Thrifted Looks: Flower Power

As a kid, I gotta admit it…I wasn’t a fan of floral print.  I think I was traumatized because my mom seized the opportunity to splash our curtains, towels, and bedspreads in it.  But, after some counseling I’ve come around (just kidding), and I immediately fell in love with this floral print dress at the Housing Works BUY THE BAG Sale at first sight.  Both the dress and cardigan were about .67 cents each.  I mean, seriously….you could get over a whole lot of childhood fashion faux pas at that price 🙂

 I went back and forth on which nude pumps to be my new addition to the wardrobe…..and settled on the Steve Madden Remmedy…and I think it was a pretty good choice.  The neutral tone can compliment so many things that  you’ll wonder what your go-to shoe was before these.

 

 

I believe if you invest in a great pair of shoes or a nice designer hand bag you’ll save money in the long run with wears-per-use (I know it may not seem like it initially, but trust me) and it can tie any outfit together and give it a luxe “look” no matter how much you paid for it.

Thrifted Looks: Spring is in the air

Spring is in the air….and boy am I glad!  You know what that means….color, color, and MORE COLOR…..not to say that I didn’t hurry the seasons along in my mind and inject some fun into my Winter palette.   But you know, first let me apologize for the random non-English post that went out yesterday and my brief hiatus in writing. I had to work some final bugs out…but now I’m back with a new camera (well, it’s new to me 😉 and a new site, and certainly hope you enjoy them both.

 I’m really feelin’ the yellow these days…and I’m always up for a good thrift….I go so often and find great stuff that I may not be able to fit sometimes, but I pay it forward and give it to friends.  Believe it or not….they do the same!  I rescued this toggle coat from a friends Goodwill bag…and I think it was a pretty good save.

It can be hit or miss some days….but I think street vendors have a nice variety and generally really unique jewelry to offer.

Whether its a skirt or skinny jeans….flipped up or down, these wedges are a versatile way to polish off any outfit. I’m certainly looking forward to more days in the park….what do you look forward to in the Spring?
