Make it Vintage!

I'm starting a new weekly event where I take a modern outfit and 'make it vintage' by piecing together vintage items inspired by the look, attitude, and color scheme of the original look!

This week's look is inspired by J. Crew's 'Looks We Love.'


 The individual items in this outfit can be found on J. Crew's site here. The items total $380.50!!

Now let's Make it Vintage!!

Grey High Waist Vintage Shorts from FellowTravelers: $22

Yellow Secretary Blouse from ellenlee $16

Gitano Vintage Pink Sandals from ChicasVintage $16.80

Vintage Alpaca Sweater from englishrosevintageoh $19.99

The total for the vintage outfit: $74.79!!

What do you think? Do you ever use photos from magazines or catalogs to inspire your outfits?
