I paired the hat with a thrifted velvet dress which I knotted at the side to give the ruched assymetrical look, which photographed well, dontcha think?

Velvet, Fur and Net OH MY!
Hey peoples! This thrifted look is comprised of a velvet banded hat, velvet dress, fur stole and suede boots. The hat was about $3 and I purchased it because it reminded me of the lampshade hat Audrey Hepburn wore in Breakfast at Tiffany's. I incorporated the hat into the look because I'd just had a chemical peel and my face needed protection from the sun, so I channeled a Samantha moment from a Sex and the City episode. Who remembers the episode I'm talking about?

REPURPOSE YOUR GARMENTS || CAPELET
Hey Peoples!
I often find ways to repurpose my garments, be it a dress worn backwards, a dress as a skirt etc. This time while getting dressed I thought to use a wrap skirt as a capelet!
I hadn't seen this shared before, so I thought to pass it on! Just sling the wrap skirt around your shoulders and fasten! and voila, now you have a capelet! The skirt I used is a vintage Paul Harris Design wool skirt (perfect for the cooler seasons), it has a single button closure and a button fasten inside the waist. I imagine a wrap skirt with a zipper could work as well! Try it out! You could also embellish the closure with a clip on earring or brooch!

31
So today I thought, “I want to look sophisticated and 31 today" Reason being, I play in clothes so much, I often neglect my soohisticated side.
I paired these vintage jeans with a thrifted top that was BNWT from Marshalls. Blazer was thrifted also along with the fox lapel from a vintage coat and faux fur keychain clipped to my Barr&Barr bag from a consignment shop.
Shoes from Nordstrom Rack by Enzo Angiolini and shades by Ray-ban from Sunglass Hut.
