Good Times on the Playground

Diamond Stud Earrings c/o Anjolee

Hiya! How was your weekend?  This past Saturday in NYC was gorgeous weather-wise, so I took the opportunity to visit the Brooklyn Flea with a couple of my friends.  I wanted to be comfortable because I knew I would be doing a lot of walking around, so I chose to wear this lightweight striped dress from Lulu’s (that I got on sale for $7!).  On top, I wore this dusty rose cargo jacket from H&M that I wear to death in the spring- it’s the perfect lightweight jacket and I feel like it goes well with everything!  Lastly, I added these diamond stud earrings that the lovely people at Anjolee sent to me.  I love their pretty petal shape and thought it would be fun to add a little bit of sparkle to this casual outfit with these diamond studs!

My friends Babe (top) and Arianna (bottom)- they’re such goofballs!

Aren’t Ariana’s silver sneakers so cool?  This lady even stopped her at the Brooklyn Flea to ask where she had purchased them!  It was our first time visiting the Fort Greene location and it was so fun to browse all of the shops and discover little hidden treasures everywhere.  I had lots of people to shop for (birthday presents, mother’s day, and such) and I found some gifts for them that I think they will absolutely love.  After shopping at the Flea, we decided to take a little break in this playground that I had spotted earlier that day.  We had a blast goofing around on the jungle gym for a little while, then we decided we better get out of the way of the little kids who were already playing there :)

 More pictures from the Brooklyn Flea coming later this week! :)

    You look so stunning and I adore your dress! I love playgrounds, especially swings, although I get a little dizzy on them now that I’m older. I can’t wait to see the Brooklyn Flea Market pictures.

    $7! Seriously? No. Fair.
    Your bangs I have to say, once again, look amazing on you.
    And your friends look like a ball of laughs. I’ll have to check out the BFlea next time.

      Yep, I don’t think I’ve worn it around you yet! The Fort Greene location is great! I would love to do more exploring in the neighborhood too, it seemed really nice! =)

    Oh man! You’ve reminded me that I haven’t been to our local flea market in ages. Usually it’s nothing fantastic, just like piles of gross wigs and mismatched shoes, but it’s fun to go people-watching.
