Vintage apparel might be designs from yesteryears but it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s old and outdated. Use appropriately, like Megan in this case with her cheap finds of these various accessories, and you are neither weighed down nor tacky. Instead, you accent a simple look with so much more class and flavor!

hey streetspotted! now that the weather is transitioning a bit, i need some advice on what to wear. it is pretty cold when i walk to class in the morning, but the classrooms are usually really warm. any suggestions for how to look fashionable, but not die of frostbite on the walk to class or heatstroke once i make it to class?
