Mixing Navy and Black

Ooooooh, scandalous. Navy and Black. I am personally a fan of all kinds of ill-advised color pairings.

I also really love both of these pieces on their own. The blazer was my first big-ticket gift to self when I started working part time at Gap and I adore the fit.  Let's just say my waist is little and I'm flat as a pancake without the help of a push-up... and this blazer nips and fits in all the right place. The dress is just so classic, so interesting, so beautifully basic. And it was thrifted for pennies. I crap you not, I paid $2.50 in change for this little number.

Also- middle part: yea or nay?

Dress: thrifted...Blazer: Gap...Belt: Target...Shoes: Naturalizer

 And one little funny- I thought the memory card I used was cleared off, but here is the summer time goodie I found from a trip back to Ohio in May: My sisters and I all got to pick out drawings and paintings that my Grandpa made when he was younger. Look closely- I picked out a faux-advertisement for racy stockings and bras.
