What I Wore: The Rustbelt



This outfit made me feel very much like a 1950's camp counselor. I love this blouse I got last year from Penguin and these shorts were found on my thrifting excursion! And I love that my belt matches my sandals!!
On Saturday I rode my bike down to Ferndale's Rustbelt Market with Tripp in tow (oh yeah I carry Tripp in my backpack... yep). I met up with Christina and Dennis of Perfect Laughter, a Detroit art blog, were selling prints and whatnot. Of course people flocked to Tripp as he put on his cute face and rolled over waiting for pets. He's a real ham.


It was the first time I had gone there, the building used to be an Old Navy Outlet, and I can say I was pleasantly surprised! I loved the different types of booths, there was food, beads, art, vintage & handmade... It was awesome, and a great mix of people.
Christina, Tripp, and I headed across the street for lunch at the W.A.B. which was great sitting outside, and with a well behaved dog! He's doing so well with training. Before I rode home I of course had to take a picture for my Tripp on Stuff tumblr (check it out)

Tripp over a display! ahahaha!
That night I rode back down to Ferndale to hook up with Christina and Dennis again then later got a text from Sara saying she saw my bike and hooked up with that gang at the Loving Touch (a pool hall) later... And man I had some good beers, won a pool game, and rode my bike home in a cool breeze. It was a sweet day/night.
Sunday... nothing. Just sat around and gave my Dad a happy pop day call.

If Rust Belt were a hot guy, I'd slip something in its drink.
i've been meaning to go to rust belt, i'm glad you had fun! also, love the green and yellow combination.
I like your hair in your "camp counselor" look. We have a MakerFaire coming up in our area this weekend and I'm very excited about that.
Dude, I STILL have not been there. Need a life.
You should do Tripp on your Mom.
Love the top and the hair!
