{cardigan: vintage (simlar styleHERE); pencil skirt: vintage c/o: RileyBella123 (similar style HERE); loafer heels: MIA; clutch: vintage (similar style HERE); earrings: vintage; bracelets: David Yurman; watch: Michael Kors}

I felt like a 50's vixen while wearing this vintage number over the weekend. Love a pencil skirt, especially when it's super long and high-wasited. This skirt is wool, so it will keep me warm through the cold winter months. Love love love this vintage beaded cardi too... it was a thrift find of mine about a year ago and I still can't believe someone would want to get rid of it... it's in pristine condition.

I hope ya'll had a great weekend. The hubby and I decorated our home into a winter wonderland, picked out our Christmas tree, and did a little Christmas shopping. Both of our Birthday's are in the month of Decemeber (hubby's the 2nd and mine the 22nd), so naturally we love this time of year... wish we could keep our Christmas decor up longer ;)

P.S.I want to thank all of ya'll for the compassionate comments and prayers. The hubby and I are staying strong, and feel so blessed to have a support system filled with amazing family and friends. It's nice to know I have made such great friends with all of ya'll, despite our distance and never meeting one another. Your thoughts and comments mean so much.

    You look retro gorgeous! Isn't it crazy what some people donate? I guess they don't have any relatives (like me) to snap that stuff up. :)

    I love the beautiful details on that cardigan- so pretty!! And it looks wonderful paired with that skirt!

    On a separate note, I want to say I'm so sorry for your loss. I have not spoken of this on my blog, but I had a miscarriage last month as well, so I truly feel your pain. Stay strong.

    You look stunning, JEN! Love everything head-to-toe! This month has turned super crazed for me with tons of events and coverage and work, but I will try try try to get this swap item photographed and off to Noa for her to do the same! I hope we can get this done by the end of the year, if not - soon, soon after! xoxo
