UO skirt, vintage light blazer, vintage belt, vintage necklace/bracelet, gifted watch, aldo shoes
The title is due to fact that this outfit reminds me of the luxe pieces from the SATC2 movie. NEW SHOES! I tweeted about picking between these and some nude wedges a couple weeks ago... it was pretty much a 50/50 vote on them but I sprang for these in the end because the silhouette on them is so subtlely pretty AND it kind of looks like the stiletto I sketched for my business card (see above) about 3.5 months ago. See the resemblance? We were obviously destined to be together ;) PS. Some have asked about where I shop for vintage in Austin...all of my vintage items today come from etsy. I usually don't purchase my vintage items locally due to lack of a car; I usually buy them for low prices on etsy (and sometimes ebay). I am totally an online shopping proponent! However, lately I'm trying to cut down on online shopping since shipping's kinda ridiculous ... but it's so hard to NOT browse etsy/f21/modcloth/lulu's/topshop/asos/gilt!  
This weekend: I....walked in a show in opaque tights in (literally) 100 degree weather (not as glamorous as I'll like BUT I love the designers and they asked me to), decided that making 'smores with Reese's cups was the most glorious idea in the world, danced along to crap music at HEB (grocery store) so much I forgot to get 2 gallons of unsweetened ice tea (weekly grocery musts: red diamond unsweet tea + JIF peanut butter + spinach + nature's own double fiber bread) and had to go back for another trip in the same day, ate baby back ribs until my own ribs hurt, wanted to be cool and go to the fashion show afterparty and fell asleep with the bf at 10PM instead, got 8+ mosquito bites in a 10-min photoshoot, wanted to fast for the show and ended up eating chocolate chip pancakes instead and got to bond with the boyfriend over watching blockbuster movies in bed (finally saw Iron Man 1, now we can see Iron Man 2!!). How was everyone else's weekend?

  33. Sounds like you were quite a busy bee this weekend! I love the outfit - seems you have quite the enviable collection of blazers. I actually saw SATC2 yesterday, and I totally see what you mean about this outfit being inspired by the clothes in the movie! I heard the movie was terrible, but even if only for the clothes - I loved it!
