polka dots.

blouse: heirloom vintage, trousers: blank, shoes: steve madden, clutch: bijoux, earrings: cache, ring: handmade

i went to a "boogie nights" theme party a few weekends ago and to tell you the truth, i've been obsessed with seventies looks ever since! i have a feeling flared trousers and beautiful blouses are going to be a staple in my fall wardrobe. oh, and i might have disco music on repeat.

are you guys as in love with the seventies as i am? i'm excited to see it making such a huge comeback!
