Blue Roses


Oh, how this skirt reminds me of The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams   I remember when I first read the play and how much I could relate to Laura at that point in my life.  I wouldn't consider myself a Laura as much today, but my heart still hurts for her, the younger me and others who struggle with self worth, finding confidence and being different.  If you've never read the play, I highly recommend it!

- Jim to Laura, Scene 7 of The Glass Menagerie by: Tennessee Williams

    1. Thanks Michelle, they are my favorite boots! The style is inspired by 1930's motorcycle boots. :)

    1. Thanks, it even has a built in layer of tulle! Etsy is the my favorite place to find 50's cirlce skirts. :)

  3. The Glass Menagerie is truly one of my favorites! And that skirt is so lovely, the color is gorgeous, and the length and volume is perfect.

    I feel like I should point out that Tennessee Williams is actually the author of The Glass Menagerie though! :)
