Nothing can bring an outfit to life faster than a bold retro print. Take this cute little jacket and skirt outfit from Miffyhoi Rosca at H&M. She sells it with a white v-neck crop top and it’s adorable. It has prim cuffs, collar and a bit of prim swing to the jacket as well. The [...]
So Gidge tells me my dress look it’s made of Swiss Cheese. I thought it looked like it had been made with a paper hole-puncher.

Mixing and matching your separates and accessories is a great way to breathe new life into items you’ve previously worn, or worn differently.
Example - this Piper shirt from Digit Darkes I previously blogged in my hottie rocker outfit.
There’s the scent of roses in the air - yellow, lemony roses carried by the breeze from the church down the street. It made me want to put on something floral and summery and I thought of this dress right away. From Bianca Foulon, the draping dress in grape is a floral confection with a [...]
