Sorry for the lack of posts this past week! Exam week is finally coming to an end, and I have my last exam tomorrow morning.

Exciting news, Monday afternoon Patrick and I took some photos with a friend who does photography in his spare time off of school. His photography is superb and we were lucky to be able to get some shots from him! Unfortunately, a bunch of the shots were lost somehow, but there are a lot of great pics from his studio that I will post in the next few days.

This is what I wore to go thrifting today. I hit up the Salvation Army and Goodwill. Yesterday I went to 4 other thrift stores and only ended up with a skirt, but today I came home with 5 dresses and a suit! Now, I know what you are thinking. "A suit??? What in the world do you need a suit for? Silly college girl." However, this isn't just any suit. This is a vintage Chanel off-white wool suit originally from Bergdorf Goodman. I was about to purchase my dresses from Salvation Army (a bunch of ones that remind me of Zooey D, at that!) when I decided to scan the blazers and just happened to see this gorgeous suit. It is so beautiful and the wool is amazing! It's the real deal. It just so happens that Wednesday is the Salvation Army's 1/2 off everything but furniture day... So the suit that was $13 ended up being $6.50. AMAZING. I'm having the worst time trying to decide to sell it or keep it... I think I'm going to sell it..................or keep it... ARGH.

Outfit Details:
Scarf: Plato's Closet
Plaid Shirt: Thrifted
Jeans: Bullhead
Oxfords: 1thingleads
