The Perfect Pendleton

Hey hey! :D This one's going to be short (yay? hehe) since I'm wearing only a couple new things. Before I get to the new stuff, I want to point out that I'm wearing a fantastic vintage piece that I picked up from a fellow blogger last year. Her name is Chrissy and she runs Fiery Finish Vintage on Etsy. She's super cool! Click here to check out her blog! You can't see all the details in this photo, but the sweater is long sleeved and braided. It's super warm and perfect. ^_^ Click here for better photos!

The wax skinny jeans are from Tobi. I picked them up on sale and wore them a couple times prior to this. They're not as reflective as when I got them since they've been washed. >_< Bah. Hehe.
One odd thing about the pants is that the back of the care tag says: "God Loves You." It was...weird. Haha. I was like...I just...wanna know how to wash these pants.... o_O
Way to hoodwink me, bro. Haha.

Last, but not least, is the star of the show: my vintage blue/green plaid Pendleton. ^_^ I had kind of a silent freak out moment when I found these babies. I remember sifting through the racks and the color scheme immediately caught my eye. I pulled the garment out by the hanger and held it up and then just sat there staring at it. Haha. I've always wanted a plaid blazer in these colors, so I rushed to try it on.

The length is perfect and the shoulder pads aren't obnoxious, though the sleeves are a bit on the short side.
It wasn't super cheap either. I think the blazer was $25, but I had a gift card. ^_^ Honestly, I would have paid more. Regardless of the short sleeves, I'm totally in love with this blazer and so happy to finally possess it! <3 So there you have it! I hope you like this very simple Sunday brunch outfit. :P

Hahah, would totally buy this too! I've been searching for a good plaid blazer for months, I kind of gave up already :D
Bahahah, oh man, the "God loves you" label...I like the fact that they threw those cold, how to wash facts, and all of a sudden a creepy out of nowhere "God loves you" lol :D

Man, I know. I stood in front of the washing machine just staring at it for a while before I threw it in. Haha. It was a weird moment. o_O

I love this look. It's nice and easy but the gloves give it that edge that you always carry so well!

Me too! It's totally pretentious in a wholly 80s kind of way. Haha. I feel like all I needed to finish things off was one of those huge cell phones with the antenna. :D

My partner said that if he didn't know better, he would have thought I was a dude. Haha. This made me very happy, of course. :DDD I didn't realize how androgynous this was until he said that.

I'm really loving the whole menswear look these days.

Those pants are awesome too, but totally bizarre about the label. I've never encountered that one before!

you have such luck with finding awesome items! Love this blazer. I thrifted a couple of nude blazers, but would love something more fun.

Great outfit lovely :)

Thanks, babe! I have kind of a nude blazer. It's thrifted and vintage. The color is like a butter cream. It's fantastic. I love looking at it, but every time I try to incorporate it into an outfit, I just feel like it looks strange on me. I don't know if it's because of the color and I'm just not used to seeing myself in a light colored blazer or if I just suck at styling this blazer. Haha. Anyway, if you find a plaid blazer of pretty much any color, I'd say go for it! I think those types of blazers are pretty much fool proof style wise. :D

Thanks for linking to my shop and blog, Anna! I love how you styled the sweater with a blazer this time. It's such a chunky knit that it really needs a strong jacket like that if you want to layer on top of it. Well done!

I can honestly say that I have no idea how I would react if the tag in my jeans said "God love you". So strange...
