Classic Bling

I am not and never will be Audrey Hepburn. I am not and never will be Twiggy. I am not and... you see my point. There is a certain excitement that comes from being your own person. These two ladies along with many other men, women, and other people inspire me each day whether it be on morals, fashion, or talent. Despite how much you want to be like them, you will never be them and that is realistic because you are you. BUT who said you can't be impacted by them? This look was inspired by Audrey and Twiggy along with plenty of personal flair known as "Skylar" because there is no need for being someone you're not!


The sunglasses I am sporting are from Unique Vintage and are known as the 'Clear & Rhinestone Embellished Princess Mano Cat Eye Sunglasses' for their royal qualities. Their chrome-like lenses and silver, gold, and transparent embellishments ensure the ability to make a statement. A special thanks to my cousins for surprising me with these beauties for the holidays!

 

My dress is not from a vintage inspired label, but is from Target... otherwise known as my home haha! But, to put a more dominant retro twist on the modern LBD, I wore a black belt from Hip Hop '50s Shop around my waist to emit a stronger vintage vibe.


My shoes are the black penny loafers from Macy's that I mentioned in my previous post of which you can expect to see in plenty more of my looks. I think they will end up being my newest staple in my closet; so classy but so funky all at once!


This beautiful five strand faux pearl necklace with the darling embellished silver flower is from I Am An Audrey. It is a replica piece of the iconic necklace that Audrey Hepburn gracefully wore as Holly Golightly in the world renowned romantic comedy, Breakfast at Tiffany's. It is so classy and so accurate to the movie, simply breathtaking. 


This flushed baby pink coat is also from Unique Vintage. It features a signature bow when the top button is clasped and is so soft and fashionable for any feminine 1960s admirer. You can find it as being the 'Retro Style Light Pink Bow Button Up Mod Jacket'.

PS. It is currently on sale for only $53.00! Get it fast before it sells out and before winter comes to an end!

Throughout this collection of photos you may have noticed the reflection in my sunglasses otherwise known as my amazing mom! Since you are probably reading this, mom, I want to thank you for being the best photographer for my blog and Instagram despite how strange I may be or how cold it can be outside!

Lots of love,

Skylar :-)
