Mesh ballet flats curated on LTK

livelovesarablog

Low effort Friday. Style tip: When I bought this button up from the Gap I went for the tall sizing because I wanted more length with it. It’s a nice option to have when you prefer a longer length in items.

I saw this vintage slip and knew I wanted it as a skirt. Ive had these moto boots for 10 years now and they are perfectly worn in. And this sweater was on super sale at Banana Republic.

A little bit of green to complete the look. The sweater adds a touch of preppy to the Nine Inch Nails t-shirt.

It’s cold today so I have my new vintage wool blazer and vintage Dries Van Noten boots a try. It gives fall vibes and I love it.
Blazer, bag, and boots are vintage.
I’ve noticed a pivot recently where my wardrobe is becoming more vintage focused with a sprinkling of new instead of the other way around and I am liking this direction.

I write a bit about the French Girl Summer aesthetic and why many of us gravitate to a similar look as the hot weather season begins.

It’s amazing how a vintage cashmere sweater can look and feel better than one I bought new. This sweater is 30+ years old and looks like I just bought it at the store.
Vintage sweater, vintage bag.

I really love this vintage blazer. The 90s produced some truly great pieces that are timeless, and you wouldn’t know this piece was around 30 years old.
Blazer, bag, and boots are secondhand or vintage.

Bed jacket two is from the 1920s so I guess technically it’s moved from vintage to antique.
Everything but their-shirt is vintage, secondhand, or antique.

Style tip: buy something because you love it not because it’s trendy. I saw this vintage 90s Moschino blazer on eBay and knew that I wanted it the moment I saw it.
Bag and blazer are secondhand. I included this blazer in another size in my most recent capsule about secondhand shopping.

#LTKStyleTip #LTKOver40 #LTKSeasonal

For those that DM’d me asking how I wear vintage bed jackets, this is one way. I like the bit of feminine touches to juxtapose a more rough around the edges outfit. Honestly, I’ve spent the last two years trying to find a vest/waistcoat that feels like me and I finally admitted defeat and accepted it isn’t a trend for me even though I really like the look. This is more me so I’ll embrace it. It’s okay to not jump on all trends and dress for yourself instead.
Bed jacket, t-shirt, and handbag are all vintage.

Sunday errands. Big dress, big bags. This dress is gratifyingly long and oversized without the side slits that most shirt dresses have. It’s a dress over jeans day again

A little tomboyish today with a vintage Ralph Lauren polo, some Aritzia trousers that I sized up in to give a more slouchy look (I want to buy these trousers in grey too), and then a touch of feminine with the flats.
It’s also humid out so I may regret this.
Shirt and bag are vintage.

Today’s outfit photo brought to you by the Zara change room where I tried on a bunch of things I saw online and they all looked terrible. Then to round out my disheartening experience I zipped my skin up in some pants.
Jeans are vintage, shirt is super old, tote I bring everywhere with me. It carries a lot.

Simple all black is good when you’re stressed and don’t want to think about what to wear 😂 I just talked to my Canada Revenue Agency tax lady and if I don’t laugh I will cry because this tax year is a little bit of a kick in the face.

A 12 piece modern preppy capsule. It is 4am here and I am still awake, I figured I would post this before going to bed. The red and white polo sweater is great. It is actually what inspired the whole capsule when I spotted it while puttering around the mall waiting to pick up my youngest from pottery class. It is cotton and currently on sale for 40% off. Then you can stack the codes ADDON for and extra 20% off, and FAMILY for an additional 10% off. I’ll link it in my stories.
