thrifty thursday

Thrifty Thursday, a day where you where something you got from a thrift or second-hand store and show pics where you made it your own.  I did it last week, but it is always a fun challenge to mix + remix your bargain buys!I love this sweater.  We fell in love a mere week ago, but it was definitely at first sight.It was so windy today, but we still had fun taking pictures.  Yes, me + the sweater.
You'll have to excuse the faces I was making- The wind was pretty fierce.

Shirt + dark jeans: Target, sweater: thrifted, nude flats: payless

Have you ever thrown on a simple outfit + it turned out to be comfortable and effortlessly chic?

Those are my favorite.

It's a more than simple outfit- but I liked the way the pictures turned out with the overcast day.

I obviously know nothing about photography.

Hope all is well, + it is almost the weekend!

thrifty thursday

I fear that without these snow days, I would not have been 

so excited about blogging this week.

I did go thrifting yesterday between school + work

 (students get half off at citi-thrift on park ave) 

and I was SO thrilled to find a really awesome striped jacket

 and two amazing vintage cardigans (to be seen later).

Introducing.... (drum roll, please)

Thrifty Thursday!

Here's the amazing jacket that I instantly fell in love with.

And the possibilites are endless with him.

The belt is the most expensive part of this outfit, everything else was on sale or given.

Love the bargains.

Yes, if anyone viewing this blog is not from the South, don't be alarmed that this constitutes a snow day.

We are expecting three inches or more this time.

shirt: acquired

leggings: target

boots: shoe dept

belt: new york and company

jacket: thrifted

Studded belts are my thing.

Front porch pictures are super fun, eh?

Taking the pictures outside was more fun, but absolutely freezing.
