hard/soft
Yesterday my sweet Bruklyn Belle and I went out to take photos. It was the perfect opportunity to wear this "new" thrifted blouse I got the other week at goodwill. It's so pretty! I have been on quite the sheer kick lately. Everything I end up purchasing and keeping for myself has pretty, sheer fabric. I thought I would try this underwear/outerwear look. I'm a verrrryyy modest girl, but I love challenging myself and doing things I wouldn't normally do with my wardrobe so I figured this look would be perfect.
I paired this blouse with one of my favorite skirts, I loved how it turned out! I also brought along this amazing, ultra chic, custom made vintage blazer that I purchased sometime in the beginning of last year. It was made for a woman in the 1960's. I love hearing back stories when I purchase items!
One of my favorite things in fashion is mixing textures/styles. I love to pair really feminine garments with edgy bits here and there. Mixtures of hard and soft can be so complimentary! I challenge you all to try this out. Trust me, you'll have fun.

Pretty blouse! I've actually only just started wearing sheer tops lately myself, I'm pretty modest too. It's fun though, and I love all my pretty sheer clothes. And you look lovely! What a great blouse to find at a thrift store.
