Every time I go home, I always make the effort to go thrifting. Usually I am greatly rewarded, but last week this vintage cardigan was my only good find. The sweater conjures up images of fishermen, Ireland, woolly sheep and musty books. So of course I wanted to amp up the sexy librarian vibe of it all with a pencil skirt, argyle tights and brogues. Please excuse me, I have books o file and people to shush.

You amp up the sexy just by being you dear <3
That cardigan. Is the best thing ever! It looks supra comfy.
And you better believe I've shushed a library patron or two before.
I'm such a fan of all your thrifted sweater finds :]
question .. how do you make your thrift selections?
do you buy only what you love or anything that you deem wearable ?
becasue sometimes i leave things behind and then i tihnk oh well it was so cheap i might as well have gotten it .. i couldve worn a few times
looove your cardigan :)

Ha, you're lucky - I almost snatched up that cardigan (if it is the one i saw at st.vincent).

That sweater looks so clean and pretty and stuff for a thrifted white sweater, its a pretty amazing find.
nice cardigan!
I simply love it.
You have perfect collegiate style.
In regards to your comment, I feel so bad if appeared that I was mocking The Smiths. D: I wasn't; I was just joking around about all the cheeky McQueen catch phrases thrown around during his death because they felt way too predictable and ew.
I had to double check that you hadn't stolen my cardigan straight out of my wardrobe. Seriously, I have one just like it.
Cutest librarian I ever saw :)
that sweater is gorgeous! looks perfect for curling up under a blanket with a mug of tea.

Well..who doesn't want to be a wooly fisherman?! It's a great cardi, by the way.

Oh wow I seriously just gave my identical cardigan away to the thrift store. Did you come to Australia very quickly, purchase the cardigan, and leave without saying hi??

Re: this post's title. See you around at any of the Thrush Hermit reunion gigs?
I'll never look at a wool cardigan the same way again.
