Going out in style... Major Betty Style!!

 

I guess I should start this blog post by saying that the title was hard to make a final decision on- but I came to this one and figured it was appropriate. I am sad to say this will be my last blog post for Major Betty :(

But I figured I would go out with a bang and post my favorite vintage find!! When I found this camel cape with leopard trim, it truly completed my life! It is everything!! (besides my kiddo and hubby) :)

I was doing a cupcake delivery to Augusta, Ga and decided to swing into this vintage shop on the square called The Maze. I died when I saw it- it was in perfect condition and the price was an even bigger culprit to my demise- $38.00!!!

 

 This little blog has been the funnest little thing I have done in a long while, but I have to focus my time on other things- like things that actually make me money and not cause me to spend it! :)

So I am off to my next adventure and hope you guys have enjoyed my little outfits along the way :)

Thanks a bunch!!

All mixed up... In a good way!

Never being one to shy away from mixing patterns, I paired my beloved striped Forever21 boat neck top with my watercolor printed skirt from the Prabal Gurung collection that came to Target a couple of months back. My bold, chunky necklace ties the skirt in with it's similar coral color and I kept my shoes neutral :)

 Top- Forever21; Skirt- Prabal Gurung for Target (no longer available) Also love this one from Modcloth!; Necklace- Premier Jewelry (old) Also love this coral statement necklace from LuLu's!; Shoes- Jaysie from Shoemint (now on sale for $49.99)

Leather in the summer?... Yes please!

I fell in love with these faux leather paneled leggings from BCBG that I picked up from one of my local boutiques All Together! I thought since they have so much impact on their own, I would keep the rest of the outfit casual, so I paired them up with my new little tank from Victoria's Secret and my trusty go-to fedora! These leggings are so light weight that they totally work in the summer time to beat the heat, but they are also going to be so great with a big chunky long sweater in the fall and winter! (I already have one in mind sitting in my closet ready to be paired up!)

 

Tank- Victoria's Secret; Leggings- BCBG from All Together Boutique; Shoes- Jessica Simpson (no longer available) Also in love with these from Sole Society!; Fedora- Target (in stores only); Lip color- Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick in Infrared Matte; Nail color- Mally 24/7 gel color in Big Apple

Red, White & Blue... Retro Style!

 

I'm never one to get very festive when a holiday rolls around, so this is my take on 4th of July style! I took the idea of going red, white & blue and added my own retro spin to it! I love my navy polka dot shorts from Ann Taylor! I have been wearing them all summer and paired with these heels from Target, I felt very vintage Riviera and pinup-ish!
