This top is older than me.

Vintage top; Leggins: topshop; Watch: Kenneth Cole; Bangle: from a little store in Oakland; Shoes: Payless Shoe source
Old pics.. Got this vintage top when I raided my grandmother's closet a few years ago.
I got the shoes on sale for $8 a few years ago but it's broken now..
Too bad, I so loved its simple style.
Lola (grandmother) and I around 22 years ago haha
