Thrifting Trip

 I love a good thrift store, who doesn't, and last month I treated myself to a trip to Thriftique with a goal of checking out men's button-downs and jeans and to try on whatever else caught my eye. Here's how I started: Leather Jacket-- Nordstrom , Tunic- WildFang , Leggings- Zara , Sneakers- Vans Men's button-down and jeans. I was looking for men's jeans for a more authentic kind of boyfriend look.  short-sleeve men's button-down with the same jeans A third men's button-down and these women's tie dye shorts. I think the look on my face says that I was enjoying this combo.  Anthropologie Dress, yes it had pockets, but wasn't really feeling it very much at all.  I saw a similar dress out in the wild after my trip, and while I enjoy the color and pattern (it didn't have pockets) I wasn't feeling this as my summer vibe. I was trying to like this dress, thinking I could wear it for work, or maybe even style it down (with the leather jacket from ...

White Denim Jacket Part 2

 Here again we have a white denim jacket for spring from some outfit pics taken a few weeks ago. You may recall last week's post featuring the same jacket here .  In this look I went with a more romantic and bohemian styling.  jacket- J.Crew , jumpsuit--Thrifted from Fashion Fix , blouse-Banana Republic(similar here ), necklace s/ bracelets /rings-Nordstrom (other), Mejuri earrings / belt -Amazon, watch- Monroe , bag- Samara , boots- DSW I love the contrast of rustic pieces like the jacket and cowboy boots with the floral oversized jumpsuit and gold jewelry. This belt is part of a set I got at Amazon, which I realize is a retailer that needs to be held accountable for it's practices and CEO. I've re-purchased better versions of this belt from Bella Belt  (the instagram adds got me)and I no longer plan on sporting the Amazon belts or promoting them in anyway.  It's a fine line to walk when thinking about the power of your purchase. Do I agree with the actions of...

White Denim Jacket Part 1

 As of last summer a go-to garment for warm weather has become this pleated skort/tennis skirt. And lately I've been loving to pair it with this white denim jacket. Big fan in general of white denim jackets for spring as seen in this post from two years ago. And I apparently love them for fall as well as seen in this post . 😉 Here, as in previous looks I've kept the outfit to a mostly black and white palette. jacket-J.Crew(similar here ), t-shirt-Stevie Nicks(current merch here  more general options from Etsy here ), skort/hat-Gap(similar here and here ), bag- Everlane , sneakers- Vans I love the graphic aspect of these photos of the cloudy sky against the lush green of Frick Park here in Pittsburgh. It's been a chillier spring than in years past, but we've had a few warm days for bare legs and light jackets. We'll see what the coming summer brings.  Be sure to check back for part 2 of this season's white denim jacket outfits.  And here are some littles that...
