the re-created outfit & wine as a prop

top-vintage (thrifted); skirt-H&M; sandals-Nine West; necklace-H&M

I wore this pretty much identical outfit (with diff shoes) a couple of weeks ago, but didn't have time to take a picture of it. So, naturally, last Friday night, I decided to re-create the look for a friend's Birthday party; it's quickly become a favorite :) I just love the colors and any excuse to wear that necklace is good enough for me!

anddd, the wine; it wasn't really a prop and we all know that ;) It was delicious and I just didn't wanna put it down!

one more reason why thrifting is awesome

Before I left for my trip, I took a brief stop at a local thrift store, not even looking for anything in particular. As usual, I gave the racks a quick run through and headed on for the purse rack. There I found this pretty number! It's been very useful as a cross-body and it's neutral color is easy to work with; it's $7 price tag was also a nice touch :)

Just goes to show that when it comes to thrift shopping, you never know what you might find, so you just need to go at it with an open mind (and about $10!)

the midi

In the spirit of full disclosure, I attempted to pair this skirt with flats, but it just looked kinda frumpy. I'd love to hear any tips you may have about wearing midi's (btw, weird name,right?!) with something other than 4 inch heels!
