ALSO… there is nothing I hate more than walking up to a group of people at a networking event and introducing myself 🫣 any tips?

Ok “Big Secondhand Outfit Energy” is the best thing I’ve read in awhile. Hahahaha! I loveeeeee the micro bag belt and took a screenshot and added to my mega inspo clothes note (IYKYK).

over the summer I was really into this old 2013 Marni jacket I bought off TRR in 2020, I like it on top of an otherwise could-be-menswear look. The oversized look was never my cup of tea, I think I just prefer my jackets a little more feminine in general since the last thing I bought on ebay was a jacket with three-quarter sleeves and embroidery

(not necessarily hourglassy but definitely not the boxy AND shoulderpadded AND oversized look that's been a thing in fashion week street style photographs since I'm going to say, 2018 or so)

That Marni jacket sounds like an amazing find Lily! Agree, I've been into the less oversized silhos lately - the pendulum always swings back for me :)

I really enjoy the mental deep dive - that’s what I find so interesting and fun about fashion. Btw I have that Source Unknown blazer in tan and charcoal. The shape is very linebackery, meaning the shoulder pads are SHOULDER PADS. 😉

Oh, that is so helpful! to know Francine! I love a strong shoulder, but my body shape doesn't always agree with me on that :)

If you are interested in the charcoal one let me know. I don’t think I’ve ever worn it!

Thank you! I might check back in when my clothing budget re-ups :)

I'm so thankful for resale apps because they make secondhand shopping so easy! I often don't have the patience to sift through a massive thrift shop, so I love that I can easily search and filter apps for what I want. Also love these blazers! I've also been drawn to a more fitted silhouette lately after so many years of oversized everything.

Same Maria - I love being able to favorite and filter secondhand on an app. If only I had the patience for thrifting in store!

Tina; I adore the outfit inspiration you are cultivating. Admittedly my wardrobe is more casual but I was also drawn to the micro bag cinching the blazer from Another Nue. I’m glad I’m not the only one who found their accounts instantly inspirational!

Kelly, I am so excited about Another Nue! You've introduced me to my new favorite instagram account. I loved living vicariously through you on your trip to Denmark and have so many things bookmarked thanks to you :)
