It's a Pink (and Gold) World...

Okay, so first let me start by saying I love this outfit (even though I haven't ever been a huge fan of pink). This outfit consisted of things I've already worn on this blog, BUT I remixed them up. For this outfit, I wore a light pink and mauve printed shirt (*) over a navy blue pink, white, and green triangular-print spaghetti-strapped dress (*). I added a tan waist belt to it and for my other accessories, I wore big hot pink hoops (*), a pearl-strand bracelet (*), several black, gold, and pink bangles/bracelets (*), tannish-brown sandals (*), and a khaki-colored cross-shouldered purse/clutch (*). Hope you guys like my recycled/ remixed look. Sound off in the comments and let me know your thoughts.

Okay, so if you follow Old Vintage, by now, you know I loooooovvvveee leopard print with a passion. I have many leopard items in my wardrobe-from accessories, like shoes and scarves, to clothes. This particular outfit features one of those items. For this outfit, I wore a leopard print cardigan over a black and white polka-dot tank (y'all know how I love to mix my prints) over hot pink skinny jeans (*) with my gray cloth Oxfords (*). For my accessories, I wore big pearl earrings (*), black, gold, and pink bangles/bracelets (*), and a khaki-colored cross-shouldered purse/clutch (*). I really loved this outfit because it was comfy and it was fun. It was one of those outfits that really allowed me to express my love for all things fashion. Hope you like it, sound off in the comments and let me know your thoughts.

It's a Floral Thing....You'll Catch On

Hello, hello, hello!...Welp,it's time to update the blog and add some posts that I've been meaning to add. Enjoy!!
I've noticed that one of the biggest spring/summer trends is floral prints and so I decided to try my take on it with a birthday present of mine from last year. So for this particular outfit, I wore a short-sleeve black dress that has a blue, green, and pink floral print over a light blue tank with my gray cloth Oxfords (*). For my accessories, I wore my beaded and keyed hoops (*), several big bangles and bracelets (*), a pearl-strand bracelet (*), a silver buckle ring (*), three silver jewel-encrusted stackable rings (*), and a silver and turquoise ring (*). Hope you guys like my take on the floral trend. Sound off in the comment section and let me know your thoughts.

P.S. Here's a quick fashion tip (FIP)- when executing a trend such as the floral trend, that one piece should be the standout piece, trying to add another statement piece (such as a busy shirt) would clash with the floral print which is made to stand out all on it's own. Want an example? Wear a pair of floral shorts or skirt with a plain tank/shirt and jazz it up with accessories. or Wear a floral dress with a blue jean vest and lace-up boots with simple jewelry. or even Wear a simple outfit with a pair of floral-printed shoes to make it pop! Happy floral hunting!!!:)

Red, White and....Well, You Know the Rest...


the whole outfit...


Hi you guys, long time no see. How have you been? Things have been a little busy for me which is why I haven't blogged in a while but I decided to today. I just wanted to make a quick little outfit post on what I wore for Fourth of July to show my patriotic spirit. I wore a light denim blue jean vest atop a white tank with navy and white swirl-designed sheer pants with my signature red lip. Red, white, and blue; get it? Anyways, for my accessories, I wore diamond studs, my new granite gray eagle necklace, and my strappy granite gray heels. It was a simple but cute way to show my patriotic spirit. I had so much fun on my day off hanging with my mommy, my best friend, and so much more. How was you guys' Fourth? I hope as wonderful as mine......Until then, I'm out....have a great weekend  :)....

Peachy Keen!

They say the best outfit's are the unplanned one's and in my eyes, yesterday's outfit is one that fit's that saying to a tee. Yesterday, for work, I wore a orange short-sleeve shirt atop a sleeveless peach shirt with it's tail sticking out (*) and hot pink skinny jeans (*). My accessories were big hot pink hoop earrings (*), gold and pink bangles (*), my granni's pearl bracelet (*), two beaded gold bracelets, a tan cross-shouldered purse/clutch (*), and my tan multi-colored wedge heels (*) (for work, I changed out of the heels though, I wore gold flats, not to be pictured). This outfit has lots's of personality and sass because of the color and it's also preppy (shoutout to my mommy, I get my preppyness from her :)). Hope you guy's like. Sound off in the comments and let me know.

Blue-Gray Clouds

Hi, you guys, how you doing? I just wanted to do a quick outfit post on an outfit I wore this past Tuesday. Tuesday was my off day for this week and so I wanted to just throw on something cute and simple, but still me. To achieve the cute but simple look, I went to my sundresses (they're one piece so it's so simple, yet stylish) and pulled out a gray and blue striped sundress that I've worn before (*) but this time, I edged it up a little by adding a Menswear vest (*). Menswear worn by women is very popular right now, so this change in styling still works. Another way I edged it up is by adding gray cloth creepers in. I've been looking for some creepers ever since I saw one of my favorite fashion bloggers, Karen Blanchard of wheredidugetthat.com wear them. I fell in love with the way she styled them and wanted to try it out myself. My other accessories were big silver beaded/keyed hoops (*), a buckle ring (*), three silver stackable rings (*), a silver and turquoise ring, a silver stretch watch (*), and a tan cross-shouldered purse/clutch (*). I wore my hair in a messy bun as not to distract and because it's a simple style. Hope you guys like. Sound off in the comments and let me know your thoughts.

Correction-these shoes are not creepers (unfortunately, :(), they are more like Oxfords...my very first pair at that.

2 for the price of One!

Sooooo, about two weeks ago, I went back to Memphis with some friends to hang out and fellowship with each other. We went to the zoo (I haven't been since I was a kid, I forgot how big it was) and the mall (we got there so late because of traffic so we only had time for these two activities before hitting the road). With that being said, I decided to share with you my outfit for the day. I wore a light denim blue jean vest over a neon green see-through sleeveless shirt and a blue with white stripes, high-waisted bodycon skirt. My accessories were silver beaded/keyed hoops, a buckle ring (*), three stackable rings (*), a silver punctured ring, a silver stretch watch, a blue cross-shouldered purse, and neon green sandals to match the shirt. I love this outfit for many reasons; one of them being that every piece is so versatile; you can dress every piece up or dress it down... which brings me to another outfit I'm posting as well.
In this second outfit, I chose to show how the skirt could be worn more dressy. I wore this particular outfit this past Sunday to church. I wore a sleeveless peach see-through shirt with a khaki-colored tank underneath and the blue skirt. My accessories were big hot pink hoops (*), a pearl-stranded bracelet, gold bangles (*), a tan clutch (*), and a pair of nude pumps (*). I like this outfit because its very girlie and colorful. Hope you like these outfits. Sound off in the comment section and let me know your thoughts.

Bonus-I just want to tell yall a cool fact I found out at the zoo while checking out the apes. I found out that my hands and feet are about the size of a kid ape (I believe, could possibly be teenager, I've forgotten since then). Isn't that crazy?lol...
