Eliza Starbuck, Day 30
Mexican Purple
I pulled this purple vintage Mexican dress out of my closet, which is another old favorite that I’ve kept for years. But it never seems to get out often enough. And just by chance I found a house with a yucca plant in the front yard, which is native to Mexico as well. It made the perfect accessory, so I snuck into their yard to take my dailies.
The peep-toe suede shoes are the ones that I bought in Argentina on my honeymoon. We had to splurge on the shoes there because of their lovely quality and classic styles.
It was so bright that I could scarcely keep my eyes from watering, thus the squinting. I folded back my little black dress’ neckline to reveal the pretty ruffled collar underneath, and I threw a blue and red woven belt, another Beacon’s Closet find, over the whole thing. From a distance, the blue and red blend into purple matching the purple dress pretty well.
