High School Sweetheart

Sweater: Wild Man Vintage, $10 // Dress: Britches, $30 // Tights: Target, $5 // Shoes: Forever 21, $30 // Glasses: Urban Outfitters, $10

I'm not certain what era this sweater is actually from, but it feels so '50s. Though I've never featured it on the blog, I've worn it many times and always have the urge to pair it with these glasses. The combination makes me feel like a huge dork in the best possible way.

This is one of my favorite looks you've ever pulled together - definitely the best of the 30x30 thus far! That sweater is just sublime, and I love it with the plum of the dress. Dorkiness looks good, yo!

Eeep!! I love that sweater!! This whole outfit is just perfect!

I'm looking forward to checking out Wild Man Vintage. I'm visiting a friend in June and I am pretty much excited about going to that store again. They have really good deals for a vintage store.

the glasses, the pleat skirt, the white swooping border on your cardigan and the mix of colours is just perfect. Sweet as pie and just beautiful!

That is such a fab sweater. I love the color and stitched detail. I would love to see it with a poodle skirt or something with tulle or volume!
