line & dot black silk jacket / $94
Fair Park #4
The Cotton Bowl
Ohhhhhhh this jacket…
is outta control.
I picked it up at local boutique Milk+Honey.
A lot more than I generally spend, but was a necessity once on.
While taking these photos, I got a nice surprise!
It happens that my brother works in administration at Fair Park.
It happened that he was taking a breather and walking in a random direction.
In which he happened to stumble upon his sister photographing!
fun.
Instead of modernizing the Cotton Bowl stadium smack in the center of Dallas,
major football events that used to take place here now happen in Arlington (which is not Dallas).
That’s a bummer.
Fair Park is crumbling.
But these once-grand, public grounds could be refurbished and used for many types of events.
There are so many beautiful structures, halls and much impressive artwork.
Today Nick showed me a vestibule where murals were discovered underneath coats of white paint.
There are small spots delicately sanded down revealing bright, bold colors.
From floor to domed ceiling.
Of course, no money is available to complete this project right now.
It’s such a shame to see an amazing public area unsupported and unused.
What can be done to change this?

Hi there. Welcome to my personal style blog. Main subjects here are THRIFT. STYLE. VINTAGE.
I'm a sucker for a deal.
I'm a sucker for detail.
Not to mention reuse/recycle is tops in my book, as a consumer choice.
My evolving wardrobe has been a fun, creative outlet [most days].
This blog is documentation.
