SHRINE.
I found this dress while thrifting in Michigan. I was over the moon when I tried it on and it fit so perfectly, as most vintage dresses are either way too big or way too long on me. I love the tapestry detail on the chest. The dress is from Lost and Found vintage, the coat is from Zara, the...

COLD WAR.
Here’s a lovely cozy winter look. Chicwish gave me this lush sweater dress with an adorable black peter pan collar and tie. It’s the perfect combination, a sweater that’s long enough to be a dress! I am a sucker for dresses. It pairs nicely with the Topshop ankle boots.
Now the snow is melted in Chicago, it...

UNREQUITED LOVE.
When I walked into AllSaints on Michigan ave, I saw this tailcoat hanging on the wall and of course; it was instant love. I knew I had to have it. Luckily AllSaints was having a big sale so I got it for a great price. It isn’t often that I splurge. It’s so well designed...

SO MUCH BEAUTY.
SPRING HEADBANDS.
I grabbed these two adorable headbands from ASOS for the spring. I know spring is quite a ways away, but the turban one is on sale and amazing and of course I fell in love with the nature one to the left. I love headbands and accessories and I want to incorporate more of them into my outfits.
I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. Chicago got tons of snow. I recently started a new...

OH SO COCO.

MICHIGAN THRIFT FINDS.
Here are my thrift finds from Michigan. As you can see, I have much luck with finding great coats! This winter I have accumulated about 20 coats I’d have to say. Coats were my 2011 obsession. The first coat (suede and fur) cost $9, the Edwardian dress was $20, the black faux fur coat was $5, and the red London guard like coat was $30. I did pretty well, I think!

TAKE A WALK ON THE WILD SIDE.
In this look: Philip Lim 3.1 blazer (thrifted from Crossroads), Leopard dress from Chicwish, Bag from Romwe, Acne shoes from Oak NYC.
To me, this look is reminiscent of more youthful times. Like in middle school, when everyone started to wear leopard print and spiked cuffs/belts because it was “punk” and “cool”. Sometimes it’s...

ONE DOWN.
I am sitting in a computer lab at my college waiting for my next class and I figured it was a good time to post and share my excitement because I’ve just finished my first (and most challenging) final exam! Wooh! It was on German Wiemar History, and I couldn’t be more happy to be done with that class. No more Hitler, no more intensely long German names and dates that I can’t...
