You know what, my friends? I’m so, so happy that some 70s trends are back in style. Case in point: the bell sleeve trend. I’ve been scooping it up left and right, and I just can’t seem to get enough of it!

When I spotted this Free People tunic at My Kind of Lovely, I knew it had to be mine. I’m pretty sure they posted a photo of this dress to their Instagram account, and I ended up buying it within 10 minutes of the photo going live. I sized up from my normal Free People size so that I can wear it as a dress, but I really love it tucked in and worn as a top. I think I got about a million compliments on this when I wore it out and about!

Also, I’m so stoked to finally be able to wear these Vince Camuto boots! I scooped them up during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and they’ve been collecting dust since August, but it’s finally chilly enough to rock these bad boys. I’m super stoked to wear these out and about!
