This little 80's jacket my mom picked up at Salvation Army on Tuesday is killer. I'm so into it! Sadly it is not mine for keeps. Expect to see this cutie on the vintage site soon.
I love wearing these little bandage tube tops in the summer-I got mine at Mango last year.
I had fun playing with it though.
These glasses were purchased at Buffalo Exchange in Austin for eight dollars. Kinda goofy but a little bit good too I think. Speaking of goofy, aren't I great at doing my hair? Oh geez…
Givenchy wedges…oops is that a blister I see? Ouch. Whatever.
Whoever gets this jacket is a lucky lady. It'll be up next week I think. I'm not in charge of that stuff so I don't know for sure.
The silk boxing shorts are Dries van Noten-purchased at By George in Austin. I'm in love with them! I'm thinking they will be perfect for Tokyo this summer-they're light and airy and perfect for humid weather.
My mom used to sell to By George back when she had her line. I'm going back to By George soon and can't wait to do a post on their amazing store.
*I realize I am way, way behind on my email-hopefully I'll get back to them soon. Things are so crazy with the school and the blog. Seems like they are constantly at odds. Gotta budget my time carefully. I have so much homework due next week not to mention a scary, scary test. (DP Biology…shudder…anyone who's ever taken a higher level IB Biology course knows what I mean)

that jacket is STUNNING!!
I love the whole outfit sooo much
I like your hair! It goes with with the outfit! I love your jacket but I in deep love with the silk shorts! Aah.
You’re so inspiring Jane :)

I’m loving everything except the color of the bandage top with the rest of it. I’m not really feeling the red with the colors in the jacket. Just my two cents, but I’d probably have gone with black, or a color that contrasted with the pink of the jacket.
This is one of my favorite outfits of yours. Very cool.
Cool shades. And the jacket is great too. Sorry you can’t keep it!
very nagel-esque, no?
and Dries just keeps getting better.
<3
The jacket is so great. I also love your lipstick in these photos, it’s a super-flattering color on you!
Yeah! IB! Rock on! This is my first comment despite lurking for ages, but just wanted to say I love your blog and that jacket is amazing.
wow, i love this outfit. and it’s thrifted too! so original with a vintage flair.

Cute short Jane!!!!
I was just at those stores in Austin. I thought the buffalo had some great stuff. being from chicago, it had the perfect amount of texas vintage to bring home as a souvenir instead of typical souvenir things.

Sharp, edgy jacket…Love it!
I used to teach DP Art at an international IB school. As you know, it’s very challenging, but such a good program. I feel for you. Good luck w/ the test!
xo
I really love that jacket! If I wasn’t budgeting, I’d be anxiously waiting for it to show up for sale. And I think the glasses rock. You should keep them because such few people could pull them off.

I love everything about this outfit…but those shorts are perfection.
Looking lovely as usual.

IB Biology *gags* i know EXACTLY what you mean – imagine I’m doing Biology AND Chemistry
But anyway, the jacket is undescribable very retro futuristic *thumbs up*
oh shoot you know IB!!!!!!!!!!!!
wow i feel less alone in the stress
haha
I took it this year (junior) and it’s seriously the most nerve wrecking class in the world
i go to school sick as hell just b/c i know if i miss a day ima be screwed for the whole grading period
i’m so glad i’m dropping it next year
everything else i’m keeping (uh..except math, moving from HL to SL…i’m not a math person :/ )
and i want those glasses!
haha
HL Bio?! you’re crazy girl! I’m doing SL Chem lol
HL English, Spanish & History. piece of cake =]
& I am now motivated to go to salvation army this weekend lol
that jacket is killer!
what a great find!! Im a major thrifter and I am jealous :)
Good luck on your biology exam – I wasn’t in the IB program during high school, but I now do lab work as a graduate student in biology (well, bioengineering, but close enough!) …all day every day. I love it, but it makes my clothing quite on the boring side. Ah well. I live for days off that are far and few between…
Also – my best trick for blisters is using liquid bandage before even putting my shoes on! Works wonders :)
It goes without saying that you always look amazing and absolutely stunning.
I love your lipstick! What is the shade/brand?
yuck – i remember IB! i was an IB diploma graduate way back in the day ;-) good luck!
love that jacket with the new silk shorts! by george is FABULOUS and i’m so glad you got to visit Buffalo Exchange too!
I freakin’ love this outfit! The picture with you in front of the window is amazingly awesome!!
love the jacket and your bag!
great outfit. i am seriously in love with the jacket by the way!
Great outfit! espesially the shoes:)
You look great! I kind of like your messy chic bun, actually. Oh, and sorry about the blister :( I always get them when I wear lovely shoes!
Good luck for your test! Your jacket is sickkkkk!! x
IB :| i just got mine over with so glad its outta my life! good luck with bio jane!

