Details: Aerie bralette (retail), vintage belt (thrifted), BCBG skirt (thrifted), mom’s necklace
Thoughts: I wore this for my birthday — and outfit made of some of my favourite things: mom’s necklace, a highwaisted skirt (with crop top!), the colour turquoise. I could have chosen a black top, but I thought the green would be a more memorable choice for pairing with the blue.
Details: homemade jacket (thrifted), Vince top (thrifted), Pilcro jeans (thrifted), mom’s necklace, Fluevog shoes (thrifted)
Thoughts: I love this little chore jacket, especially because it was someone’s handmade project. It makes a fairly simple outfit feel special. It’s a bit of a heavier fabric, so better for cooler days; that means that I will have to wait to wear it again, but I am already making plans. I think the warm colours will work really well with some of my fall clothes — especially a few wool skirts I have in mind.
Details: Farm Rio top (Poshmark), Papillon dress (thrifted), BR belt (thrifted), Barbara Barbieri shoes (thrifted)
Thoughts: I decided to jazz up up this simple white, gauzy dress with some bold colour. The crochet is like built-in AC, which makes this top a great layering option for hot days.
Details: Aerie bralette (retail), Sweetgrass vest (thrifted), H&M pants (thrifted), Cotton Ginny belt (thrifted), Barbara Barbieri shoes (thrifted), Rebecca Minkoff bag (thrifted)
Thoughts: I LOVED this outfit. I’ve been really leaning into the whole wear-a-bralette-as-a-top thing on my days off. It’s so nice on hot days; add a vest and some high-waisted bottoms and, hey presto! Cool (literally) and funky outfit.
Details: Anna Sui top (thrifted), Lucca Couture skirt (Poshmark), Suttles and Seawinds vest (thrifted), Rafael Alfandary necklace (secondhand)
Thoughts: I already wrote about this skirt, but here it is again: I am obsessed. The tiered silhouette is perfect, and the lace makes it extra cottagecore-y, which suits my current aesthetic perfectly. This outfit was inspired by some of my favourite runway looks from the SS2011 Ralph Lauren collection: head-to-toe cream with prairie/Southwestern accents.
