XOXO
I just finished all that Netflix has to offer for Gossip Girl thus far. I have to say, I got way more attached to the show than I had anticipated. And now I cannot wait until Season 6 is out.
It's funny because I've never been a tv girl. Like at all. Patrick likes it because he basically has free reign over the tv. But between Gossip Girl and Sons of Anarchy, I've become a tv drama series fanatic.
Of course, there was much more than New York City (still my lifelong dream and obsession to go there one day) and the plot line that gives the show that kick of flair.
Of course a big part of the success of the show is, indeed, the fashion. And while I could never live up the LV and DG lifestyle those girls do, I decided today it would be fun to put a little Serena in my step.
How does one get inspired by a (fictional) NYC "It Girl" from the Upper East Side with not a designer label in my arsenal?
Dissection and interpretation. And for that I went with sequins (is it just me or does Serena wear more sequins than anyone on the planet?), boots with a boho vibe and color.
Because the other option, a bodycon dress that accentuates mile long legs and perfect bossom, was not really in the cards for the office. Or my body. Or my budget. So this will do.
Red Skinny Polka Dot Jeans-Old Navy; Sequined and Striped Tank-Old Navy; Suede and Ribbed Cardigan-Avalin, thrifted; Studded Boots-Forever 21; Earrings-gifted

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
