and the sky is grey


Everything: Vintage
Pants: Topshop (I know pink pants AGAIN!)

FINALLY it's fall. And I couldn't be more excited. And I don't mean indian summer with the leaves a-changin' but it's still like 80 degrees out. I mean REAL AUTUMNAL WEATHER. Crisp breezes, afternoon showers, cozy up in a cafe and read a book fall. I don't know if its the fact that I have Steely Dan on repeat, or because Argo was life changing, but my love for late 70s dressing has been rekindled! I have always loved it. I used to have a pair of brown corduroy bell bottoms I wore through all of junior high, but I know that I often dance in the world of the 80s. There's just something so romantic about all the brown tones of '79 that I love. Not quite the shake-your-groove-thang 70s, not quite the girls-just-wanna-have-fun 80s. Somewhere, in the middle.

Maybe I love this style because it reflects me, not quite this, not sure of that, a mesh of everything. Plus the music of the time was so romanic, and Woody Allen films where at their PEAK. Sure I know a lot of girlies love 70s boho, but I'll take 70s working woman..any day.

  6. I just love your style. The 70's workwear inspiration you use is fantastic. I love your plaid blazer paired with the pink trousers and floral top. The prints in this just work so perfectly together.

  7. Highlight for me is that flower brooch! Delicate and tough, represents your style very well I think!
