Hello Kittens
Once again, I'm here playing catch up on my Outfit of the Days. I was almost all caught up too!
Outfit of the Day (Saturday, three weeks ago):
A couple of weekends ago, I wore this Trashy Diva Sweetie dress in Ruffled Feathers. Though I don't really celebrate, I picked this dress to wear because it was Lunar New Years and this is the year of the rooster :D. Tim and I went out to breakfast and then ran a couple errands for the day. I paired this with a Sweetie sweater by Heart of Haute which I was lucky and snagged during a sale on sale a few months ago. :) I also paired this with Miss L Fire Maraschino pumps which I also got on sale at Zulily back during the Summer. For a finishing touch I wore a pair of red stud earrings which I got a while ago from a local retro shop, Vintage Alley, and to keep warm, wore my trusty red toggle coat from Target from years ago.

Outfit of the Day (Saturday, two weeks ago):
The next weekend I went out with a friend wine tasting. I decided to wear my Trashy Diva Streetcar dress in Forget Me Not Floral. I paired this is my red Sweetie cardigan from Heart of Haute (again), brown sweater tights from Target from a few years ago, and a pair of red Miz Mooz t-strap wedges which I got a few years ago from Zappos. For a finishing touch I wore this with a red beret from ebay which I got a few months ago, red floral stud earrings, and an Erstwilder brooch which I got as a present from a friend a few months ago.

Outfit of the Day (Sunday, two weeks ago):
Tim and I went for a walk around the lake. I've been hiking a lot lately and have been trying to work on a style where I still feel like myself but which is a bit more casual than my usual weekend looks. Thank goodness for vintage reproduction companies like Collectif! While almost everything I am wearing here (at least the main pieces) are Collectif, I actually owe this outfit to CiCi at www.cici-marie.com/ She has reviewed both this plaid top and these pants on her blog in the past which has alerted me to their merits. :) I am a big fan of this blog and love the outfits she comes up with! You should check it out if it's not already on your radar. Anyhow, the top is Collectif's mainline cheyenne tai tartan gab jacket which I grabbed on sale a few weeks ago while the pants are Collectif's Rebel Kate Denim Jeans which I was super lucky and found on ebay for a great price several months ago. I wore this with a striped shirt which I got from Target about a year ago and a pair of red Vans. To finish off this look, I wore this with a red belt I took off of one of my Hell Bunny dresses.

And....Here are a few fun pictures of our walk around the lake. You can say we got a fair bit of rain this year!
Til we see each other again friends! <3
That red sweetie sweater matches so well with both TD dresses, but I especially love it with the FMNF streetcar.
ReplyDeleteHats look so good on you, and this beret is no exception! I never try them...maybe someday I will!
<3 Thank you Bristol! I love the sweetie sweaters. I'm happy I was able to add this to my collection recently. You should totally try some hats. I'll keep my eye out for it on your blog :)
DeleteI really especially love the first one
ReplyDeleteThank you Kate! :) I knew I had to wear my roosters for the Lunar New Year :)
DeleteOh my I love those Miss L Fire shoes, they're awesome! I also love the Ruffle feathers print on the Trashy Diva dresses! But yeah those shoes really suit that dress perfectly! xo
ReplyDeleteThank you Camilla! I did get some compliments on them when I wore them. :)
DeleteThe print on the ruffled feathers dress is pretty amazing. It looks very vintage. I really like the casual outfit you based on Cici's look too, it looks great on you! I get a lot of inspiration from other people too, it's good to see how people pair things together, you might end up trying something great! x
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree. I love getting inspiration from other people especially within the blog community. I love seeing what people come up with. And yes, I totally fell for this ruffled feathers print. I thought they did a really great job with this print <3
DeleteI love both dresses and also your casual outfit. I don't think I have seen you in jeans before but they look great on you. I have resisted wearing jeans as they don't suit me....but you never know I may be persuaded to buy a pair one day!
ReplyDeleteThank you Rebecca! I do believe this is the first time ever I wore jeans on the blog! I love having these high waisted jeans for work but it's also really great to have them on the weekend for a casual yet retro inspired day. While my go to on the weekends is still dress, it is nice to have some options! <3
DeleteWe're TD print twins in both of these prints, except I have the skirt versions! I hear you on the trying to keep your style but casual things down a bit (like for hiking). Wearing athletic gear in public can feel jarring at time!! XO
ReplyDeleteYay print twins!!!!! :D And yes! I feel so unlike myself in athletic gear and typical hiking clothes. So nice to find some options to keep it casual and still feel like myself :)