Grey and pink! A delicious combination. And with the sharp lines and smart lapels, that really is an awesome jacket.
Congrats to whoever gets their hands on it!
OMG, those shoes are just 2D4! Was so upset when I thought I bought the Dries Van Noten multicoloured (blue) sandals from By George online, only to be told several days after I ‘purchased’ them that they sold out :( They stock awesome stuff though! Would love to see the store IRL!
xx
That jacket is just amazing and I do love the glasses!
that jacket is killer. I would definitely be keeping!! there’s going to be mad rush for them when they go on the store!
and those shorts… so good!

Nice jacket! I envy your warm weather. I took Higher Level IB Biology — all I can say is good luck!
You’re going to Tokyo?! How exciting!
This outfit reminds me of Blade Runner. and that jacket looks in mint condition! i’m jealous!
By George is one of my favorite Austin haunts. We have a house in Marble Falls…outside of Austin. I bitch and moan until we take our detour so I can see what’s new at ByG.
hey jane! this seems like a shot taken straight out from the sartorialist! excellent!..i really like how u put the outfit together.it reminds me Michael Kors collection for 09 i think (the glasses esp).
I am loving those shorts, and very cool sunglasses!

Any chance you’ll do a Tokyo Style/Travel Guide in future posts?! Heading there in May and would love to hear about places you recommend!
Best of luck w/ school!
You look really really great in Black and Pink! i luv it!
(i’m a French girl but i check out your blog every week, luv ur style)
you look just so amazing!!! this is a really great outfit!! i just adore that little jacket!! :)
Bandage tube tops- I wore them in the ’60s and ’70s under my jumpsuits and overalls! They cost $1.00 then! Please visit my blog that I just started. I would appreciate it if you could tell me how do link my daily reads because I want to put you on it (as well as your mom!). Thanks for the inspiration! xo
Oops, boy am I new at this- it said that my URL was automatically linked but didn’t link the address. It’s http://styleobsession.typepad.com. Thanks for any help you can give me!
I’m in love with this look Jane! And the glasses are sweet!
I simply love it!! Beautiful!
ah, the dries shorts are EVERYTHING I’VE EVER WANTED. jealzzzz
Silk in Tokyo is bad…think wet and drippy. Wet silk is very obvious. Outfit is adorable though.
I still love your prada bag.. *sigh* http://isnotfashion.blogspot.com/
You look stupid as fuck.
The shocking pink color makes the jacket looks GREAT!
Love it so much, wish I could have it:)
Anyway, I’m a fashion editor and I love your blog specially the way you write about your daily stylish life. Superb!
Kiss,

I really love the flowiness of your shorts, with the sharp edges of your jacket – they go well together
and of course, the Givenchy’s are beautiful :)

You totaly look like a model. And those photos. Jummy! :D
I love that you shopped at Buffalo Exchange and By George.. I live in Austin and attend UT (and was also at sxsw)! Someone asked to take my picture for style.com and I thought it was awesome… I would have been just as proud to be on your blog though! You really put things together amazingly and creatively.. keep on keep on
Hi Jane,
Not sure if you’ve seen any of my comments on your blog previously, but just want to know – does red really go with pink? Is it a crime to pair red and pink? I’ve always find it weird pairing red and pink and to see you have a red (more to orange-ish red) with pink blazer (they’re hot!) I wonder if it’s actually okay to pair those two great colors together.. (I’m a dark colored Asian so I get paranoid a lot.Eek! )
I might not be able to check this again on your blog due to many comments you receive and it’ll take forever to load this page up, but do you mind replying this on my email instead? thanks lovely, you’re sweet.
omg perfect.. you leave me without words!
The whole outfit is great, the shoes, blazer and pants, love it!
YOU ARE MY SHOE IDOL!!!!!
xx
Heyyyyyyyyy i have an obsession with shoes but the ones that are awesome are wayyyyyyyyy to expensive, do you have or know of any shoes that are under like $40 i know thats really cheap but allowance doesn’t really get your very far, if so can you please email me at maggiemckay1212@gmail.com
