If you follow me on Instagram, you might already know that this blazer was one of my recent thrift/vintage finds I got while in Reno over Thanksgiving! I’m a little surprised that it fits because I ended up buying it without trying it on. But I guess it was just meant to be because it fit like a glove! No tailoring necessary! The thrifting is Reno is WAY better than I could have imagined. I ended up finding a few bags, a belt, this suit, a few button up tops and a really awesome pair of pants. Plus, we ended up going on Black Friday and one of the thrift stores was doing a half off sale! The trip ignited my love for vintage and thrifting again. I took a long break from it because of school and just feeling like I had no extra time for it. But it’s something I want to make more time for again and possibly start up my vintage shop again!

Anyways, I wanted to share this post in hopes of inspiring you to pair your vintage and thrift finds with modern pieces. There’s nothing I love more than pairing the two together! Would you have guessed I got this suit at a thrift shop if I hadn’t told you?! That’s what I love about pairing those pieces with modern pieces I have already in my closet.

I’m looking forward to sharing more of my finds! Let me know if you have had any luck thrifting lately! What’s been your best recent find?

How to Wear White Jeans in Winter

White jeans: a spring and summer staple. But so many end up putting them away once September hits (the labor day rule is OUTDATED right?!) I am here to show you a way that you can wear those white jeans you love in the winter! White denim probably isn’t the best on a rainy or winter day, but check your weather and plan them on a nice sunny fall or winter day. Pairing white denim with boots and a blazer or jacket is such an easy way to wear white this time of year.

Also, did you notice anything extra special about these photos?! They’re all shot on film! My friend Chantel has an online film shop where she sells film cameras. Since she has to test them all out first, she let me be her guinea pig and take some shots with the cameras. Film is always just so special to me. I love how it’s unforgiving, it’s real. I am hoping to incorporate more film shots on here as well as my instagram. It really is near and dear to my heart and I always love the outcome.

Alright, I am keeping this short because I am headed to Reno tomorrow and I have SO much on my to do list still. The days seemed to fly by this week. But I am looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with my family and eat ALL THE FOOD!!

What I’m wearing: Blazer: Vintage (shop blazers here), Tee: Vince, Necklace: Wolf Circus, Purse: Vintage Celine via The RealReal (similar here), Jeans: Reformation , Boots: Trademark
