Street Style Stolen

Hello hello! Welcome to my first attempt at stealing a Street Style look! When searching for street style images to recreate I was keeping an eye out for outfits made up of basic. simple pieces that were just put together in an interesting way. Obviously some street style outfits are near-impossible to emulate without having the exact item of clothing, so I was looking for something easy to start off with (I’ll push the boundaries a bit later I promise!).


This image is from Pinterest and it’s perfect! The sexy/athletic vibe is a little out of my comfort zone but I was up for the challenge! Tracking down a light blue over sized shirt was ridiculously easy. Seriously. Walk into any op shop anywhere and you’ll find a blue men’s work shirt. I got this one for $3 from Vinnies. A red skirt is also pretty easy to find, I already have three in my wardrobe to choose from (all op shopped of course) so I went with my leather one to keep in line with the photo.


TA DA!!



I absolutely loath flat caps, on anyone and everyone, even this gorgeous girl. They are ridiculous and I refuse to buy one just for the sake of this post. Luckily I found this red baseball cap at the new Good Sammies in Myaree, it's pretty much as close to a Yankees cap as I could hope to find, so was thrilled. 



So there you have it, my first street style look stolen and made up entirely of op shopped goodies and things I already had in my wardrobe. What do you think?


Shirt: Vinnies North Perth $3
Skirt: Op Shop $10
Heels: Salvos in Osborne Park $8
Cap: Good Sammies Myaree $2
Sunglasses: Ray Ban
Jewellery: all assorted gifts

  2. Brilliant! What a fab idea, and really suits you! I actually like your version better, the matchy-matchy leather of her hat is a bit much. Wish we could find her shoes in an opshop though ;)

    1. Thanks Claire! I really like this outfit, it was fun doing something a little different to my usual style. I hardly ever find shoes in op shops and finding a pair that amazing would be impossible! (one can dream though) xx H
