Black & White

Top: Vintage via Goodwill, $4 // Jeans: Courtesy of Fossil // Shoes: Vintage, thrifted, $1 // Earrings: Forever 21, $8

Yesterday I had a thrift craving, so I hit up Goodwill. Not looking for anything in particular, I scanned the racks and spotted this sleeveless sweater. While I have several black & white striped pieces in my closet, I have long been looking for something with extra wide lines in true mod fashion. My haircut has definitely influenced my style, and this kind of clean, bold aesthetic is exactly what I feel like wearing right now!

What I love about having short hair is that it actually gives me a new surge to try new styles. The wide black and white stripes go perfectly with the cropped 'do! The pop of pink is so cute, too. :)

it's interesting that you mentioned your haircut influencing your style. i have a full straight fringe and i often feel like my hair is too bold for some outfits.

i love your new do though! it's very rosemary's baby...you should try out some mia farrow-esque smocks and tights for autumn :-)

This is a fab mod look, especially with that sweet pop of pink! Your haircut definitely gives you that mod Twiggy/Edie Sedgwick kinda vibe. :)
