what to wear for a New Years at home doing cottagecore things.

Image
I did a thing! I refinished my patent black clogs that I hardly ever wore and planned on reselling in ROSEGOLD! I'm basically obsessed. I know for a fact that I will wear these WAYYYYY more! Them came out so great and feel perfect to wear to kick 2020 in the butt! HERE they are before their glow up. I'm wearing: beret-poshmark, sunglasses-oui fresh, miss patina book cat dress-poshmark, tall socks-american apparel (old), rose gold clogs-Sven Clogs (DIY)  I had what one of my friends calls a cottagcore kinda day. My husband went biking so I did some coloring, relearned Mancala (SO worth it), baked marble cupcakes, made sour cream chocolate frosting, got a brand new book my friend gave me that is a Red Riding Hood retelling (so appropriate) and then we ended up ordering in from our favorite local Mexican Restaurant for dinner. It was just what I needed! xx

spotting an end to 2020.

Image
This is definitely THE party look I would love to wear to a date or gala in the winter, hopefully next year! This blouse is also my mom's fave thrifted find of mine for 2020 so it seemed like a great day to showcase it. This outfit is very me...quirky, fun, and practical/comfy on the bottom! These are the boots with the fur rolled up! You saw them rolled down in their last post. I'm wearing: beret-eBay, bag-kate spade (marshall's), tights-amazon (gift from hubby), boots-c/o sven clogs, leather skirt-marshall's, leopard top-thrifted, sunglasses-moschino (poshmark), choker-thrifted  

foo fighters, forever!

Image
It's no secret that the Foo Fighters are my fave band and Dave Grohl's Hannukah Sessions gave me even more to love! If you haven't seen it yet, definitely check out the playlist on youtube or spotify! It's totally worth all 8 covers! So epic! I really hope they do it again next year. I DIY-d this beret a while ago, adding a fun Foo Fighters band patch to a very basic black wool beret (I've had since eighth grade). It's the perfect upgrade and even my brother's Parisian gf said it was a great idea and she might do it too! I'm wearing: sheer long sleeve-from my sister, foo figthers tee-thrifted/vintage, skirt-thrifted (target), socks-old, beret-from france, choker-thrifted, green clogs-c/o sven clogs  This is probably my most high school-me outfit in 2020! Very retro :) xx

bavarian, baby!

Image
I actually had a totally different top planned for this look but this is SO much better! It has a bit of bavarian style and renn faire swag...it just feels super authentically me and so GOOD! Definitely on the repeat list! I can't believe I almost got rid of this velvet corset because it's honestly a size too big but I'm so glad I kept it...it just means I get to be creative with how I layer it to fit better! I'm wearing: hat-minnetonka, turtleneck-secondhand from my mom (anthropologie), vest-free people (marshall's), skirt-miss patina (mercari), tights-new xmas gift from my husband! clogs-Sven Clogs (poshmark)

This was my first outfit/package pic ever featured on Poshmark's instagram AND Miss Patina's feed! The stars were just aligned when I put these fun and very photogenic colors together! It also feels great to have some solid sales from Christmas Eve and Christmas day to ship out! I'm wearing: hat-target (poshmark), jacket-sebby (poshmark), sweater-poshmark, collar-miss patina, patns-blank nyc, sunglasses-oui fresh, yellow clogs-sven clogs Sven Clogs also informed me that yellow (same shade as this) is the color of 2021 with gray! I'm going to have to do some Pantone-inspired posts! TBA! Do you love yellow or yellow and gray together? xx  

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you! My husband worked his magic capturing these pics of me, Axel, and my new Christmas Clogs from Sven! The harness detail is so dreamy! I'm obsessed. They are my mom's new faves that I have in my collection! I'm wearing: collar blouse-vintage (thrifted), sweater-target (poshmark), jeans-express (poshmark), harness clogs-c/o Sven Clogs  

new boots w. the fur!

Image
Axel is not quite a posing pup yet, but I did my best! I was too excited to show off my new gifted boots with the fur! My husband prefers them rolled down like this but I think I like them better rolled up. Either way, it's great to have such a cozy and versatile pair of new boots in my collection! I'm just wild about the rich brown tones!  I'm wearing: jacket-poshmark, blouse-miss patina, white jeans-fox's designer, beret-eBay, sunglasses-amazon, brown clog boots-c/o Sven Clogs Look at my giant puppy! He's getting HUGE! xx  

new forest green clogs: christmas colors pt. 2.

Image
Sven gave me 3 pairs of new clogs for Christmas! These forest green ones are SO dreamy that I knew I had to really pop the green with another christmasy color scheme! They are a great match for this dress!  I'm wearing: beret-poshmark, jacket-anthropologie (poshmark), dress-miss patina, belt-vintage, green clogs-c/o Sven Clogs, sunglasses-oui fresh

take us to Disneyland, please.

Image
As I am sure a lot of you missed traveling, my husband and I really missed Disneyland and Knott's Merry Farm this year. It was supposed to be our modern xmas tradition of going to the amusement park(s) every winter instead of spending so much money and energy on presents that we don't really need or want. Memories are more valuable, right? I'm really praying that next year, we can get our trip. We got tix to universal studios that we never got to use due to the pandemic.  I'm wearing: j acket-aeropostale (poshmark), baby yoda hat-amazon, baby yoda tee-eBay, skirt-poshmark, belt-vintage, bag-disney x coach (eBay), socks-xmas gift last year, kiwi clogs-c/o sven clogs

What I wore to do some pre-holiday thrifting at a local charity shop and grab some sandwiches and coffee at a local small business! How are you supporting small-businesses during the holidays?   I'm wearing: beret-miss patina, sweater-thrifted, skirt-poshmark (target), tights-target (old), bag-poshmark, clogs boots-c/o Sven Clogs

all purple, all day!

Image
When in doubt, wear all one color that makes you feel darned good. For me, it's all purple, all the time! This is maybe my fourth or fifth monochrome purple look this year and it just feels right every time! I'm wearing: jacket- bagatelle (amazon), top-miss patina, hat-thrifted, sunglasse-amazon, bunny purse-kate spade (mercari), socks-amazon, purple clogs-c/o sven clogs, skirt-poshmark (endless rose)  Here is my fave just-finished roll of t-rex xmas wrapping paper! Isn't it fun? TJ Maxx has such cute paper every year!
