I tell myself the same thing every time I walk into a thrift store:
"I'm just going in to look. Browsing only. Maybe take a few phone pics for kicks. But that's it. Because I certainly do not need to buy
any more crap. "
And guess what I buy
every
single
time
?
More crap.
Alas. It seems that I am powerless against Waldo-inspired attire [what would Waldo wear?].
Paired with florals here, might I add. An interesting and impromptu combination that I'm admittedly willing to try again - and with intention this time.
The same goes for this wardrobe staple ...

That striped jacket reminds me somehow of that lovely Burberry gold and black striped raffia coat - find it here: http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/190348
ReplyDeleteIt´s an entirely different model but retains that "I´m covered in a big striped coat" quality I get from your new purchase :)

Thanks for the link! No question there - they certainly do convey similar sentiments. I think this one's a little more retro than the Burberry, and also about $2,990 less expensive.
DeleteBut nothing in this world is as cool as the collar on that coat. A crocheted collar!!!? With that gold? Insane.
Thanks again - I really appreciate your comment :)

Love the coat! Definitely a Waldo-inspired piece, if I owned that I'd probably hide behind the couch or under the table and not come out until someone found me. Or is that just weird..?

You look GORGEOUS! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks again for your lovely comment! I love this jacket, I'm obsessed with black and white stripes at the moment. Love the skirt you're wearing as well. I'm exactly the same- I always intend just to browse but never have any willpower to stop myself from buying stuff.
ReplyDeleteNow following on blog lovin because the follow bar has disappeared!
