Vintage: Remix! Outfit of the Day!

Today was a very cool and brisk day. I purchased a Vintage sweater dress a few weeks back because it was very reminiscent of Patrick Kelly (A Mississippi Native AND designer) due to the buttons that were used. It looked beautiful and different, and I had to have it. I felt today was the perfect day to wear said dress.

The dress was made by Peter Ashley, and it was also made in the USA (And all of my followers know how I love to have ANYTHING made in the USA). It was listed as a medium and a size 12. It fits very well with a lot of stretch, and it was in GREAT condition.

I decided to add a little fever of the wild to my recent purchase by adding what else? Leopard print! I used the same belt I used in a previous post, which I purchased from Wal-mart. Be sure to reduce, reuse and REMIX your outfits with accessories that you already have.

My tights? H&M of course! I absolutely LOVE these tights. They are EXTREMELY easy to rip. So I have to be very careful with them. I don't think they sell these anymore.

The awesome thing about this dress? It has POCKETS! I LOVE pockets on dresses! It made the outfit complete! I appreciate pockets because I can place my lip balm in them.





My eyewear? They are by the wonderful Jackson Harlem, of course. These Jack ICONS are Blackout with clear lenses. I love wearing my ICONS everywhere!

I purchased my shoes from Aldo back in 2008. I adored these shoes when I first purchased them, and 4 years later, I still love them so!



I can honestly say that I was excited about wearing this dress. Any vintage garbs in great condition MUST be styled appropriately and worn with the upmost care. I love all of my vintage apparel, and I hope to eventually pass them on to someone who will love them just as much as I have.
