Fashion Challenge: Wannabe French

Ooh la la! I have been loving all the stripes popping up in magazines, stores, and my own closet as spring approaches! Using thrift store finds, I put together a few outfits in deference to the French! I may not be able to travel across the pond at the moment, but I am still a wannabe!

My first outfit consists of closet basics scored at Goodwill! The fitted striped top balanced well with my kinda-baggy vintage Levi’s. The scarf and bracelet were gifted to me, but you can check out Lindee’s bracelet tutorial here to make your own!

These amazing vintage earrings were a lucky find at Goodwill! I love their length and sculptural quality. So much outfit-making potential!

I found this striped skirt at Goodwill on the same day that I found the earrings! When a beret magically appeared alongside them, I kind of freaked out a little! Although the skirt isn’t old, it has a great 1950’s vibe complete with pockets! I will wear it lots during the summer, but added a jean jacket and scarf for the chilly weather.

I enlisted cute hubby as photographer and fellow baguette shopper! We later went in search of cheese…

My favorite thrifted Ralph Lauren sweater made this next outfit cosey. I teamed it up with the vintage Levi’s that were very 90’s. I couldn’t pass up adding a newsboy, bandana, and boots!

I am well on my way to getting packed for my imaged French vacation! (Or at least more baguette shopping!)  😉 Vive la France!
