trippin'

Last month I spent a weekend in Chico visiting family and scaring the locals with my sartorial selections. Maxi skirts and high waisted anythings aren't really of-the-moment where my taller, whiter relatives reside. In the land of big box stores and the big trucks they fill, I'm always inspired to dress big.

My grandma wasn't too fond of 'that thing going on with [my] head' but she thought my dollar bill ring was 'pretty neat.'

A $10 manicure and Best Western night later, we drove home listening to blues with the windows down. Chico, there's nothing wrong with going big.
