Modern + Vintage

image

As I’ve stated in the past, I absolutely love vintage finds.  I think this shirt was about $5 at an NYC thrift store purchased several years ago. I just loved the colors and the linked chains.  It was purchased a few sizes up from my normal size so I decided to just tie it to give me that 2000s vibe.  Oh how we loved to tie our shirts in the front and the famous back tie and tuck in high school!  The jeans I think may be from American Eagle.  I honestly cannot recall but they paired nicely with this over the top shirt.  To mix in a bit of a modern touch with this look, I wore the over the knee Steve Madden boots I’m overly obsessed with.  The hat pictured is from H&M, also purchased at least 2 years ago and still finds itself to accent many of my ensembles.  When you combine a little modern with vintage you get this lovely fall look!  More pics below.

Summer in October

image

When it peaks at 83 degrees in October in NYC, you get a little excited like myself.  Perfect timing for shorts right?  I purchased this Pablo tee awhile back at Dash randomly and was in search of a shoe to rock with it.  Steve Madden came through in the clutch once again!  I can let you know now I will be wearing these over the knee boots pretty often.  I was on the hunt for just the right boot and luckily these fit perfectly.  So perfect that I bought  2 pairs; one in black and the other in taupe.  You can’t go wrong with a $99 boot that’s comfy and is well made.  It actually stays over the knee and doesn’t bunch!  I even tried the boots on with jeans and they still fit comfortably.

Seeing that I am slightly obsessed with dad hats, I decided to add a denim one with this ensemble.  I thought it added a nice touch with the royal blue and black contrast.  NYC you never cease to amaze me.  I will appreciate any warm weather I can get, no matter the season.  More looks from the citygal below.
