Unlikely magic

You may have guessed it (hopefully) by now. I like things that don't seemingly go together, but go together. It doesn't make sense, or does it..? It does! Because in the end it's all about the simple rule of balance. God bless balance! A few months ago I found this amazing hammered metallic lame top at the thrift store, the sad aspect was that it had been a dress that someone had hacked apart at the waist. I actually like it better this way, it feels fresher cropped. I love it with high waist denim and fringe. I could almost say the fringe makes it. Almost. (Why almost? Because I am forgetting about the metallic gold Keds...) All unlikely pieces but when combined together make some magic.
Top: Salvation Army, Columbus OH.
Jewelry: Wow. Big assortment of 5 layered pieces one being made by me.
Jacket: Vintage fringe leather jacket from Volunteers of America, Columbus, OH.
Pants: Vintage dead stock (I cut the tags off from the 70's to take this picture!) from Boomerang Vintage Warehouse in KCMO. I get ALL of my vintage high waist pants from the owner Ken, have been these past 10 years...
Shoes: Vintage metallic gold Keds from Ohio Thrift, Columbus, OH.
Clutch: Vintage 1930's black plastic pyrmaid clutch. My favorite, favorite, favorite of all time and wildly versatile.
