Bell Telephone Co 1926

Bell Telephone Co 1926

Cole and I were in downtown Royal Oak today and decided to take some photos by the old Bell telephone building. After living in Marblehead, MA where many houses dated back to the 1680's it's pretty funny to think that a building from 1926 is considered old. Ah, the Midwest. So I'm sporting my new GAP high waist flares and I love them! I returned the second pair since they were too long even with my platforms, but I think I might still order them in petite off the website. It feels so strange to be wearing such wide-legs again- it really brings me back to college when all I wore were wide-leg or boot-cut jeans. Side note- I love how the button on the waistband is stamped with the date 1969- that was the inspiration for my outfit.

Photos by Cole. Thanks, darling!
