denim for days

Its been so nice out and of course I do not have any summer clothes! So I played it safe and did some denim on denim. My skirt is thrifted and the button down is from target! Pretty good steal on both of these items. The sandals are Aldo and I forgot how much I loved them and they go with anything. Enjoy!

America!

Lately I have been in the biggest rut, but I am changing that as of today! To solve this problem: I started running and getting more serious about my diet/workout, started blogging and changing my location, and looking for new jobs and getting serious about moving! It has been beautiful in Buffalo and I figured I should pay my local marina a visit. I didn't realize how great this place was. I am wearing a thrifted american flag knit top, thrifted/DIY vintage shorts, Prabal Gurung for target strappy heels, and my ray ban sunnies! I hope you are enjoying your day! Enjoy! 

S.P.R.I.N.G

Finally it felt like spring in Buffalo! I didn't even have to put on a jacket it was a miracle! I had some running around to do on my day off so I wore my new Blank jeans that have white leather details. Blank denim might be my favorite denim brand. They always fit correctly and have the best new styles and prints! Also, I wore my thrifted mens button down that I added some flowers too. Enjoy!

gentlemen's club

Last week was not so good, I had to put down my guinea pig that I have had for 7 years. If you know  me then you know he was my baby! Even when I talk or think about him now, it still makes me sad! But on to happier things... Today I had to do running around for Vamp and Vixen so i wore my thrifted mens blazer and American Apparel disco pants with thigh high boots. Enjoy your day!! 

Updates!

This week has been craaaazzyy! I have been feeling a bit under the weather for the past few weeks and earlier this week I had to go to the hospital for a kidney infection! I am still feeling weak and exhausted but trying to get back to feeling like myself and getting back into my routine of things. Also, I started a new job and with being sick it has been a little difficult (to say the least)! I love my new job and I am just trying to adjust to the early (very early) hours and long days but it is great! 

So now onto the clothes... I have been going hard on shoes lately! I am going to Paris in June so I am collecting cute flats and sandals that I can walk around in. I am not a flat shoe gal whatsoever so it is never fun for me to find shoes with no heels. 

The first two are from Zara and I have been eyeing down the black strappy flat sandals. The nude high heels I could not stay away from, they come in a red color I might have to purchase as well. The last pair are jellies and amazing! I remember dying over my jelly sandals when I was a little girl. I splurged on these Stuart Weitzman shoes because I couldn't turn them down! 

Next subject! I am not sure if too many of you know but myself and one of my besties ( Chelsea) have started a business together! It is just the beginning stages but it is very exciting. We have been working on reconstructing amazing vintage pieces and great t shirt/tank designs. We are hoping to launch late spring/early summer but for now please check us out on instagram: @vampandvixen and twitter: @vamp_and_vixen!! If you have any design ideas or things you really want to see for summer styles you can always send us an email at: vampandvixen! Enjoy your Patty's Day!!

old school leather

 

My mom bought these leather pants for me off of eBay and I had forgot all about them until I was cleaning my room the other day. I have been wanting trouser/track leather pants but couldn't afford the designer ones for $600 and up! I think these bad ones were about $20 and I am obsessed with them! I think for spring and summer time I am going to invest in lots of crop tops from American Apparel to go with these leather pants. Enjoy!!

fringe love

 

Yesterday night I had one of my best friend's birthday dinner at a sushi restaurant! I received this fringe jacket as a Christmas present and was waiting for the right time to wear it. Although it is still cold here in Buffalo, I could still get away with wearing it. I need to get a move on today so Enjoy!!

librarian status

 

Sorry about my lack of posting last week! I of course did not have a computer but I am crossing my fingers that I am getting one within the next few days! But anyways, I just purchased these amazing and cozy Blank jeans. I absolutely love the way this brand fits. Since my body has changed a bit since I was 18 I have to finally accept the fact that I have curves and need to embrace them. And Blank denim definitely embraces my curves! Today is such a lazy day, so I decided to break out my librarian thrifted shirt. I don't know why but I love this shirt. Enjoy your day!

more beetlejuice!

I brought out my beetlejuice jacket again! It brings some interest to any boring outfit, and It always adds on another print to my outfit as well which I love. I usually don't wear these shoes because they are chunky and make me feel self conscious, but they are so cute so I can deal with it. I have a busy day and meeting up with my business partner! Check out her blog at http://angstyprincess.blogspot.com/ ... Enjoy!

 



red lipstick or die

So I usually always resort to wear pants or mini skirts and in my closet I neglect all my long, flowy skirts. This skirt is sometimes not flattering because of the stripes but I love prints so I bought it anyway. Prints on prints are my go to so I kept it simple with nude pumps and these particular heels are from target AND they are awesommmee! I had a similar pair of nude heels from Aldo and they did not hold up at all, so when I saw these Target shoes were $30, I immediately grabbed them! Enjoy!



boss lady attire

 

Today I had an interview, so I was really trying to tone down my outfit! It was hard believe me. I still wanted to mix prints so I picked out this ombre angora sweater from H&M and paired it with these BCBG heels. I am not usually a leopard print girl but I have been getting a lot of use out of them lately. I sort of have a love/hate relationship with tights so I opted to not wear them today, It might have been smart to wear them because it is snowy and very cold out but oh well! Enjoy!

im a loser baby

Running around thrifting all day was so exhausting and I needed an outfit that was easy to move around in! I have been wanting to try this shirt around my waist deal from the 90s and I love how it looks with this outfit. This may be a new staple in my wardrobe. I have lots of DIYing to do and washing all my new thrift finds. Enjoy!
