What I Wore: Black on Black

what I wore: dress – tj maxx, jacket – bcbg, heels – gianni bini, glasses – shop ultra, watch – bcbg, bangle – kate spade, earrings – forever 21

This outfit was a random idea I had before going to bed the night before. I thought – why don’t I tie a sash around the neck of a button down top or dress? So, I did and for once, it worked!

What I Wore: The Marine Layer

what I wore: dress – vintage via cheap thrills, platforms – go jane, earrings – charm & chain
This lovely little number can be worn many ways thanks to the sash that can be wrapped inside or out. I love a good kaftan!

TTH’s Apartment

Is this or is this not exactly what you thought Taylor Tomasi Hill‘s apartment would look like? I probably wouldn’t have foreseen the plants (but being from Texas she probably misses greenery) but everything else looks about par and of course fabulous.

What I Wore: Pumped Up Kicks

what I wore: dress – vintage from grey dog (also seen here), shoes – go jane
So…I’ve been really into my new orange shoes from gojane. I love the idea of a girly dress and sneakers. There’s nothing more comfortable.

What I Wore: Breaking the Rules

what I wore: dress – vintage paper white from cheap thrills, slip – target, platforms – forever 21
I’ve never adhered to the no white after labor day rules. No, maybe I wouldn’t wear a strapless white shift with sandals in the snow, but that’s really about practicality and not about following set guidelines. On the first day of March, the forecast was for 74 degrees. I am a self-proclaimed sun worshiping summer lover and I took the opportunity to wear a white lattice dress. I knew the minute my eyes locked on this dress that it would have to be mine. You know that moment when you have the internal argument with yourself about how much money you can possibly let yourself spend? Luckily it was $18. And I have to tell you this is the very best silhouette for ANY WOMAN. Ladylike & feminine, it accentuates the waist, shows the legs and covers the arms. PERFECTION.

What I Wore: The Rhinestone Bowtie

what I wore: dress – forever 21, blazer – liz claiborne, platforms – jessica simpson, earrings – forever 21, rhinestone bowtie – vintage family heirloom, ring – kate spade
So I basically recreated my vday fuschia monochrome but changed it up with the shoes and the bows. I love this outfit.

What I Wore: 80’s Revival

what I wore: dress – vintage maggy london via cheap thrills, belt – old from Maude, heels – gianni bini

I love the shoulder detail on this funky/fun little dress I found at Cheap Thrills recently. Without the belt, the dress morphs into 80s-extreme!

What I Wore: Western

what I wore: button down – vintage lee via cheap thrills, jeans – asos, heels – forever 21
Friday, I wore my “Dwight Yoakam” pants and a delightful western button down I found at Cheap Thrills. They are Dwight Yoakam pants because they are extremely tight and caused my legs to fall asleep from numbness. Also appearing – my high pony.

What I Wore: A Few Basics

what I wore: knit/heels – forever 21, skirt – ann taylor, jewelry – vintage
Basic animal print knit, basic black skirt and basic black heels. I love all three of these items and I felt cool in this outfit. Leopard & Black is such an easy combo which also feels current. It always inspires me to go heavy on the black eyeliner. The exposed zipper on the skirt (which I cleverly tried to showcase) makes it a little more than just a basic. Looking back, the skirt/heel combo had a bit of a weird Christina-Aguilera-Legs thing going on. That could just be because of the strange circumstances in which I find myself taking photos (read – need a photographer).

What I Wore: Golden Girl

what I wore: dress – vintage from cheap thrills, belt – vintage from grey dog, earrings – kate spade, heels – vince camuto
This dress. Ahhh. It’s one of my favorite finds EVER. The brocade gold fabric is so luxurious. There is a little peter pan collar in the back that my go-go-gadget arms could not capture in photo. I’ve told you how into maxi dresses I’ve been and I wasn’t lying. I’ve worn several over the past few weeks. I also feel like vintage clothes are another art form.
