OUTFIT POST: tall socks, super high tops

SUPER HIGH ME: pairing tall socks and high tops with a long sweater for a casual look.
Seattle spring means you wanna look fresh and spring-y but still need to stay warm. It's usually a bit chillier than it looks. No problem when you've got a fun and funky thrifted sweater to pair with a super old pair of thigh high socks (first worn here!) and a extra funky pair of kicks: super high, high tops sneaks. 


Deck That Neck: vintage flapper era crochet caviar beaded lariat available HERE
The palette is pretty much a mix of graphic black and white with a shot of color. Here's my mug sportin' yet another trucker hat. I don't even care that it's not a bit of flattering on me! I am just enjoying slapping on on my unruly hair and getting on with my life. The vintage caviar beaded lariat is a bit too nice for my outfit, it's probably more apropo on a blushing bride who loves the roaring 20's but when you feel the urge to deck yourself out, you have to just do what you gotta do and deck the neck. 

Outfit is 100% THRIFTED. Hat, top and sweater and shoes all came from my neighborhood Goodwill. Socks and shorts have been in my wardrobe for a handful of years. The socks were from a prize in a blogger give-away (The Fashionista Next Door) and I picked these plaid socks that I've worn for nearly 7 years! Wish I had another pair, as these are getting pretty threadbare. 

So whadda ya'll think? Am I dressed to express?
