My parents just got here last night from spending Thanksgiving in Vegas. YES. Apparently, Vegas celebrates Thanksgiving...and Koreans are only invited. I didn't get the memo. I guess I wasn't Korean enough...or maybe it's because my boyfriend is 6' tall....or white. Whatevs.
I bought myself this gray shirt on Black Friday. It was 50% off + free. And you can't beat that. We also bought some towels because we're grown up now.
Wearing JCPenney shirt (free with gift card), Old Navy belt ($10), handmade skirt from a curtain ($3), JCPenney fishnet tights (free with gift card), Tsubo shoes (courtesy of Tsubo), JCPenney trenchcoat (free with gift card), and JCPenney bag (free with gift card).
Get this look: shirt, belt, tights, shoes, trenchcoat, bag.

goodness, i LOVE that shirt. and the pattern mixing is unexpected and different than your usual and yet works SO well because of two subtle patterns in neutral colors.
i'm cracking up about the vegas thing.
sending you a hug today! xoxo
love the skirt, and yes Vegas is a free-4-all. Next time your in Vegas the outlet mall off charleston has tons of deals and steals to be had.

I never get tired of seeing that skirt and I envy you for not giving into the pressure of always feeling like you have to wear something different! I don't even take pictures of repeat outfits (probably why I haven't taken many pictures lately :P )
ok, your skirt is awesome. how did you sew it?
Look at you! You're tiny tiny tiny, Elaine!!
The skirt is super flattering, esp. in the last photo.
I loooove those tights. WORK.

this is why I got out of Vegas for thanksgiving and came to california to be with my family!
hope you had a great weekend!
That shirt is great, and you can't beat free.
it's okay, i wasn't invited to Vegas either...probably cuz everyone thinks I'm Chinese. Or because my husband is 6' and white also. no worries, you look stylish as always! i love that your mixed the prints together, and the trench is very chic.
happy holidays!

I like your new shirt, and I love your mix of patterns! I always chicken out when it comes to mixing patterns, but you make it look so flawlessly easy!
This combo looks great. The prints are different but pair so well together! And free? I'm ALWAYS a fan of that! :)
Does your 6' tall boyfriend know about your HUSBAND?
love it as always.
i love that that outfit only cost $13! that's amazing. and i adore the pattern mix and match.
Lovely outfit! i love every piece!
Love how u styled the whole outfit with differnt patterns and colors...Its so different yet so chic...
xx
i don't think i have word for this. nothing witty anyway. but i really love it. and i am completely in love with button ups these days.
I love this combo! It's an unexpected and refreshing take on pattern mixing and works so, so, SO well! LOVE it!

Great pattern mixing. I am jealous of your curtain skirt! I want one!
Yep. That is absolutely the CUTEST skirt ever!! And I want it. Like, now.
:0]]
I love that you re-wear your clothes. So does everyone else. Nothing to be ashamed of. Plus, your clothes are too fabulous not to re-wear.

You're really spending that $1,000 gift card. I thought you were saving it for something else. Oh well, at least you're picking out great pieces at great prices :)
Just Better Together

Vegas for the holidays is not only for Koreans! I'm Chinese and it's how I've always spent the holidays! :) Now when we don't go for one {Thanksgiving or Xmas] I will long to go to Vegas for the other. I must go for at least one of the holidays or I feel sad. heheh - 50% off + Free is my kinda Black Friday!

haha you really are funny!i love your gray shirt and can't stopped getting amazed at how you made your own skirt!

Not gonna lie, there definitely are a lot of Asians in Vegas!
I'm pretty new to fashion. (Well, I've always tried to stay trendy but recently I'm just starting to experiment with it.) I have no clue to how to math colors and prints. I would have NEVER thought to pair these two pieces together. Yet, they look so adorable. Any quick tips or advice on pairing prints/colors?
this combination is very, very original... and I love the skirt

black friday is the DAY to shop!! the shirt looks great with the skirt!
xx
Great new shirt. And I so understand the need to wear something new in a totally new combination. I need to remind myself that is not why I started the blog.
ooo that shirt is fabulous!
I cannot get enough of that skirt. The End.
heyy..yr look so damn cool dear .

Seriously, where are you getting all these JCPenney giftcards? That's awesome!
I spent Thanksgiving in Vegas! Don't remember all the Asians, but we only went to the strip once. Funny.
Thanksgiving in Vegas sounds like a great time! Love these tights, such a great print.
I'm heading to vegas for new years we should meet up! Thats an official invite lol I love how you mixed the patterns with i was brave enough! And you have to post how you made that skirt just the other day i found curtains in my basement that i think would be a super cute skirt.
Thanks for the awesome post!

Love the bag
I think your skirt has inspired me to make my own skirts. It's so difficult to find cute skirts that are knee length or longer! And I love the different textures in your outfit - those tights were a good touch!
I love this unexpected pattern mix -- and there's no shame in the belt-skirt-shoes combo (though my husband has often asked if that's all I ever wear!). Loved your Vegas story -- what a weird, weird place it is. Last time I was there it was at a women's health conference... which was hard to jive with... everything else that was going on.
You always look so classy and feminine in your outfits. I love you pattern mixing here!
