Brown Ralph Lauren thrifted at Crossroads, White thrifted Jones New York polka dot scarf, Blue Urban Outfitters jeggings, Tan Forever 21 suede wedges, Tawny thrifted bag.
I wore this, this past weekend and it is definitely my go-to comfy outfit. I fell in LOVE with this thrift-find I got at Crossroads--a Ralph Lauren blouse! The pattern is beautiful, and I decided to challenge myself by mixing patterns with my Jones New York polka dot scarf. Paired this off with my fave and comfy UO jeggings & F21 wedges.
Now onto my President's Day weekend..it was great, but President's Day was even GREATER. I got to spend the whole day with these beautiful fellow fashion blogger ladies, Sherrie of Closet Hound & Anisa of The Laugh Slut. We traveled to Haight St. in SF, which I mentioned on here before, but it is a bigger version of Telegraph in Berkeley or in other words, it has a lot of thrift stores and ma-and-pa shops all around. Really a down-to-earth place to chill and hang out. I loooved each piece I bought! I seriously cannot wait to share with you girls all my finds! Many outfit posts are to come with all of my thrift-find treasures!
To name a few, I found a big cardigan poncho with fringe, a sheer pleated maxi skirt, a couple of American Apparel items, and a white vinyl structured bag. I've been saving up this whole week to splurge today, and I'm so content with all my purchases :) -- I'm a happy girl.
I looved laughing too with Sherrie & Anisa all day, those girlies are so sweet, too many memories with them. ROUND TWO please girls? :)
Aand, didn't get to let you lovelies know, in addition to this blogger-meet-up, I had a few other ones too :). At the blogger panel for Crossroads, got to meet the two beautiful bloggers, Jennie of Going West and Avalonne of Avalonne Hall, they were soo lovely in person and not to mention super sweet, can't wait to hang with you girlies in SF! And also I got to meet up with fellow Berkeley blogger, Deanna of A California Dreamer, looved chilling with her at Memorial Glade on campus while eating lunch & style-watching for BARE Magazine's Cal Street Style.
If you haven't yet, I highly suggest meeting up with fellow fashion bloggers in your area..it is seriously so different meeting them in-person, a good different! :) I can't wait to meet up with more bloggers to come! :hint hint: Chelsea of Zipped, Chandamheer of PancakeSTACKER, and Megan of DonatilaRose! & if you're in the area definitely let me know, I'll be down to chill & show you around the bay area! :)
Also, thank you so much lovelies for your sweetest comments & to the new and past followers, it really means a lot to me for your support. It still amazes me that my blog has now reached over 500 followers..I'm sending a HUUUGE HUG to you over the blogosphere RIGHT now. Thank you again beautifuls, and keep inspiring <3.
Alsoo, if you haven't yet, check out my interview with Michelle of Mod Fox, she's so sweet, thanks so much lovely for the feature!! :)

ReplyDeleteLove the clash of patterns! You did it well. I'm always nervous about wearing different patterns together. It's great to hear that you bought a lot of awesome items! I wish I lived in your area so that I could meet you, but unfortunately I live far away :(
