My Daily Outfit


Last night I finished making both of these awesome shoes so I constructed my outfit around that. I also wasn't sure of the weather so I decided to wear my corduroy pants that work in any temperature. But then I put them on and realized they were flared and I hate flared pants, so I quickly sewed them into skinnies. So fashion disaster averted ;-). I also had just finished putting these awesome purple rhinestone buttons onto my tuxedo jacket so I decided why not, and wore that as well.
Jacket: Got it back when I was Drum Major for the Harvard Band
Tank Top: Target
Pants: Macy's maybe? DIY'd by me
Shoes: Thrifted. DIY'd by me!

Vintage - After

So I ended up taking a little bit more off than I wanted to, but with the addition of the white tights I think it looks amazing!

Dress: Vintage 60s
Tights: TJMaxx
Shoes: Ralph Lauren (selling them here)

Vintage - Before

Yesterday my aunt took me out for lunch for my birthday, and then bought me this amazing dress from my favorite vintage store. I was ecstatic, I love the dress. The only problem is that it's too long:

I think that I'm going to cut it off around knee length, and then a bonus is that I'll have enough of the material left over to make something really cool. Finished product coming soon...
