Simple Vintage

I was feeling particularly vintage inspired today when attending a nice lunch with my in laws. It was frigidly cold out today, so I pulled out my grandmother's knit sweater. It has its share of pills and wear, but I can't beat it for warmth and that simple vintage touch it brings! I love the shape and length of it so much.


After leaving the house today I realized I should have worn a MUCH warmer coat. But I'm still in love with this vintage cashmere trench I thrifted. I want to wear it as much as possible!







This topper is one of my very favorites! It works with hair up or down and can be worn with a variety of styles. Although I have noticed that I often wear it with these shoes-I just can't help pairing up two  of my navy and white accessories!



Hope you had a lovely Saturday!
God Bless, 
KJA

I adore that hat! My goodness, Katie, you have quite the collection of things to adorn your head with. I just love it. You always make me want to wear all sorts of doo-dads in my hair. :)

And your sweater is lovely! I think the pilling looks intentional. You always looks super pretty in blue! <3

I hope that your weekend is going well!
