wrapping up March with some outfits.

anthropologie top, thrifted frame jeans, thrifted necklace & gifted leopard sven clogs for a shopping day and lunch with my mom walking around with my dog and husband and picking up takeout with a thrifted skirt, poshmark top, and eBay boots and the vintage hair barrette I've been wearing a ton lately! Casual style in my thrifted army skirt, sister's hand-me-down top, poshmark sven clogs and thrifted coach bag (I love the light blue!) dinner with friends in my uniqlo mario tee, thrifted denim skirt, eBay troentorps (outlet) and thrifted coach bag (def a go-to as you can tell) Family dinner in my thrifted top and skirt, poshmark jacket, thrifted coach bag and gifted shiny purple sven clogs I learned from these pics that I really need to clean my mirror AND that I have a pretty reliable outfit formula for most days. Which look do you like best? xx  

recent favorites.

I am SUPER proud of this cute brunch outfit. I will definitely be wearing this more. I'm wearing: vintage top, thrifted skirt, belt and vest, eBay justin ropers (80s), coach bag and charm (poshmark), stella mccartney thrifted sunglasses So I have a confession. This outfit below, it was recently scored from a consignment store and I like it about a million times better than the sloppy outfit I wore to trade in my clothes (not shown. honestly not worth documenting!) This knit top is by Veronica Beard (my first!) and the jeans are anthropologie and fit me like an absolute dream. Even better, the buttons on the bottom can be done up to have a ruched ankle OR wide leg ankle! How cool is that? Here is a recent taking-the-dog-to-the-park for the day outfit. A Spring-centric vibe with my vintage overall dress, thrifted top, honeymoon-hat and these gifted Calou Stockholm Clogs from Sweden! I also recently got my DREAM DRESS I wanted for what, like two years? From Desigual. I found it on a f

blue dress, gray skies.

I'm wearing: thrifted tee and dress, eBay bag (botkier), diy sven clogs (color by me), thrifted hat  I didn't really love these photos, it's been gloomy and rainy but I did like this outfit a lot...so here it is! xx

styling a jacket for sale.

I was just looking through my poshmark closet and thinking about things for sale and I thought it might be a good idea to retry on and do some cute updated product photos of this eighties vintage leather jacket that is still AVAILABLE! Sz small but could fit a lot of sizes since it's a very relaxed fit! I'm wearing: amazon headband, thrifted top and sunglasses, anthropologie pants, gifted sven clog boots We are in that weird time of year on the West Coast, when it is almost Spring, but there is still a chill in the air and the nights are COLD! And here is the outfit restyled for a chilly night out with my own sweater rather than the jacket for sale! ...& here are some outfits that I took quick pics of rather than full stylized shoots! thrifted top and skirt, diy sven clogs color by me! Here is my St. Patty's day '23 outfit HOW COOL is this vintage real leather vest I got for $16 on eBay? It was priced SO low because the belt was missing, but it is such an easy fix

some pieces of this week.

Here's a DIY I've been working on and off with for a while. I've been trying in vain to patch up the tear and succeeded in the leather holding, but it's been a big challenge to match the paint to the color of the jacket, so I decided to just try writing out some of my favorite lyrics to one of my favorite songs to tie together the 'rock' in Hard Rock for the sleeve. I think it looks ok. It doesn't look amazing, but it' has a bit of new life, so that's good, right? Here's a look I thought would look even better with my recently purchased 'prairie misfit' corset.  One of my go-to winter outfit formulas is definitely this: long sleeve top or sweater + midi skirt + clogs. It's a great way to give my spring skirts a bit of a winter update/style stretch Sales are still a bit of a trickle. I've been selling stuff for less than I'd like when they are items that have sat for months or years. I really want to overhaul everything some da

saying goodbye.

This week hsa been extremely heavy and sad. Here's the last outfit I wore for a style challenge before we had to say goodbye to our cat, Kairi. I'm still gutted and will take a short break from posting outfits for at least a few days. It's been really emotional. I wore : anthropologie dress (old), vintage 80s blouse, necklace as tie, amazon socks, thrifted hat, 90s basket bag from psohmark, calou stockholm boots (outlet) My outfit was loosely inspired by Little House on the Prairie and while googling the fashion I stumbled across this 'Observer' article that made me laugh a bit and also re-examine the show from my childhood. I never really watched it as an adult, just bits and pieces as my husband or mother-in-law enjoy rewatching it and yes, it is truly grotesque in many story lines! I wore : secondhand uo sweater, secondhand target dress, old minnetonka hat, old amazon tights, gifted sven shearling clogs I wore my cat tights in honor of Kairi and mostly black, I
