is an online boutique that sells fabulously fashionable clothes for women.

    Awesome shoes! Pigtails and tatts, interesting! She'll probably grow out of it. At least they're just stick-on things for now. :P
