Accessorizing 101: T-shirt and Jeans

Hello! 

Today I'm bringing something a little different! I wanted to talk about how to transform a t-shirt and jeans into a really beautiful outfit! 

I started out with my light wash skinny jeans from American Eagle and a plan baseball tee from Urban Outfitters. (wait, what - i didn't thrift anything for this outfit! but wait!) 

To make this outfit a little more interesting than your basic t-shirt and jeans I added a fun floral kimono and the necklace from my last post! I've featured this kimono before but I think it can look fantastic with simple skinny jeans as well! It's also perfect for this time of year because it can still be hot where I am and this kimono is so light and airy! 

I think adding a few accessories - like a necklace or a lightweight kimono can add vibrancy to an otherwise dull outfit! For the fall I'd definitely trade out the lightwash denim for a darker wash and perhaps something with some rips! I think this type of outfit can work for any time of year. 

I absolutely adore this skinny jeans because of the detailing on the sides! Isn't it stunning? It's also really subtle and delicate, which I think definitely goes along with this outfit! 

Let me know what you think of the outfit I created in the comments below!

The Military Vest / Entirely Thrifted Outfit

Hello!
If you can't tell from this color palette of this outfit... I am extremely ready for fall. I do love bright colors (like my previous post) But in all honesty - I am so over the 100 degree weather, sweating profusely when I leave the house, and not being able to wear a sweater! So I decided for a more muted color palette. 

I also decided on this outfit on Monday because it was National Thrift Shop day! And this outfit is entirely thrifted! I recently thrifted the vest but it's originally from H&M. Some of the buttons are a little loose but I found it for 2 dollars and I just couldn't pass it up! I love how military inspired it is! ButI also feel a bit like I'm in a marching band when I wear it too. I can definitely see getting a ton of use out of this in the fall. (You'll also see from many of my posts I am addicted to vests!!) 

I thrifted the gray skirt on the same thrifting trip and it is originally from Express. I originally picked it up to wear under a sheer purple Maxi skirt I have but I decided I liked it on its own too much! My brown/salmon colored shirt is originally from H&M. 

My shoes are probably my favorites part of this outfit. They are indeed little boy shoes but when I saw them they were in perfect condition and I couldn't pass them up! When I brought them home from the thrift store I showed them to my dad. He promptly went to his room and grabbed the same pair of shoes out of his closet!! What a hilarious and wonderful find. I've had them for about a year or two now and they've still held up great! My floral socks are hand-me-downs from my Mom and I wear them all the time.

Thanks for reading! Let me know what you think in the comments! 

Did you celebrate National Thrift Shop day?
