spots and stripes

I'd like to take this opportunity, and this outfit post, to introduce you guys to my newest sponsor: Spotted Moth! I blogged about the fun new shop a little bit ago, and now, happily, they've taken up semi-permanent residence in my sidebar. (Speaking of which, if anyone else is interested in having an ad up over yonder, shoot me an email. I'd like to get everything squared away by July 1st, and it's first come, first serve, so time is tight!)

When they offered to let me try out a piece from the shop, I immediately honed in on this Oh Barnacles! Dress. It caught my eye with its simple shape and classic navy stripes, and won my heart with thoughtful details like pockets and a drawstring waist (meaning it's nicely adjustable to various measurements and fit preferences.) As a reminder, you can use the code RINGO at checkout over on Spotted Moth for a 15% discount. I'm hoping we can do a giveaway as well some time next month for you guys!

And while we're on the subject of giveaways, there's a semi-Pains of Being Pure at Heart-themed giveaway, involving one of these brand spankin' new tote bags, in the works! I'm planning on timing it with the debut of our little travel video from February, so stay tuned :n )
