wearing thrifted Ellen Tracy skirt, old sweater from Anthropologie, vintage necklace, Zara flats

I looked under my bed for the first time in months last week and in addition to dust bunnies the size of Pomeranians, found a long-forgotten duffel filled with clothes that I had meant to give away but never did. This sweater was in it--I bought it when long + lean tops were the hotness and never wore it because duh, it's cropped. Sorta glad I accidentally hung onto it all this time though.

  4. A bit of retro recycling is quite the current thing.. Looks perfectly contemporary too. Why not?
