Inner Child

 Jacket and scarf- Thrifted, Dress- Rave, Necklace- Forever21, Booties- Jeffrey Campbell

Took a break from studying to go snap some pictures, and as soon as I walked outside, I wished I'd never left! (I tried to hide my cold angry face but I guess it didn't work.) Tyra Banks once stressed the importance of "creating your own wind" when taking pictures---completely unecessary today.

I can always count on finding the cutest little faux fur or leopard print trimmed jackets in the girl's section of the thrift store (like the one I'm wearing today), which otherwise tend to get snatched up right away from the adult section.  The best part is, the sleeves already fit at 3/4 length so there's no need to roll them up (plus they're even cheaper!). Vintage girl's stretch velvet dresses are also some of my favorite finds.

It's always an interesting moment when the cashier asks if the items are for a little sister..."Uh actually, they're for me!"  The cashier will then give me an uncomfortable look as if I belong with "Fur Man," this guy who frequents local thrift stores decked out in women's fur coats, hats, and furry slippers.  

He does have the best accessories!
