(pardon the scowl…the sun was in my eyes)
I’m in love with this top, I found it recently at the thrift store. And do you know when you have found a truly vintage and mostly old-lady find? When your grandmother comes up to you and says: “I have a shirt just like that!”, like mine did when she saw me in this top. THAT’S when you know your dressing oh-so-classy with a little bit of old-lady mixed in there. GENIUS!
The belt is another one of my favorites that I have thrifted (if you haven’t noticed by now I’ve got quite the obsession with belts, I love them!) The rings that I have on are super special to me. My mother was quite the fashionista, and I’ve hoarded all her jewelry for years! It wasn’t until a couple of years ago that I really started to see what beautiful jewelry she had and how well it went with my style. The ring with the oval green/blue stone in the middle of it is my favorite of hers and the gold one with the little ball has some sort of Egyptian hyroglophics on it. I’ll be sure to show you more of her amazing jewelry!
This outfit ties in perfectly with a song that I have grown to love oh so much this summer Black and Gold. Originally, it is sung by Sam Sparro but I fell in love with the version by Katy Perry that I found on the cd I bought at Starbucks (ssssshhhhhhhh! don’t tell anyone!) called Sweetheart ‘09.
I do not promote Starbucks,(even though they have great drinks and good music on sale) I’m rootin’ for the small coffee shops trying to make it in a big Starbucks ruled world! But I’ll jump off my soap box for now to go back to the fact that Katy Perry is amazing as a singer and does a GREAT remix of this song. (Have I mentioned that her style is the epitome of CUTE??!)
Have a listen!
Have a blessed Labor Day weekend!!!
