Outfit Post: Nostalgia

'Forgive me, Blogger, for I have sinned.  It has been 6 MONTHS since my last outfit post...."

Seems as though once the temperatures dipped below 60, I decided to hibernate in my jeans and Ugg boots and giant puffy jacket, all of which I have no photographic evidence.  It got so bad that I actually told my husband I was a little sad to see the cold weather go because it meant I'd actually have to get dressed.  BUT, yesterday I found out I am done with my seasonal part-time work gig for the year and I was over the moon, so I decided to celebrate by putting on (GASP) a skirt!

This outfit screams 90's to me-- daisy print mini, over-the-knee socks, and keep your eyes peeled for a piece of yin-yang jewelry. Yup.  I loved the 90s and I still love the 90s, so I'm happy these nostalgic styles are coming back.  Amanda and I were talking about how the fact that we actually lived in that decade and wore those trends the first time around, makes it a little weird to go all out with it this time around (Like, as 30-somethings, aren't we too old it?).  I mean, do I love a subtle yin-yang hanging from neck?  Sure!  Would I rock overalls and creepers?  Probably not.

Here is my subtle take the 90s trend....



wearing: vintage skirt // vintage gothic medallion necklace (+ "vintage" yin yang necklace!) // top/tights/boots/socks are old and probably not worth even mentioning...haha.

Well, I'm glad I got that first-outfit-post-in-half-a-year-awkwardness taken care of!  We are excited to really delve back into our love for vintage this spring and start sharing more on the blog.  Thanks for reading!

  2. I just like the picture full of elegant details. Working with the designer was amazing, he responded to all my inquiries, he helped me to modify some measurements of my dress too.
