Color!

We had a great time over at the Fashion Fusion event last week, where we did a little trawling of the very fab boutique marketplace, checked out a very impressive runway show and promptly fell in love with this girl's adorable outfit. She's an intern at Baltimore boutique Love Allie for the summer and was dressed up in a bright orange vintage petticoat (as a skirt), yellow vintage blouse (you know how we love a peter pan collar – and, oh! those puffed sleeves!) and perfectly contrasting green sandals. Not that we would have expected anything less, as Love Allie instantly became our Favorite Boutique We Have Not Actually Been To (Yet). They had such an amazing selection of well-priced pieces from small, innovative designers (plus an arsenal of amazing vintage items), which just may have inspired us to blow our No Spending rule a tad. Um. Oops. Still, with so much great stuff—and such well-dressed staff—I really can't wait to see the store in person.
