Retro cutie

Well it's not any of my thrifted items yet, but how adorable is the final item I got from the ModCloth sale - this retro blouse?  I am in LOVE.  Shame on me, I didn't think to get a picture of the back - there are these delightful buttons.  Someone remind me to do that next time!  


Also, taking pictures inside = big difference right now.  I may be able to get more good outdoor pictures on weekends and later this Fall when it gets a little lighter out again after Daylight Savings time, but for now, the lighting is just too weird with the sun coming up!  I was much happier with how these turned out!


This bag is not new, but is new to the blog.  I don't believe I've shared it here before.  I felt it kind of matched the vibe I had going, while I don't always match my bag to my outfit anymore, I wanted to do it today.


I am excited, it's my Friday!  I could get used to these uber short weeks!  We're heading up to a cabin with our music group tomorrow for the weekend.  We do it once a year.  It's just a time of fellowship and fun instead of work.  I'm looking forward to it even if it's a short getaway.


I'm sure my attire for the entire weekend will consist of a sweatshirt and jeans - but never fear, I'm ahead on outfit photos this week, so there will still be an outfit post tomorrow!  I'm such a nerd!  Ok, well Happy Friday to me and Happy Thursday to the rest of you!

Blouse - ModCloth

  9. I like the blouse! I love long weekends, but short weeks get tough because I have to fit five days or work into four days.

  13. The blouse is super cute, I love that you paired it with ankle pants and flats for a totally retro look. Congrats on the short work week. I'm back to school full force, but I'm still trying to make time in my day to enjoy life and blogging and have fun.

  17. If there are buttons down the back then it is DEFINITELY vintage-inspired. (: And the collar is right ton trend. It looks adorable.

  20. Love this top on you with the cropped pants (a fave trend for me right now). Also, your shoe back back drop is cute. I struggle to find anyplace in my small house suitable for pics :P
