it's that time again to show you some of my current favorites from the interwebs and dream of how i'd pair them if only i could find a way to become independently wealthy so want would always equal have. on a somewhat related note, i'm glad to finally be dressing like a woman rather than an androgynous preteen, aren't you?
the first look includes a white chiffon blouse i already own and a pretty vintage tribal print skirt from pasadena vintage. i'd probably also pair this with ballet flats and bouncy hair and wear it seven days a week.
the second look actually isn't a look, but i'd wear it to dress up a simple outfit. included: a vintage faux fur collar and one of my great-grandma's old rhinestone brooches, as well as (be still, my beating heart) ritzy gold flats from wanted. i'd probably wear this with skinny jeans and a striped shirt. or maybe colorful cropped pants and a cream sweater. my point is - the possibilities are endless!
the third look is for when i have to dress up or want to be taken seriously (read: when i have to meet a client that may not take me seriously because of my small stature and soft voice). it's so ladylike, isn't it? shown is a vintage beaded clutch that's sadly been collecting dust, and a gorgeous velvet blazer from fine and dandy vintage.
whether i go to the rodeo, take a walk through the country, or just go to the grocery store, this outfit would make me feel lighthearted and cheerful all day - a side effect of a good novelty print. the amazing vintage rodeo print skirt is mine all mine, and the ugglebo lisbon clogs should be!
what are you dreaming of today?
Those are fun... I really, really wanted a faux fur vintage vest, but it's already January, and it will be warm here in two months. Having a major skirt deficit, and I always see cute ones in blogs and on people, but they look so awful on me.
ReplyDeleteI love pasadenavintage, have just added them to my favourite shops on etsy. Nice choices! Those gold flats are ace. Nice choices! I too dress more like an androgynous teen and have to make a conscious effort to dress like a lady. x
ReplyDeleteahhhh i can't get enough of that rodeo skirt! :)
ReplyDeletei love this feature of yours.
btw girl fiancee, have i told you lately how MEOW your shorter hair is? ;) love and miss you!!!
I like all of these, but my favorite is by far the last one. I want something in that pattern!
ReplyDeletethose clogs are pretty sweet! i finally got a pair from lotta of stockholm and just patiently waiting their arrival!

oh my! great finds! especially the skirts!!
ReplyDeletei was actually dreaming of doing some thrifting today since it's 1/2off at our local salvation army. but, i had no sitter and three sick kids so i never made it out. next time!
such a great idea for a post! love it!
ReplyDeleteSo many fun pieces! I think I still dress like an androgynous preteen, how'd you know?!
ReplyDeleteloving that skirt and those clogs! too bad we can't share clothing!
ReplyDeletefour jedis, i know what you mean about the vest; i've been wanting one too, but after i had my christmas money i thought, "i won't be able to wear it for too long before it will be warm again!"
ReplyDeletenicola, that's why i do outfit posts, because it encourages me to dress like a woman rather than a slob!
micaela, isn't that skirt he best?! i almost passed out when i saw it! love you, fiancee!
april, i wish i could just find that fabric so i could make all sorts of things from it!
cb, i had actually just heard of lotta from stockholm the other day. i can't wait to see how you style them!
yellow finch, sometimes i have thrifting plans too, but my problem is i seem to run out of time. i hope you get to go soon!
katy, thank you!
caitlin, you're funny!
maria, i know, if i lived closer to you, i'd be going through your closet all the time!
Great ideas! I especially love the idea for the second look- sounds so pretty and timeless!
