Prohibited

Dress: Dillards, All Jewelry: Vintage Shoes: Vintage Handbag: Vintage (borrowed) Headpiece: Charming Charlies Head Band: Ribbon from Michael's

Here's the look I put together for the 20s party we went to last weekend. I was really proud of myself for not spending any money on it, except for about $6 for the ribbon. I love theme parties, but to be honest, I dread the money I'm bound to spend on an outfit I will most likely not wear again. I was happy I was able to pull everything from my own closet, except for the gorgeous beaded bag, which I borrowed from a friend. All in all, I think this look was a success :)

Ladylike Sunday

blazer: h&m (similar) dress: dillards outlet (similar) earrings: vintage bag: kate spade (similar) shoes: nordstrom off the rack (similar)

this outfit was from super bowl sunday when it got slightly cool enough for me to justify the tights. did you watch the super bowl?? i'm usually just there for the food, but it was amazing to watch how easily the sea hawks won, and also a little sad. go, sea hawks! 

this dress is the only dress i own with pleats. since i'm a little more "well endowed" in the hip area, i tend to shy away from anything that accentuates them. i almost didn't even want to try it on, but the polka dots were calling to me, and i was surprised how much i ended up loving it. do you have any styles you generally stay away from that you've given a second chance and loved?
