8-2-2026 MY INSPO: best of july & style my haul

best of july

an end-of-month round up of my top ten looks july. lots of patriotic patterns and colors, bursts of colors like bright red, but my favorite were well-tailored minimalistic, fitted fits, in neutral shades. no wonder my three style words were classic, edgy, and minimalistic.

style my haul!

next week is the mix: summer soiree with a bridgerton inspired theme. sib and i already prepped our fits, but one thing we wanted were vintage gloves! a place that always has high-quality vintage gloves is my fave vintage mall antiques and uniques. 
both of us found little white gloves for less than $10 each! here's how i may style my gloves for the mix:
sib's dainty gloves!
potential look for next week's mix:
my old/new gloves paired with a thrifted silver maxi skirt, sib's upcycled halter top, wooden/leather wedges, gold accessories and my vintage silver tiara

we decided to get some steps in the mall even after our successful search, resulting in a purchased mystery jewelry bag (in my defense, i am working on a diy project for my wedding and i'll be needing beads), and we found the most beautiful, fringed silver set. check out how i styled some jewelry i kept from the mystery pile, alongside this gorgeous vintage set:
fringe skirt set from the brand 'renaissance', paired with a giant stack of bangles, one leather and one beaded bracelet i kept from the jewelry set.
already owned: steve madden pumps, h&m clutch purse, red beret.

i could've spent more money, the thrift was full of fabulous finds. but i am on a budget and i am trying to ween off unnecessary consumption, even if it's a pair of prada heels in my size, an olive green staud dress (not photographed, $60 but a size 4), a vintage vogue with irving penn photos, and a funky art print purse:
vintage vogue - $35

sydney love for $29

prada, size 37 $180

faux pearl and gemstone necklace sib wanted me to snap for inspo

these baddies are going on my wishlist. maybe they'll still be around 'til my birthday?
