Flared and Mohair(ed)

My jeans are flared.  My jacket is mohair(ed):

And this color combination is a little weird:

Maybe more than a little weird.  But, weird in a good way, I think.



Or, maybe not.  Maybe just weird in a weird way.  Something about it still appeals to me though:

Blouse: Target  Cardigan: LOFT
Jacket: vintage, gifted  Jeans: Gap  Boots: Franco Sarto "Eminent"

Happy Friday, All!

A Different Dark Floral

Usually when I think of "dark floral," I think of a rich floral print on a black or dark back ground.  But, today, I'm wearing a different dark floral:

In the case of this blouse, the floral print itself is actually dark and the background is white.


And, I gotta tell ya, Folks, I rather like it:

And I think it'll be pretty versatile for layering in a variety of winter outfits.


For today though, I just paired it with one of my vintage midi skirts.  I thought it was a good opportunity to show off both the blouse and the skirt:

Blouse: LOFT  Skirt: thrifted vintage
Tights: c/o No Nonsense  Boots: Franco Sarto "Eminent"

Also, it was easy.  Sometimes I like easy.


Happy Wednesday, All!

That Tapestry Dress

Now that it's gotten colder here in Western PA, I find myself wanting to wear this tapestry dress all the time:

I want to wear it layered under things.  And over things.  And, as is the case with today's look, both over and under things:

I just love the bright print on the black background:

And I love how warm it is.  It's a heavy, woven fabric, like, well, a tapestry.  Or, I guess, upholstery.



I don't think I'll be calling it my "upholstery dress" because it just doesn't sound as fancy:

Dress: eShakti (similar)  Top: LOFT  Blazer: thrifted Pendleton (similar) 
Earrings: Macy's  Tights: SPANX  Boots: Franco Sarto "Eminent"

Make no mistake, though, I would gladly take a side chair or some throw pillows in this fabric.


Happy Monday, All!

Double Plaid and a Big Ol' Tassel

It's true.  I'm wearing double plaid and a big ol' tassel:

Quite possibly the biggest of big ol' tassels, but, I can't help it, it makes me happy.



Especially when paired with double plaid:

The skirt is vintage wool, thrifted, of course and I think it pairs perfectly with this plaid shirt:

I finished the look with my trusty riding boots:

Shirt: Banana Republic  Skirt: thrifted vintage
Scarf: La Fiorentina (also in red) Belt: Michael Michael Kors (similar) Boots: Born Crown (similar)

And, of course, the big ol' tassel.  As one does.


Happy Friday, All!

Blue Layers

Today I'm wearing layers of blue:

With a little black thrown in for edge.  Just kidding.  I'm wearing black tights because I like black tights.  There's no edge here.


There might be a little purple though.  Seriously, I think this scarf is actually shades of purple, not blue:

Or, maybe not.  Who knows?  I certainly don't.



But, I also don't care because I really, really love all of these pieces together:

From the possibly-purple scarf right down to the edgy black boots, this is one of my favorite outfits ever:

Sweater: Gap  Skirt: thrifted  Scarf: La Fiorentina via Bluefly
Earrings: Kate Spade NY (similar)  Tights: SPANX   Boots: Franco Sarto "Eminent"

I guess what they (and by "they", I mean "I") say is true; blue layers are the best layers.


Happy Wednesday, All!
