Houndstooth City


It's been a long time since I walked down the streets of the city. I Feel like this year in particular I've been keeping to myself and spending a lot of time at home, or just visiting antique/thrift stores. This is partially due to the pandemic but also the weather, its hard to walk around outside when its slushy and -20. I used to be such a social butterfly, I was always out doing things with friends and going out but somewhere along the pandemic that changed. I could write and entire blog post on this and I'm sure a lot of people feel this way. Actually I know I'm not the only one because I've seen a lot of people talk about this. This winter was especially hard, which is strange because we are starting to come out of the pandemic. 

 But on a lighter note it was a beautiful day so I decided to go outside and I accidentally created my new favourite outfit, its PERFECT for spring.  I got this black wool pleated skirt a couple of months ago at the thrift store. Its not show stopping or unique but I thought it would be a nice basic for everyday or when I need something to wear on a cold day with a long coat. I did get this hat on boxing day back in December at an antique store, I love the shape and I knew I wanted to wear it out.  I looked in my closet and I dug out this little houndstooth jacket thats was gifted to me from Shein (this was from YEARS ago, I don't support this company for obvious reasons)  They happened to pair perfectly!  I decided to go with the black and white theme so I grabbed these two toned shoes. I've had these for a while, but I haven't had much of a chance to show off my nice shoes during the pandemic, so I thought this was the perfect opportunity. During the pandemic I've been wearing block heels or kitten heels (I actually don't think I own flat shoes? except saddle shoes) But I'm excited to pull out some of my higher heels now that the slush and snow are gone! I used to exclusively wear higher heels on a daily basics unless it was going somewhere super casual then I would wear block heels.  I'm excited to get back to my usual footwear lol. did your style change during the pandemic?  If you want to see more of this look check out my outfits of the week video below!
