Gold Brocade Jacket Christian Dior | Quilted Bag, Black Pants, Earring and Rings Forever 21 | Gold Peep-Toe Ruffle Flats Steve MaddenI am going to stop attempting taking my photo on Wednesdays nights when I have class. 1) It is getting darker earlier and I like taking my photos outside (which will be problematic once it starts raining) and 2) I utilize time before class to finish homework and cram before a quiz/exam. Being a student while working full-time is actually kind of hard. 
That being said, I wanted to share Thursdays outfit since it seems worth sharing because of the amazing jacket. I generally prefer Crossroads Trading Co. over Buffalo Exchange, but in this case I make an exception. During my Las Vegas trip in July, I found this amazing gold brocade jacket by Christian Dior at a Buffalo Exchange in Las Vegas. I went thrifting looking for something that sparkled, and I was not disappointed.
My look is kind of edgy today, perfect for going out for some cocktails after a long day at work. (And it was long since I worked an extra hour and deserved the cocktails I had with some coworkers!) I would have loved to wear this 40’s-inspired jacket with heels, but the flats matched the gold on the jacket perfectly (especially with the little ruffles looking like the roses!) I got a couple of mix reviews from co-workers, but the general consensus was that the jacket looked good on me. (yay!)
What would you wear with this jacket?

Pink and Tan Chevron Print Wrap Dress Diane Von Furstenberg | Speedy 25 Monogrammed Bag Louis Vuitton | Pink and Gold Earrings Forever 21 | Nude Ulltra Pumps Steve MaddenI don’t feel I have many opportunities to wear this dress. The weather needs to be just right where it isn’t too warm for this type of material, but also not too cold since I don’t have the appropriate coat to wear with it. It is made out of wool material, so perfect to be cozy in while you are out enjoying the Fall weather. Unfortunately for me my only neutral in my closet is black. I am on the hunt for some booties that could work with this dress for the winter and a nice pair of tights. Maybe I will find it the same time I find a nice Burberry Trench coat in a thrift store. Hey, you never know. A girl can dream can’t she?

Black Wrap Dress Diane von Furstenberg | Bracelets Forever 21 | Panda Charm Necklace Betsey Johnson | Purse Mulberry for Target | Black Patent Pumps Steve MaddenToday I felt inspired by Audrey Hepburn. I felt like I didn’t want to put to much thought into my look, but wanted to look chic today. This little black dress and minimal jewelry fit the criteria. The girly touches like the bow in the bracelet and the dress keep it from looking too serious. 
Hope you had a lovely, and chic, Monday!

Purple Dress Nanette Lepore | Black Cardigan and Gold Ring Forever 21 | Gold buckle belt  Vintage via Crossroads Trading Co. |  Black Pumps Steve Madden | Black Bag Mulberry for TargetFinally back to dressing up again! This cold is almost gone except for a lingering cough.
I admire the color combo I chose today. I knew black and gold worked together, but who would have thought this light purple would look so regal. I have worn this dress before, but it was a lot more casual as seen here. I like both looks, so this purple dress is going to be seen again and again. It is so versatile, and comfortable!
