Perfect fall weather- cool enough for sweaters and scarves, warm enough not to require a jacket. I wanted to wear these cute heels and still be casual for class today, so I paired them with boyfriend jeans and a cropped sweater. This lightweight scarf is one that I bought years ago at World Market. All these items are examples of versatile staple pieces that can be worn in lots of different ways and will last through the years. Buy less, keep stuff longer, and still have a great wardrobe.

Hi everyone! First of all, let me take a second to explain my recent lack of posts.

When I started this blog last year, I had a job at a resale clothing store which allowed me not only access to lots of great pieces at affordable prices, but the ability to dress creatively at work. That shop has since closed. As a student, I’ve still got a little while to go before I can get a full-time job in my field. I now work two part-time jobs, each of which requires me to dress in a certain way. Long story short, I have limited free time and I don’t get to dress the way I’d like to unless I have a day off! However, I intend to get back to posting regularly on my days off, especially now that my favorite season is here.

That said, here’s today’s casual rainy day look, complete with what might just be my greatest resale find from my former job- this London Fog raincoat.

I haven’t posted in a while because it’s been so cold outside. And by cold, I mean that a layer of frost forms on the INSIDE of my apartment window at night.

So here are a few poorly executed indoor selfies of today’s outfit before I head out to class!

Vintage hand-me-downs can be fun, not to mention cheap. And recycling and reusing clothing is a great way to reduce consumption and save money. Here’s my super casual Election Day outfit, complete with hand-me-down sweatshirt and hat. I’m in love with these boots, my most recent shoe purchase: The Scooter by Novacas. Nice boots can make even an outfit this casual look a bit more polished.

And of course, I’m rocking my “I voted” sticker.
