VM - Kind of an old flower child look

Visible Monday, organized by Patti @ Not Dead Yet style, is here again! Today I have on a kind of flower child look with embroidery and flowers. I tried to find something to match the Inspiration Monday, but I just did not have anything similar except this outfit.




Jacket: Chico's
Top: Dillards
Jeggings: JMS Walmart
Shoes: Ann Klein

Back of the Jacket

Bracelet made by me (under charm bracelet)
Vintage Charm Bracelet 
Art Fair purchase
Ribbon
DIY made by me
2 David Yurman Citrine bracelets
 I love the colors in this top. I remember when I spied this top across the building at Dillards. I just knew it would be mine (if it fit) and it was. I have another one similar except it is tie die colors. Hopefully, I will wear it before summer is over. I do like this jacket, but it is a bit big through the shoulders and I have several that are similar colors, so I am thinking of getting rid of it.

Maybe the reason that I am thinking of flower children and hippies is that I am starting to create some macrame bracelets. We sure did a lot of that in the late 60's and 70's. Did you do macrame and if so, what did you make?

    I love the details of the jacket echoing your blouse. The colors are very pretty. I also love your moccasins!

    I never did macrame, but those plastic lanyard/bracelet things were huge when I was growing up.

    I love jackets with design on the back - and this one is very pretty. Your Arm Party is rocking today; I love all the charms.

    Thanks so much for participating in Visible Monday.

    I'm all for the flower child look! I think it's pretty neat you are making some of your own bracelets. You definitely have an arm party going on there! I love that stacked on look. Debbie http://thriftygirlvintage.com

    Great outfit! I love the detail on the back of the jacket. And no, I don't think I ever did macrame, but I struggled mightily with all craft activities requiring manual dexterity. So there may be some trauma there that I've repressed....
