Vintage Goodness in a Crisp White Shirt and Denim

Good morning!!

Well, is it any surprise that there is some kind of denim in my outfit, nor is it that its mostly vintage? Nope I don't think it is! My essentials, denim cutoff shorts and a crisp white shirt (which no one should ever be without in their wardrobe)!  I have been wearing more vintage then ever lately and I can't get enough, and why would I?  It's really just too good!  Worn in gems that you won't be able to find another exactly like…. its really pretty awesome! With this said I am getting ready to relaunch my blog and vintage store (here) within the next couple of weeks and I am SO excited!  I will be updating the store with new vintage arrivals weekly, so keep your eyes peeled on @shop_fashionorfamine on Instagram! These vintage gems tend to go fast and there is minimal quantity!  Also feel free to contact me anytime if there is something specific you're looking for!

Have a righteous day!

Sunbathing in Vintage Leather

While this is really not practical at all, to sunbathe in leather (although it was actually quite awesome) I could wear this vintage leather jacket with every possible outfit combination.  To be honest I love the impractical and spontaneous and this outfit was just that!  More vintage coming to the store soon and don't forget to follow shop_fashionorfamine on Instagram for new arrivals and everythang vintage and more!!!

Have a super rad week!

Vintage Levi's Denim Jacket for the Win

I will keep it short and sweet as I usually do!  There's really not a lot of explaining that can go into a vintage Levi's denim jacket.  I'd like to think in my world it speaks for itself, in all its awesomeness!!  It's a staple, it's an essential, dress it up, dress it down, tie it around your waist….WHO knows what! I wear mine (I actually have 3 currently) all the time and I wear it most of the time with denim.  Even if it is or isn't on a trend, I really love the way denim on denim works together with different colors and textures, its always unexpected and eclectic and I love it.

Oh and one last thing don't find yourself without a vintage denim jacket this season or any season for that matter! Just don't do it, there will be a few jackets coming to Fashion or Famine's Vintage store very very soon! wink, wink! SO don't miss out!  There will be some other gems too!

Have a killer day!

A Jumpsuit is Always Right

Good morning to you!!  It's been a little while since I've posted….so its good to get this rad little sucker of a jumpsuit up on here!!

Ok, I have a major thing for a jumpsuit, and I am always looking for new jumpsuits!!  There is just certain things I am always shopping for…awesome, standout, and totally unpractical pieces and then my solids, jeans, crew neck sweatshirts, vintage Levi's shorts, fur, leather, and always a jumpsuit!!  Talk about an easy way to dress!  Throw it on with a pair of heels and your done!! It's the most minimalistic style of dressing and I love it!! So needless to say I saw this jumpsuit from Citizens of Humanity and it was a done deal.  I love the denim chambray light wash,  button up front, and most of all long sleeve with a super baggy elongated leg. There you have it, a good jumpsuit is a must!

Have a good day!!

Lace Up Leather and Fur

GOOD morning!!

So today's post is really simple, this is hands down my favorite combination!  Fur and leather are a recipe for an all around great concoction!  I am always drawn to fur, but this one with its rich emerald color kills it for me, and as impractical as one would think with the color its been my main cold weather staple in L.A.!  The leather pants….don't even get me started about how much these suckers are my all time favorite leather pants! The slouchy fit and lace up sides are just too too darn good!

Have a great day!!!

Florida and Some Patches

Although it is now December (which is absolutely shocking to me how fast time fly's) !!!  In L.A. only til recently its starting to get a little cold, so I couldn't help but to post a summer crop tee (literally cut right before these pictures were taken) and my patch jeans.  I didn't think buying a pair of jeans covered in patches would be in constant rotation in my wardrobe, but they most definitely are!!  I wear these jeans all the time and I'm finding more and more that sometimes the purchases for myself that are nowhere practical, I truly get the most wear out of them!!  So take a chance!! Hopefully not just on jeans with patches!!

Have a great day!!!

Nothing like a men's tuxedo shirt turned into a dress!

 You would never deny that a white shirt is an essential, but an arsenal of good white shirts may be essential as well!  You can never ever go wrong with a white shirt!   So many options, so many ways to wear it.  I found this tuxedo version when vintage shopping recently and I thought it would be the perfect dress/shirt/layering piece...you name it!  Obviously it can be worn many ways, half way unbuttoned with leather pants, or shorts, who knows maybe with a sequin mini!  Either way its a new go to for my wardrobe!!  Nothing like a men's tuxedo shirt turned dress!

Have a super awesome day!

Nothing wrong with a little snakeskin

Good Morning!!!!

I love to constantly be on the look out for really good pieces that I know I will get a ton of wear out of, jumpsuits, shorts, crew necks, etc.  However, the thing I actually look for and will invest more money is the pieces I really don't need and that are more of a statement! Chances are I will wear the heck out of it!!  This snakeskin skirt is one of those pieces!  It's by no means an everyday piece, but its a definite go to and can be worn so many different ways!  You just can't beat a little multi colored snakeskin and a huge slit!!

Have an awesome day!!!!

Keep those sequins coming!

I basically live in these Frame denim and ever since I laid eyes on this vintage sequin blazer, it too, has fell victim to my constant wearing!!  I think its perfect with nothing else under it, but it's also quite nice with a good ol' vintage tee and cutoffs as well!  I mean when are sequins ever wrong?  They are perfect year round and with almost everything!!

Also as you know, I am always on the hunt for vintage and I'm always finding all sorts of vintage gems!!  I would love to hear feedback of anything you're looking for?  If you are ever interested in any of my vintage pieces, please don't hesitate to email me or you can follow me on Instagram at christa_jayne for vintage pieces I am selling as well!!

Have an awesome day!!

Crop-tastic!

Hello and good morning!!

I realize that its Fall, and as much as I'm excited for all things Fall, it is still very very hot in L.A. right now!!  I am not complaining one bit....I LOVE summer!!  So with that said crop's are still going strong in my wardrobe and I think they will for awhile, I love the idea of pairing a crop with a midi skirt or long trousers for Fall, but for right now, why not pair it with my all time favorite wardrobe stable... vintage Levi's denim shorts!

Have a super spectacular day!!
