I like vintage looks. I have a tacky gene that loves to mix prints. I have fun trying new things with my hair. I'm a bargain hunter and hardly ever buy an item full price. I love to sew, and feel pleased as punch when I wear something of my own design.

Wearing Old and Older
Butterfly Earrings and Multi-strand Bracelet: Gifts from Hubby
Brooch and Blazer: Thrifted
Watch: Hubby's watch sized down
Dress: Macy's (clearance)
Navy Suede Heels: Gift from Mom
80s Blazer, meet 2013's Dress. Wait, are you sure you've never met before? You two are hitting it off like old friends!
I was pretty surprised how perfectly the Teal in the dress and blazer matched! It might have went to my head a bit. :o)
I used the same trick as last time (Here) of layering a skirt under the dress to give it a smidge more length. I even used houndstooth again. How weird that I have two skirts in the same print and colors! Usually I don't buy clothes very similar like that, but they have very different shapes so both keep passing my closet purges. One is a pencil skirt (Here), the other is flippy (Here).

:o) Thank you Lenya!
DeleteJJ! hi! So nice to hear from you and see this fun post. I have never done that but I am so tempted to, especially seeing your celebration and fun! That color of blue looks awesome on you. Did you change your hair? It has been FOREVER since I have seen you { well, 3 months } lol ♥, Renae
ReplyDeleteHi Renae, Welcome back!!! My hair is ever changing as I grow it out. When it gets long enough I am going to chop it off short again to donate to Locks of Love. :o) I couldn't donate last time 'cause I had dyed my hair, this time I'm keeping the color to my bangs only.
DeleteWhat a great mix of fabrics, colors, prints, styles and items. They all look really great together on you. I especially love the bit of skirt coming out from under the dress. Well, all of it looks wonderful together. Good job!
