Some of you may have noticed that I have disappeared from this blog in the past few months. While I made a resolution to do more writing for fun in the new year, I’ve struggled to do so. This is mostly because I’ve had to reserve much of that creative energy to tackle other projects in my professional life.
That doesn’t mean this year hasn’t involved plenty of fun adventures outside of work. To balance a busy start to the year, I’ve been scheduling time away from the screen and rediscovering my love of running, a pastime I’ve had difficulty sticking with ever since moving to Portland. However, I committed to changing that this year and have been logging in plenty of miles.
Today, I’m taking you back to fall with this vintage suede skirt outfit. To me, this skirt serves as an example of how certain pieces can stand the test of time. It’s extremely versatile, looks great with other items in my closet (both new and old), and is in excellent condition. Funny enough, this $30 find still had tags on it when I bought it.
However, my love of vintage extends beyond this skirt. I love hunting down vintage because it gives me an opportunity to build my wardrobe with pieces that are one-of-a-kind. I also enjoy the thrill that comes with perusing through racks before finding the one gem that truly stands out. You just don’t get that kind of experience at a department store.
