Blazer: Vintage Sonia Rykiel / Dress: Vintage / Tights: Dollar Store / Shoes: Le Chateau / Bag: Vintage Chanel / Locket: H&M
When some people get asked who their biggest fashion influence is it's not uncommon to hear them answer to the question with : my mother. Maybe because she is the first person you've ever layed your eyes upon, that you've admired her everyday growing up as you were playing dress up in her size 8 heels. Unfortunately for me, it's not my case. As much as I adore my mom, she's not very fashion inclined...or make-up inclined. Don't get me wrong, my mother is good-looking, takes care of herself and dresses well but I seems to be the one teaching her on the subject. While getting ready for an event or a party, she's the one coming to me for advice or to get her make-up done and not the other way around. I can't count the number of times she's wondered aloud where my passion came from and why I was so interested in everything that has to do with fashion. But you know what! Even if it would sometimes be cool to have a mother who knows all the hot designers, I think It might even be more fun to be the one teaching her.

PS. As you can see, yesterday the thrifting god smiled upon me once again. I had been thinking a lot yesterday as to why I hadn't found a vintage designer piece in a while. I almost though my luck was gone...well, NOT!

And i totally agree. ITS DEF. BETTER TO BE THE ONE TEACHING THEM!!!!!!
My mom is a classy lady, she plays it safe in her outfits. and she always looks good. but she DOES come to me for styling and purchasing advice. not because im an authority but because she knows im interested in it :) I would hate to have a mom who follows the trends- you know the one?! ;) lol!!

That has got to be the most perfect blazer on the entire planet!
I have a very similar blazer but never thought to pair it with red heels - looks amazing!
BTW - do you live in the country? How do you get such access to so many amazing backdrops??
PS I can totally related - I dress my mom, without me she's hopeless. Though being Finnish she does have a Scandinavian simple aesthetic that I admire - stripes, stripes, stripes!
Love love love love love. The dress, the SHOES, the blazer, the hair, everything! Seriously gorgeous photos.
The outift suits the scenery and looks fab!
