I feel like I spent most of my summer wearing a t-shirt dress, leggings, and Toms. Since I babysat three days a week for most of July and some of June and August, that was my wardrobe. Playing with three kids who treat me like a jungle gym requires clothing that stretches easily and doesn’t [...]
I’m SO excited for fall weather. It’ll be nice when I don’t have to remove layers when I go outside (because a normal indoor temperature is cold to me). I’m noticing a trend amongst the outfits I’ve been pinning lately (check it out here). They’re all pretty classic looks–simple pieces with timeless shapes and patterns, [...]
I’m not tall. 5’3″, that’s me. I love this skirt, but I was concerned that the midi length would’t be flattering on me. After wearing it, I’m happy to say that I like the length. It’s just short enough, hitting right below the knee rather than mid-calf. A few other things that I think make [...]
Before you scroll down to see my outfit pictures… help me out a bit by answering this question. I’m starting a new series on this blog where each month I’ll feature a different consignment, thrift, or resale store around the country. What I need to know is what parts of the country you’d like me [...]
I did a DIY peter Pan collar not too long ago, but here’s a more glitzy one. I used to always request a calendar for Christmas. I still think they make great gifts. Here are some cute ones on Etsy. 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Or how about a calendar you can print our [...]
Go enter my GIVEAWAY! I got these red tights for 50¢ (they’re Hue, which are usually $10-$15 a pair). I almost didn’t get them because the bright color kind of intimidated me and I didn’t know how I would wear them. I figured it’s only 50¢ though, so who cares if I never use them. [...]
I was working in the store (Your Stuff Consignment Boutique) this weekend, and I noticed how much cute stuff is there! So I grabbed my phone and snapped some pictures. Have you found any really great things at your local consignment store(s) lately? (P.S. Have you entered my GIVEAWAY yet?)
A beautiful magazine mostly focusing on unique and beautiful interior design. It also has some DIYs, recipes, cool products, etc. AND it’s totally free, once a month, online. Tips for successful thrift shopping (great for consignment shopping, too). I’ve read a lot of similar articles, and this probably most closely fits with my methodology. Sweaters [...]
image of Dragon’s Tooth, Va via maggarama on Instagram (follow me!) Relax a minute at calm.com. You can even change the location to your liking. Still not happy? How about a compliment…or three? A book about being a successful blogger. Watch the video! It’s cool. A neat tulip skirt tutorial. I did a post on how [...]
Weekend links are late this week…sorry. But it’s still the weekend, right? image via Try Real Simple’s Finish the Look fashion game. I was on a roll at first, but it got a little tricker in subsequent rounds. Or maybe it just got more subjective? So remember that poll I posted to help me choose [...]
