Pink Elephants On Parade

The sunshine might be bright in these pictures, but a storm was blowing in (as the wild wind and waves did attest). I probably flashed a few pelicans in this mini dress, but fortunately there was no one else at the beach to witness my skirt whipping around. I really have to start wearing bike shorts again...
How cute is this little pink donkey brooch? The blog post title is a slight misnomer, since the pin obviously isn't an elephant. Still, it is pink and quite adorable. It's from my sponsor Luxxor Vintage that specializes in vintage and antique jewelry. All of her pieces are so special and unique. I'm really love the touch of personality a little brooch like this one adds to an outfit.

I love the denim jacket paired with the dress. The brooch is such a nice touch. I've had weird weather as well. One minute it's sunny, then next minute it's pouring!!

A pink donkey certainly adds some personality! I really need to invest in a pair of bike shorst this summer; there were far too many unfortunate moments last year!

Lovely outfit, what a cute pin!

@Teddy, thank you, but I'm actually quite bruised and scarred! Those aren't shadows on my knees! But I find that neosporin helps my scars fade overtime, so some that were really noticeable last year are pretty much gone now. :)

The title made me start singing a song from Dumbo the movie. I love little enamel pins.

Aw that is the cutest little brooch! Funny cause just last night I watched this food show where the host went to Beijing and ate (what apparently was a local delicacy) donkey meat. At first it really creeped me out but after seeing all the different dishes they prepared it started to look...quite tasty.

Now that I'm seeing this pin I feel a bit ashamed. Lol.
