Tweed with the Ageless Style Link Up

It was my turn to choose a theme for the month of January, and as I was putting together some outfits to wear one week in November, I thought it was time to wear this skirt again. While I have seen many tweed jackets while thrifting and some really cute ones, I have never brought any home, maybe because I really don’t need another jacket especially one that I might not wear as often as my others. However, I really do like this tweed mini skirt I have had for several years even if I don’t wear it often. I usually wear it about twice each winter (I shared it first in this post and then in a casual outfit here) and thought it would be fun for everyone to share how they wear tweed. I know a couple of the gals might have had to search deep in their closet or might have had to shop for something, but I hope this will encourage you to try something different but that can still be you.

My teen and I sometimes differ on opinion on what I wear, and he can be pretty funny with his comments. He described this outfit as wacko. However, I really like it! I wore it on a weekday for grocery shopping and school pick ups!

I wanted to try layering under my pink “suede” top and chose a thrifted 3/4 sleeve blouse I thrifted. The pink purse and top were both thrifted for $1 each which is pretty amazing. I just need to remember to keep a little cash in my wallet for the occasional foray in the little church community shop downtown. Everything is 1 to 3 dollars! While this week is too cold for this outfit, it would have worked last week with our mild weather.

I renewed my historic site pass the week before these pictures so there will be more blog pictures here! Lots of pretty backdrops for pictures!

I like that this top can be worn alone and layered under: I don’t often layer under my tops, but this fall and winter, I have been having fun layering button downs under sweaters and such. This top will work well with a Halftee in the spring too. I may add thrifted items pretty regularly to my closet, but I restyle them over and over.

I always have to share the back of my boots: I love the detail on them and the fact that the heel is low, the color a rich cognac makes me reach for them over and over. I looked back to when I first shared them (here is a little blast from the past) and it was 2020. I like sharing the links to older posts wearing the same pieces to show you that even though I add and sometimes get rid of things, a lot of what I have in my closet has been around for a while. Most of what I donate is because of fit or because I probably should not have bought in the first place or because my style has changed.
