{CARDIGAN: KERSH, BELT: MODCLOTH, SKIRT: H&M, TIGHTS: AMERICAN EAGLE, CLUTCH: H&M, SHOES: JOE FRESH}
It was a day of mini revelations. I discovered that my favourite skirt (pictured above) has pockets. How did I not know this? I live for skirts with pockets and I have worn this skirt many times. I also learned that my husband is a hummer. HOW did I not know this? I do not like humming, especially while trying to read a book (shameless hint for husband). And I also learned that I can break up the black in this outfit, by adding a brown belt and a taupe-ish coloured scarf. Again, I did not know this. Voila. I am a new person you guys!
And while we are on the topic of life-changing events, I am also on a new mission. More cardio? Nope. More vintage shopping? Yes! I have become so inspired by all of you, dear fashion bloggers, hence my new mission! Oh good, you’re sitting down because I am about to get deep. I am throwing my heart into this, my arms are flailing. I want to rescue unloved clothes, re-style them and give them a place to call home. I also want to save money. OK, so I am not completely selfless. PS. Hubs is humming again. PPS. I just ate the last potato skin. xx veronika

If he's going to distract you with humming, you have the right to the last potato skin. :)
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is FABULOUS!!! I love how you broke it up with the brown belt, super great idea. You look awesome!
What a lovely outfit! I totally need more cute skirts - especially ones with pockets.
ReplyDeleteI want to do more vintage shopping, too, but It very difficult for me since I can't drive and my mom won't drive me often. :( Good luck on your shopping, though! I can't wait to see what you get!

Awesome outfit! I've picked up a terrible habit of whistling. But not like a particular song, just whistling. It even bothers me.

I love this outfit! and I like how you always add tips to the photos ^^ x
ReplyDeleteI am OBSESSED with pockets! If I find a dress or skirt with pockets, it is automatically one of my favorite pieces.
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit V..it is so fun and flirty and i adore the brown belt on the black cardi!
ReplyDeleteStunning as usual Veronika! If I see any clothing orphans in my travels I'll be sure to send them your way. Everybody (including inanimate objects) need love...at least that's what the stuffed animals of my childhood told me :) Happy Monday! OXO
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely skirt! And I would love to do more vintage shopping as well.
ReplyDeleteI love the skirt! and this belt.. #WANT!! xx
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is gorgeous! I love pockets in anything ha! x
ReplyDeleteOh I simply LOVE your style. The skirt, the belt, the scarf, your hair, it's all flawless! Great tips that you point out too by the way.

I adore that skirt; the perfect shot of color with all the lovely neutrals!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous skirt! It's my first visit to your blog and I'm excited to snoop around a little.
ReplyDeletenice to "meet" you!
Leaving the House in THIS?!?!
Ooooh I love your skirt!
ReplyDeleteI love Vintage shopping, I'm actually going today!
I love how you styled this skirt! So pretty - and it has pockets? Sounds like the best thing ever.
ReplyDeleteMy husband loves to talk to me while I'm reading. Um, hello? I'm doing something else?
haha, so many revelations, i'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around them all. Skirts with pockets are the BEST, I can't believe they went unnoticed for a bit in this skirt! You look fabulous.
ReplyDeleteyay!!!! so glad you're going to be thrifting more! oh boy, you're gonna get hooked. like i'm not kidding. i'm almost a sickness with me....maybe i shouldn't reveal that? oh well. it's so fun and yes, you can get some killer deals (i got a ysl blouse for $5!!!). i do love this skirt. so glad i found your blog!!
ReplyDeleteoooo... this is so pretty. I like how you broke up the black with the belt. And i have done that way too many times. I wear a skirt or dress I've had for awhile and then i randomly put my hands in my pockets and suddenly I'm yelling OMG POCKETS! in public.
ReplyDeleteI love the two patterns of the skirt and tights together! Your photos are always so pretty and well done!
ReplyDeletewow! love the glam girl skirt - and totally rocking the bangs!
ReplyDeleteLove how you styled this - especially the scarf. You reminded me of all the skirts and dresses in my closet with pockets. Need to pull those out again! :)

I can't decide if I like your skirt or your adorable bangs more.. let's just say you look fabulous! xo Joanna
ReplyDeleteYou are freakin' adorable! this skirt is amazing!!!
ReplyDelete-Katie
HA! Great revelations! I just found your blog through Rule Breaking Mondays. Love!
ReplyDeleteAw I love this outfit, and you look lovely with all of the layering! (I'm horrible with layering) I like your tip about adding nudes to the black to complement it and give it some depth -very pretty! Oh and btw, I just realized who you remind me of - Tori Amos circa 2001. I didn't realize until I started listening to her over the weekend, and it just dawned on me - please don't ask me how lol.
ReplyDeleteYou look great. That skirt is too cute. I just found out the other day that my hubby is an amazing yoyo-er. Who knew?!
ReplyDeletecute outfit...I love this!
