Look Book: Summery & Vintage Inspired Jeans

Jul 28, 2011

Outfit Details:
Hat - H&M
Top - modcloth
Jeans - American Eagle
Shoes - H&M
Lip colour - (Chanel: Gabrielle #19), Lip Liner - (Sephora Real Red #20)

I was so excited to get out and take these pictures -yippee! I finally had the opportunity to test out my newly purchased wireless remote, and it worked fabulously. I had such a fun time tromping around my neighbourhood, taking pics and smiling at bystanders. I even did a little victory dance when I was finished. I know, I'm such a dork.

I recently purchased this modcloth top, and I've been wearing it non-stop. I've been styling it with my floral skirts, denim shorts & sandals, and with my flared jeans -of course.  I'm such a sucker for anything vintage inspired; it's a look that I've been loving lately. Oh, and if you're wondering who that kitty is, well that's my cat pumpkin... poor guy hasn't really had much exposure on the blog. He's such a love bug!

Any fun plans for the weekend, friends? I'm hoping to visit a few historic towns with hubby this weekend. Hope the weather holds up, it's been dismal here in Vancouver. Fingers crossed for lots of sunshine. xx veronika

    Just found your blog and I am in love! You are so adorable and I love that you take your own photos. I just started my own blog and am taking all of my photos as well.

    I am planning to take me and my fiance's engagement photos this weekend - but it's been raining (and MUGGY) here in Florida :( I too am crossing my fingers for good weekend weather!

    Looking forward to following your blog. XO Megan

    You look adorable Veronika! I love that fedora hat + top, very cute combination.
    The wireless remote looks so fun ahha, it would be much more convenient to do outfits posts with that. I feel bad bothering people all the time!

    I fall in love with any outfit that includes your straw fedora- it's the perfect accessory and suits you to a tee! Although Pumpkin is a close second as far as perfect accessories go; what a cutie! I must say, I'm really intrigued by the wireless remote you got for your camera... Maybe there is hope that I could one day take my own blog photos? Probably not likely, but you've done a beautiful job with these shots.

    By the way, your braids are so great! It's so hard to pull them off without looking all valley girl but the looseness of these are so fresh and new. I bet you are going to start a trend!
