Denim, check. Floral, check. Ribbed crop sweater, check. Flannel, check. Fishnets, check. Docs, check. Needless to say, these are some of my favorite things. I almost never leave the house without tying a flannel around my waist. It’s the perfect extra layer to have with you at all times during the fall season.

DIY: I’m a huge DIY person. Growing up always thrifting/vintage shopping, you develop a serious case of creativity. I’ve learned from a young age, if I like something, DIY. I’ve been loving some patchwork jackets I’ve been seeing in some fall collections, but why spend crazy amounts of money on something mass produced when you can create something one of a kind for so much less? I often find myself reasoning with this logic when shopping.

I snatched this vintage Levis jacket from Motels Rocks vintage collection, and laid out a ton of rad patches to sort through. After picking which ones I wanted to use, I laid them out on the jacket and simply ironed over each one.. one at a time. So simple! If you’re looking for patches, a great place to check is eBay or ETSY. There’s some awesome vintage and handmade ones on there!
