Suit and Tie

Vintage finds. Today's outfit is about those special finds you find at your local thrift stores. 


The first item I picked up at my local Value Village was this beautiful patterned blazer. I love the gold trimming and the way it fits. The colours are amazing and I can always spice up an outfit adding this piece. 


I also picked up this old style Suit and Tie T-shirt from Talize for $3! I love this simple T-shirt and I can wear this with everything. 


The shirt is baggy on me so I just tied it to the side with a headband. Adding a pair of high waisted shorts and my fur collar completed this look. 


I hope you enjoy this vintage look! 

Enjoy <3

Sun Shine

Another beautiful day so I had to take advantage of it by doing a lovely post! Today's look is a very conservative look with a hint of something tasteful. I wanted to wear my yellow blazer and put this outfit together that I love. 


I got this yellow blazer at a vintage store for $10. I think that is an amazing deal. I paired it with a simple sheer black collared shirt from Suzy Shier and my floral high waisted pants from H&M. My brown wedges are from Nine West from last years spring collection. 


I paired it with a simple silver necklace and a hat to complete this look. 



Having a fitted blazer in your wardrobe is great because you can pair it with anything to style up your outfit. 
I hope you enjoyed this look!

Vintage Love

School is coming to an end and I am very excited for what comes after. I have my final next week and had to do some shopping for my final "look". My friend and I stopped by Value Village and actually found some pretty interesting things. Our little shopping spree turned into a 80's fest of two little rich girls trying on a bunch of funny clothes with Cindi Lauper playing in the background. Any way, I found these two shirts that I surprisingly liked. 



I found this "jumper" in the blazer section and found that it fit really nice. It is baggy on me but I can wear it with a lot of things and it is great for fall. 


The detail on this shirt is beautiful. I love the gold trim it has on the end and the pattern is some of the patterns I see in style right now. There was shoulder pads on the inside but I just cut them off to have a more simple look and I didn't want massive shoulders. 




I also found this yellow blazer that has built in shoulder pads that I did not take out. I tried it on and it fits like a glove and actually looks nice with the shoulder pads. I love the bright yellow and it looks amazing on then on the hanger (trust me, you would be surprised). 




The detail on this blazer is manly focused on the buttons. These unique silver buttons actually what caught me to this blazer and I like the look of them.

So, you never know what you will find thrift shopping and the deals are always amazing. These two shirts were under $20CAD and your fashion will be unique. Don't be embarrassed about where you shop or what the brand is, yes those things are nice but you never know what you could find and being your self is more beautiful then "who" you are wearing!  

I hope you enjoyed these finds!
