Drawn From Memory

Oh, hey! :D Here's an outfit I threw together for a day of shopping (not fun shopping, mind you, just boring errands haha). I felt like wearing something eclectic and fun. Plus, the weather was really nice for a change. It was dry and sunny; and although there was a chill wind, it was still better than the overcast rainy weather we were having last week. That being said, I slightly regretted wearing the sheer skirt since the cold wind went straight through it haha. The cat ear hat came in handy, too. ^_^

This vintage floral blazer is one of my favorite thrift finds from last year. Every time I wear it, I feel so lucky to have been in the right place at the right time to snag it.
I've worn it so many different ways, as it seems to go with just about everything I have, which is surprising since the print is really colorful and crazy. Click here to see the futuristic style I created with the blazer in early December of last year.
This is definitely one of my more eclectic styles. It's pretty out there! Haha. I did a subtle mix of florals with the blazer and sheer maxi skirt. I also used both garments to combine textures (which you can see better in the previous closeup photo). I added the retro flip glasses to give the outfit more of an edge. For some reason, I find that I look particularly devilish whenever I smile while wearing them. Haha.

Here are some closer views of my cobalt blue bag and my sheer maxi skirt. I felt like the bag added a wonderful splash of color and I think the spikes on it are pretty rad. :D
I thought about wearing sheer tights underneath the skirt, but I decided to let some skin show through to accentuate its floral print.

This cheeky Threadless tee is one of my favorites. I'm pretty sure the text on the shirt was on an actual flyer before it became an internet meme. You can really feel the person's anger! It's kind of sad, but it's also pretty funny, too. Haha. At any rate, I hope that bike thief got what was coming to him/her!

Who knows? Maybe I scared some people with this outfit, maybe not. It's certainly different, but it has me written all over it, so it can't be all that bad, right? Riiiiiiight? Haha ^_^ Have an awesome day! <3

I've actually seen that bike internet meme! Lol, didn't know they made it into a t-shirt; that's awesome. I love that skirt - it can be styled so many different ways!

You always come up with such amazing ways to style t-shirts (love this tee, by the way)! I think the tee and blazer would look great together regardless, but the skirt (which is gorgeous) takes it to the next level and adds a lovely bit of drama (and makes me think of Stevie Nicks which is never a bad thing!). <3

Hi, Anna! And here I am again with my Monday visit! Cause now I see you on fb! I saw the skirt and said I love it, and the bag, but didn't really see the T-shirt - I love it! I'm amazed by this part of text - and I agree with it "don't even want the bike back". Such was the frustration... a lovely T-shirt, really! I simply loved loved loved the jacket! I love florals and that patchwork style is amazing! And the boots are also cool - you look fabulous! Did you scare people? I don't think so! I think I'd look at you and ask "where did you buy your items?" Have a great day!

I think that you perfectly styled the pieces together: the different prints, the skirt. Incredible look xx
