I’m a big fan of anything with a vintage feel, and I guess I was inspired by The Great Gatsby when I put this outfit together. Although my hat is really a simple beanie, the large crochet flower just reminds me girls in flapper dresses and my shoes are a nod to gentleman wearing spats. I kept my outfit from feeling too much like a costume by wearing jeans and keeping the colors limited to black and white with accents of silver.
Outfit: Cotton On shirt (old); Converse for Target lace trimmed tank top (old); Aldo hat (old); Madewell legging jeans in artic blue; Restricted “Showcase” wedge brogues (from DSW, but are still available on Modcloth, called Pie Contest Wedges in Cookies & Cream); Lookmatic “Tippi” glasses; Vintage Scooter Necklace c/o Lavishy; Watch c/o Timex
(Stay tuned for a contest to win a gold version of the Vintage Scooter Necklace from Lavishy!)

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial (the Lavishy necklace).
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
Wow, I like this style! And your shoes – omg, I love the brogue, the t-bar and the black and white combo! In fact, my manicure today would make a perfect match, being matte white with one black spot on each nail. 😉
(I’ve finally published my first blog post, but the set up teases a bit, so I can’t add any tabs, which is really frustrating. However, you’re welcome to visit my blog, and in the nearest future I’ll make a post about my black and white nails!)
Thank you my dear!
YAY! I’m SO excited to check out your blog! I’m going to add you to my blogroll 🙂

Thanks Laura! I’ve got a contest happening soon with Lavishy to win that necklace in gold tone, hope you enter! 🙂
