This is Blaze. And Laser. And... Blazer.

Yep, it's blazer day here in the Land of Blog.
Blue velvet blazer - thrifted vintage (no tags)
Necklace - flea market
Butterfly pin - vintage, inherited from gma
Snake pin - thrifted
Tights - Target
Shoes - vintage via eBay (brand is worn off)

Necklace and pin details... normally I avoid anything butterfly related but this vintage enamel pin my grandma gave me is too beautiful not to wear! I found this felt necklace at a flea market with my mom for $2!
 

I love me a good blazer and in honor of their glory, here are some of my favorite past wearing of blazers (click them to go to my flickr if you want the outfit details). Sadly, there are MANY more blazer outfits... I think I have a problem.

    Is it very wrong that I want to see the snake pin sneaking up to eat the butterfly pin?

    I'm loving all those blazer looks. I think flowers and butterflies are a good choice on a cold day, because they remind me of spring.

    I love all these blazers too, especially the red striped one. You do a great job of dressing them down a little so they don't look stuffy.

    Holy smoke! That is one collection of blazers; you might be right about having a problem. But every cloud... you do look fantastic in them. Why do you avoid butterflies?

    I don't quite know why I avoid butterflies... somewhere between my 6th grade love of butterflies and all the bad tramp stamp butterflies I've seen, I just started to dislike them... a lot of stuff they get put on is... corny?

    Hahahaha; tramp stamp. I had to Google that. I'm still cracking up about it(I don't get out much). And you're right about the butterflies. Overexposure=corny.

    What a cool felted necklace! Flea markets are amazing places. You have a fantastic blazer collection. I am very much in love with the red, white and pink(?) one.

    I love all your blazers and let me tell you you are not alone, the bad thing about me is that I don't wear them that often, but you always inspire me to wear mine.

    You're not kidding, you do love the blazer! But they go with everything so it makes sense. That necklace is the best... I did pink polka dots with a blazer too for today!
