old lady accessories

I was really happy with how well this outfit came out! I hardly ever wear this pencil skirt, but combined with the cropped sleeve jacket, gloves, and tiny pillbox handbag it makes the perfect old lady style classic outfit. And I love this coat so much- it’s vintage  and locally made! I got it for free years ago and was very pleased to later find out that it was made by the now-defunct Cincinnati brand, Sincerely Jenny.

I really love the detail on this shirt too.
