Thrift Finds, Shoulder Pads, and Mixed All Up

Today, some thrift finds and a pattern mix.  First, the clothes.

The Oscar de la Renta jacket appears black and white in these photos, however, the correct colors are blue and white. The jacket has shoulder pads, but I don't think it's vintage ... no more than 13 years old, probably less.

 I love this Banana Republic light blue shirt. The fit is great, looks like it was rarely worn, and what a steal at $5.00.

This blue paisley skirt is silk, but the fit is not great -- it's a little short and a little too small around the waist. I probably should have passed this up, but I couldn't resist. The price tag says $4.99, but it was reduced to $2.00.

I couldn't resist this blue fabric woven and leather belt. When trying on the Oscar jacket at the thrift shop, I could tell I needed a belt, so I looked around and found this one to try with the jacket. It looked good and fit well enough, so for a $1.00 I brought it home too.

The jacket, blouse, and belt with jeans and red peep toes. A darker wash jean would look better, if I could find a pair that fit!

When I got home with the jacket and skirt, I thought a pattern mix might work, but after seeing the photos, I'm uncertain. There is only one slight difference between the following two photos -- the bottom of the light blue t-shirt is more visible in one photo. What's your opinion of the pattern mix -- a go or a no-go? This time I accessorized with a blue leather belt, an antique blue necklace, and beige/camel peep toe shoes.
