OOTD: Vintage Chic

I had bought this vintage blouse on a website named IAMMI after seeing an Instagram post from that site. I had this sitting in my closet for quite a while (really bad habit of mine, hoarding clothes). I decided to wear it for my sister's birthday party because I refused to buy a new outfit. I was supposed to take it to a tailor to have the arms taken in but the procrastinator in me never did so I wore it with a belt to give it shape.

This Year I Will Dress Up As..

One of the biggest stye icons of all time: Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly. Breakfast at Tiffany's is one of my favorite movies so this year I will finally dress up as the classic Holly Golightly for Halloween. I'm thinking of adding a zombie twist to make it a bit creepy.  An oldie but a goodie. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, dressing up is so much fun and I love going trick or treating with my son and niece and nephews. I have a great appreciation for creative costumes, some people think up genius get ups. Though I do cringe whenever I see a sexed up version of a cop or nurse. Be more creative ladies!

I already have a black dress as well as the tiara. For the necklace I will be attaching a brooch to several strands of pearls. All I need is the gloves and the cigarette holder which should be easy enough to locate. I will be doing a tutorial this week on Audrey-inspired make-up. What will you be dressing as? I would love to know!

ta-ta for now,
