ATM, Grocery….I tell you – even after all these years in New York I still think American words for little things are…. funny (in a good way).

I like wearing the Litas with bells (imagine saying those words to a guy. He’d think wtf are you referring to). To me, a massive flare demands an equally aggressive pairing.

CUTEEE!!
and functional good grief its so freaking cold these days!
Ife' says:
So funny! That big ATM sign totally jumped out at me as I scrolled through these pictures (after I finished gawking at your coat) ATM is an acronym for “Automatic Teller Machine” (you probably already knew that, but I know a lot of people who don’t so just in case… it makes so much more sense when you think of it that way). You’ve got me on a mad hunt to find wide bells like yours, by the way…
Cousin Honey Vintage says:
those bells toll for me…and the coat is killer!
