Fur jacket, Men's Frye boots, Beaded Cardi: Vintage. Winter leggings: American Apparel. Dress: Vintage from Foley & Corinna. Bag: Forever 21. Shades: Ray Ban. Hat: H&M. Gloves: Street vendor. Scarf: (not seen) Vintage/Thrift. Nail Polish: Pixel Pretty by Sally Hansen.
Amazing the stuff you find when you go shopping in your own wardrobe. I fell in love with this 'Carrie inspired' 50s dress with full under skirt the moment I tried it on in the vintage section at Foley and Corinna and found it while sorting out my stuff at home.
To keep it year round, I wore it over thermals and a couple of thin layers, including a black polo neck and the old Fryes. The beaded cardi peaking out under the jacket is a recent vintage find (per my twitter messages last week).
ps. This is my fave drink at Starbucks. What's yours? I don't like their coffee so I'm pretty limited I think.




I love all the layers and textures in this outfit. I cant believe that bag is from F21...gorgeous! I always get a skinny caramel latte....every flippin day...now I cant function without it. Just think what I could buy with that latte money....hmmmm.....

I love that vintage dress! but I especially love how you always manage to pull off the most amazing grungy vintage look! you're just gorgeous, I think that's it...
ReplyDeleteI am so picky when it comes to coffee. I have the no foam, lite whip caramel macchiato @ Starbucks almost every morning. It's more a treat than your average cup of joe. Love your look everyday!

This is my drink! I kind of run it into one word though.. "soychailatte", which always gets a, "huh?" in response! Love this outfit! I'm currently under a bunch of layers too, but better days will come!
ReplyDeleteThe CHAI TEA LATTE is my fave drink at Starbucks!

Love the Frye boots. You can pull them off with anything!
ReplyDeleteMy fav drink at Starbucks must be toffee nut latte. It's one outta three christmas specials here in Germany. Don't know if you got them in the States. If not, you're really missing something :)

ReplyDeleteI like chai latte with 2 pumps of vanilla
love that last photo - sort of a nonchalant chic, no? love all the layers
ReplyDeleteloves it!
ReplyDeletei recently 'gave up' starbucks on the regular to save the cash for something i love more than coffee...clothes! haha so i go maybe once a week now, but when i do go, i always order the same thing: no foam, skinny vanilla latte. the stupid starbucks down the street from me pretty much never fails to burn the espresso.
love your blog!

Forget the drinks! Look at your purse! *drools*
ReplyDeleteIs that bag with DIY studding as well? I can't believe it's from forever21! It's so gucci/balenciaga.
You look gorgeous. Great hat! ;))
