The Day I Found My Soulmate

So usually when I am at school I suffer the longing for the inviting treasures of a thrift store or antique shop. But something told me Saturday to stop moping around and go see what's out there besides the overpriced Goodwill 15 minutes away. So as I ventured into the historic town that is near my school to take some photos to lighten up my day, while I was scoping out picturesque spots to get my supermodel on, I looked to my left and what was before an abandoned auto garage, was now a new little adorable antique shop. So I decided what the hell, why not? It didn't look like much on the outside but when I walked in it was treasure filled dream. There were figurines, paintings, furniture, collectibles, vintage jewelry, and mink coats! So as I'm browsing the jewelry I see this mannequin with the sickest mink I have ever seen! It was structured as a peacoat with big gold gem buttons. I had found my soulmate on a lonely Saturday. It was my size, in GREAT condition, and I couldn't bring myself to take it off. After being greeted by two adorable ladies who worked at this little antique shop, they soon informed me that the mink was from Germany and that the beige silk on the inside was hand sewn. I melted and quickly asked what I could do to obtain this mink, they let me put it on layaway and today I picked up my new baby. Say hello to Lola!

   So I've decided to not let other things get in the way of my goals and the things that I've plan to accomplish. I found myself giving up on my blog countless times, but it was for all the wrong reasons and I've decided to dedicate this blog 100% to myself. Dressing up for no reason, taking photos from my tripod, and posing like I'm in a magazine is a real hobby for me and it was the initial reason I started my blog in the first place and it will continue to be. This blog is something I can be completely proud of and can obviously showcase all the clothing I've accumulated due to my thrift store addiction. So stay tuned and you will see more outfits and more of me as I show what personal style s about, even if it means breaking every fashion rule there is. If you have suggestions feel free to comment below, I'm definitely always open to new ways to execute.

Black DIY Outfit






 So I decided to ride the minimalism train with this outfit and I am so excited that I did. I had been dreaming about a deep V double breasted blazer dress for some time now, so I decided to turn my obsession into a DIY and it came out perfectly. I thrifted an oversize blazer from GOODWILL and cut off the sleeves and hemmed the shoulders and voila! I had the perfect mini dress/vest top. I threw my Zara fringed skirt underneath for pizazz and there was my perfect all black summer night out ensemble!

Sequined 70's Babe











So I was feeling a little jazzy when I put this ensemble together as you can see. I broke literally all the rules of fashion and I can honestly say I felt amazing wearing this outfit. Sometimes pairing two wild articles of clothing together makes you feel like you have created some masterpiece of art. This sequined dancer tank was found at a Goodwill near my university, as were the striped Tommy Hilfiger bellbottoms I have on. I completed the outfit by throwing my never worned Jefferey Campbell platform wedges on to give a little bit of a 70s feel.
