coney island ☀ ☀


a sunny july 4th in coney island! i went on the wonder wheel, ate coney cones and smiled til' my cheeks hurt. there is something perfectly nostalgic about coney island, as if it was frozen in time. the pictures i took from the ferris wheel almost look like they could have been taken 40 years ago (maybe if they were a little sepia toned ;) ).

i've been saving this dress for months just for the day! i love the bright baby blue color, and of course the sweet collar detail! it felt perfectly patriotic with a little added pop of red!

dress: for sale in my store
hat/shoes: vintage
bag: c/o modcloth

oh you look fabulous, girl! I love your blue polka dot dress and how you've matched it with that red bag! Red with blue is my favourite colour combination and I think it looks even better with those photos, it's like a perfect match! :)

If I ever go to the east coast, I'd definitely visit Coney Island. It does look so fun and historic. And Nathan's Hot Dogs are sooo tasty! Your dress is super cute and I'm glad you had fun! <3
