Thrifts!!

Hello!
I am on my way to class, but this past weekend I went shopping and was able to get some terrific things at Saver's! I found my new favorite polyester dress!!! And a brooch to put on my bonnets, plus some snazzy pieces for a song at the Art Festival, like bags of clip-on earrings that I can also use for hats! I am busy with midterms, knitting custom hats for my fellow employees, and work!

An entirely thrifted outfit (save fore the hairclip, which I got at Claire's)

The shoes and the bag I got at work, and the dress was like $7 at Saver's!!!

I wish I could have kept these lovelies, but they didn't fit, so I'm selling them!

My never-been used, American Tourister grape-colored makeup case that has a pretty floral lining and it came with keys so I can lock it up! $15 at Saver's!!! I also got the pretty frame to use near my bonnets at work!

Summer Is Quickly Escaping Me...

I feel very irregular with posting lately! I have been busy reading the vampire books, soaking up the fragments of summer at the beach, working, and spending time with Lila and Billy (separately,of course!). I am gearing up for a long-awaited visit from Betsy with Baby O, which I am very excited about! Baby O and I have lots of singing, walks, and cuddling to catch up on! Next week, I start school, which I am excited about, its my last semester!!!! I will hopefully stay on top of this project, and since I like to dress up everyday for school, it shouldn't be that hard. I am bummed that its starting to get darker earlier, and that the temperature is dropping. I don't mind fall though, its the freezing winters I hate, and all that damn snow! Today I scored a blue Gucci wallet at work for dirt cheap. It's not brand-new, but I like my things a touch worn anyways, it adds character! Yesterday Billy and I ate awful Chinese food for dinner, and then we rented Polanski's Chinatown from the library, which is one of my favorites. I am always inspired by Faye Dunaway's precision makeup, her delicate curls, and her array of unique hats!


I especially love that hat!



My Plaid Summer Saver...
I am digging plaid over white, and lace-up oxfords to go with everything! I found these guys at Savers, and I really love the pointed toes...
