A few family members have teased me about some of my Ralph Lauren vintage purchases- namely things with animal print. To that I say, “HA! Ralph Lauren is too fabulous to make fashion mistakes.” Of course, there were some questionable choices in vintage lines like this, or even this… But all in all I will always love Ralph, from his bedding to his towels to this vintage white (with tackly gold buttons) jacket. Are you faithful to Ralph or another designer inspite of (non)flaws?

Springing forward with my $1 thrifted sweater!

This weekend when I dropped off some clothes at the consignment shop I found this clearance sweater for $1. I NEVER find bargains that ridiculously good, but this sweater was a winter one that no one snapped up. I would not have worn this in winter because the colors are too Spring, so the timing worked out. Perfect for my Mad Men celebration pedal pushers. Do you wear these colors in winter or are you like me, a seasonal color scheme planner?
