The Weight Of The World

Blazer: Thrift $4, Jeans: Value Village: $8, Boots: Spring $15, Shirt: Bootlegger $5

I dont know what it is about this blazer but everytime i take outfit photos with it i always really like them!! i have worn it twice before (here, here) and much to my dismay this outfit is pretty much the exact same as the second one but oh well. I have had the blazer for three years and there was a time when i almost threw it away because i didnt like how long it was, crazy right now that is what i like the best about it!! I went through a faze last year were i didnt wear jeans or pants ever for about eight months (pretty much froze the entire winter) because i am not fond of how they fit and make my legs look. But now i have kindof accepted that is just the way they are and am totally loving jeans, i would also really like to find a nice pair of of skinny green cargo pants. I got these boots the other day in the mail and can you believe the price, with tax they came to fifteen dollars, i was so excited!!! Online shoe stores have been having great sales lately, i just cant resist them. This is a very special post because i am featuring my sister on here for the very first time (pictures below)!! She has fab style and i always want to steal something she is wearing. I love to go thrift shopping with her, you get us into Value Village together and we are there for a good solid two to three hours. She is wearing her new Americal Apparel pants which are awesome, she did say i could borrow them (wahoo) i think they would look pretty damn sweet with my leather jacket :). I hope everyone had a lovely afternoon!

I like both of these outfits and I am glad you kept the first blazer! It has a rocker chic look to it and a fedora would look awesome! I also love the burgandy pants in the second post, I am actually in the market for a pair, will see if I can find something similar! Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting, so glad to discover your blog!

Wow! I love both of your looks! I think you look GREAT in jeans, and yay thank you for showing us your sister, because she is gorgeous! I totally love those pants she is wearing.

P.S. I like the lighting in these pictures, too! Taken in the evening before the sun sets methinks?

You remind me so much of Lara Chedraoui, singer of Intergalactic lovers, an amazing Belgian band! And that's a compliment, she's stunning ;)
