RECENT ACQUISITIONS

Here are some of my new favorite additions that I have yet to wear on the blog. I’m very happy with the fact that not all of it is NEW. Vintage, second-hand, thrifted, whatever you want to call it, it’s a great place to find inspiration when you feel slightly tapped out. To top it off, I finally received my Alex Wang Brenda bag, which is even more cool and sexy in person!

This was a fantastic find for 20 bucks. It is SO soft.

I orignally didn’t want to buy this because I thought it was too small, but to my pleasant surprise, it is VERY spacious and has tons of compartments. The old adage holds true for the Brenda bag: big things come in small packages.

Love, love, love this leopard, fringe rodeo jacket. How fun! It’s a little over the top, but how could I say no to the $9.99 price tag??

This neck piece is so cool. Again, another steal at $4.99. The shop lady told me that I could get it re-plated, but I like how it’s dinged up.

Coincidentally this was also $4.99. I really love bucket bags right now. I haven’t decided what I’m going to string through the holes. I want to stud the bottom though!

    Nice finds dude. Srsly. I am basically crying over that brenda bag… I just keep wanting it more and more, the lust isn’t going away…but being in college makes it pretty hard to spend that much money on a bag…

    I’ve been rocking the bucket bag since last summer and I gotta say, it is a pretty rad look…

    your bucket bag kick mine’s ass though.

    Hey leatherette!
    I totally feel you. I just got out of university only about a couple years ago. I know what it was like!
    I got my bag on sale actually. SHOPBOP has these tiered sales from time to time *if you spend 800 dollars, you get 150 off*, which is what I did.
    It’s a great bag though….even better in person!
    Much love,
    V
