Something Old, Something New

Gaucho Jumpsuit

In case you guys were wondering...yes I do believe in love at first sight.  My best friend actually played a hand in introducing me and my beloved - gaucho jumpsuit.  And it was all L-O-V-E on sight, but not because I loved the print or the colors or the style or the price.  The love that I felt originally for this jumpsuit was simply because of it's uniqueness.  This beautiful 70s inspired print jumpsuit was like none other that I owned, or had ever seen for that matter.

My friend and I had been scouring around Topshop for sometime when she spotted this cutie on the CLEARANCE rake....hello.  And without hesitation she brought it over for me to try-on.  Luckily everything worked out perfectly with the fit, so now it's all mine.

I am in love with this piece, and I am challenging myself to somehow winterize this jumpsuit.  Maybe a turtleneck, and some Chelsea boots will fair well with this look. I feel that the jumpsuit should be worn all year round because of it's awesomeness.  Wish me luck ;)

Earl Grey - Double Shot

Hey all!! I hope you all have been well.  I know the plan was to be more consistent with blogging, but honestly guys life starts happening and it leaves little to no time for blogging.  Nevertheless, I am happy to share this lovely outfit with you all.

I found this skirt at Gap Factory, while out shopping for the boy some grown up clothes.  It was marked down 70% off ($13.00), and I snatched up quickly.  Here you will see that I styled the outfit with two shoe options, and honestly they both work perfectly.  I tied both looks in with my necklace, which has all 3 colors (teal, blush pink, and greyish blue) included.

Floral Shorts

In this post, I would like to share another thrift find from my Chicago trip.  My BBF took me to her favorite thrift store in the city, Unique Thrift, and it was our lucky day.  Unique has HALF OFF everything on Mondays.  So my Chicago readers definitely take advantage of that.

I was able to score these amazing vintage shorts for about $4.00 (they were marked down half of $7.99).  The bright, bold floral print caught my eyes immediately as I was perusing the aisle of clothing.
