Hahaha, I laughed when you said the coat was expensive at $11. :) That is actually quite a bit for a thift store buy, though. :) I love the ruffle shirt!

Hope you have a Happy New Year!

hehehe yeah, I guess I'm kind of cheap at the thrift stores, anything above $6 it's expensive.=D

The blouse is divine, and it doesn't look 80s at all! It works really well with the leather skirt.

Happy New Year!

I LOVE this shirt especially with the belt. I would love to have a shirt like this.

Haha, I hate it when things are overpriced in thrift stores!
(but anywhere else you'd be talking about your awesome score, haha)

I definitely think the look works - I love the leather pencil skirt!

Hope you have a wonderful new year!

i LOVE the pairing of the ultra-feminine with the leather skirt. I laughed too, when you said the coat was a splurge. One time I found a coat for around 20 dollars at a thrift store. [and did NOT buy it :-] It seems like lately your style is more classy and simple, loving it!

Thank you ladie!
Megan I am trying to try new things so you are right my style has been changing a bit, it's baby steps but I want to find things that are a bit more my age. =)

This look literally made me gasp out loud because it is so beautifully gorgeous. Not too 80s at all. I love the way you belted the top over your skirt. Flawless!

I love this outfit, especially the blouse.

Your hair is gorgeous in these photos! I kind of wish I had thinner hair, so I don't fluff up when I curl mine! That is a beautiful blouse, too.
