The Answer is Blowin' in the Wind


I'm really excited that this is the first Guest Post that I've done! Amber is such a sweet person and I love how poetic and honest she is on her blog!

My name is Victoria of Justice Pirate. I live in northern New Jersey where it is still snowy.
Mostly I don't mind the cold, but the day that I took these photos, it was very windy; about 15 degrees without the cold wind. I even teared a bit while taking these photos.

I wear vintage clothing between the 1940s-1970s (I'd wear 30s, but I don't own any). Sometimes I mix them together because I just like so many styles in general, including periodical fashions from much further "days of old".



There were a couple people flying a kite nearby. It was really amazing to see it sway violently around in the wind. I love wind and the thoughts of whispers and secrets moving from place to place as the trees embrace them.


I like to play around with my hair and this is probably my favorite hairstyle. I mainly wear my hair down, but when it's dirty, it's up! I don't wash my hair every day because it's just so much healthier for your hair and makes me hair grow very fast!



A closer shot of it from a different day.

Vintage 70s blouse: Dear Golden
Maxi Skirt: I've had it for so long that I don't recall.

What a pretty outfit! It reminds me so much of my big sister - except the heels. She hates heels. :D

Your style is lovely, and I adore your hair! Lately I have started to miss my long hair a little - but not enough to be truly sad over the loss of it. :D I'll have fun growing it out again.

Anyway, great post! :D
