All My Favorites in One Outfit + Quay Sunnies Giveaway

April 3, 2018

There are two things I just can’t stop talking about lately on the blog: non-skinny jeans and loafers. It’s like I can’t go a week around CTF without wearing one of them, and I’m about to add one more item to the list.

BERETS.

I’ve become so obsessed with my camel beret that I almost don’t feel like any outfit is complete without it! I would say it’s a problem, but I’m not mad about it so it’s really just a fact of life. If you don’t like berets I feel a little bad for you, and hopefully my next thousand or so posts wearing one will change your mind 😉

There really are so many ways to wear them that they don’t get old. You can wear them on the back of your head, tilted to the side, with jeans or dresses, heels or flats. I’ve been Pinteresting beret inspo lately and love how people with different styles wear them their own way.

Top – similar // Jeans // Shoes – similar // Beret // Purse – similar // Sunglasses – similar // Necklace

And those non-skinny jeans and loafers. I have whole posts dedicated to them! I did a non-skinny pants roundup with a lot of options ranging from boyfriend jeans to white crops to tencel pants. If I can interest you in a non-skinny pants revolution, head over and check it out.

I actually ordered two of the options from the roundup and I tried them on in my Instagram stories. I saved the try-on session in my highlights so you can still see it if you’d like. 

And the loafer love was strong in my post dedicated to all the different kinds of loafers I own and how truly versatile they are. It’s going to have to get pretty warm out before I start trading them for sandals!


Now I did say in the title of this post that there’s a giveaway!

So what’s the deal? Well, I recently ordered these Quay After Hours Sunglasses after seeing the lovely and stylish Leah Behr of Eat Pray Wear Love rock them (see here and here for inspo). And while I still love the style, they just don’t work for my face. And instead of returning them I thought I would gift them to one lucky follower!

How do you enter? Simply complete as many entries as you want in the Rafflecopter below, and I’ll pick a winner at random next week! The entries are to follow me on Pinterest, Instagram, like my Facebook page, and sign up for my newsletter. Each follow/like is another entry that increases your chances of winning the sunglasses.

I took this photo 10 months ago to share some of m I took this photo 10 months ago to share some of my favorite thrift finds in a blog post, and I'm currently wearing this vintage sequin sweater today ❇️ I bought it for 99¢ during @arcthrift 's annual sweater sale, and it needed some help. I used dish soap to get a few white spots out of the fabric, and mended a small tear at the seam 🪡 I don't normally give that much care to my thrift finds, but this silk/angora/rabbit hair blend was so soft and the sequins are in perfect shape, so I gave it a shot! Very glad that I did ☺️ #secondhandstyle #countdowntofriday

Feeling like a million bucks in this perfect condi Feeling like a million bucks in this perfect condition vintage suede and wool coat I got at the Goodwill bins 😝 It's THE winter vacation coat if you ask me ❄️ Since you pay by the pound at the bins, this stunner cost about $5 😱 As a matter of fact, most of my outfit is secondhand: Brooks Brothers turtleneck, J. Crew jeans, and Coach purse via the thrift, and Kenneth Cole suede boots from Mercari 🏷️ Now heading home from a wonderful ski weekend in Beaver Creek 🎿 #secondhandstyle #countdowntofriday

9 years ago we were on our honeymoon in Iceland 🇮🇸 I just had to download this image off of Facebook (hence the low quality!) to post because this coat is thrifted 😂 I still have this coat and need to wear it more! It's a simple, long houndstooth coat. I found it at a big flea market in Florence when I was studying abroad for 25 euro. Once a thrifter, always a thrifter 😝 #secondhandstyle #countdowntofriday
