..Leather & Polka Dots

November 14, 2011

Oversize Spot Tee - Topshop - $75 | Maison Martin Margiela Leather Mini-Skirt - $500 | Kelsi Dagger Odessa Black | Suede Bootie - $150 | Enamel Green Bangle - Missselfridge.com - $14 | Juicy Couture Princess Stud Earrings - $48
I just discovered that there are tons of older items in my closet that can be paired with new ones to breathe new life into them.  I bought this leather skirt over two years ago from South Moon Under  (it's amazing that I found a link to it!) and this top from Piperlime a few weeks ago.  I hadn't worn the skirt in so long I forgot I even owned it.  I just need to throw on some some pretty emerald accessories and black booties and I have an outfit that feels totally new even though it's partly old.  I love when this happens (and so does my budget)!  Do you guys have any old friends you've brought back into the rotation recently?
