looking-fly-on-a-dime-thrifty-threads-boyfriend-jeansIt's no secret I'm an all-skinny-jeans-everything type of girl. But every now and then we should step out of our comfort zone and try something new. That's been happening a lot lately when it comes to denim. Last month it was a pair of bootcut jeans that fit me like a glove and now I'm absolutely obsessed with these high waisted, relaxed jeans I scored from the Salvation Army for $3.See the full story below and why I almost passed on the jeans!

nfl-fan-style-looking-fly-on-a-dime-steelers-vneck-sweater

It may shock some people to know that I'm a big MMA fan, but it also may {or may not?} shock you to know I've never been to a professional sporting event. Even back in high school when my school's football team was state champs {go Hackensack Comets!}, I never attended a single game.
However, I have started watching football. It all started about two or three years ago when I went to a Super Bowl party and instead of just eating buffalo wings with blue cheese, I actually watched the game. And I liked it. Like, I was really getting into it. I still don't fully understand the rules, but it's entertaining.
And my team of choice has become the Pittsburgh Steelers. Though I have yet to go to a game, when I do make it there, I'll be decked out in style with some threads from the NFL Shop. This look is fashionable but still warm enough for game day!

vintage-seltzer-fab-fit-frugal I'm a recovering soda addict. There, I said it! I know it sounds funny, but I really did have an addiction to soda. A few years ago I could easily finish off a six-pack or two liter in a single day. But now, I rarely touch the stuff. Instead of quitting cold turkey, I made a switch that's much healthier: seltzer water!
I used to think of seltzer as the flavorless old people drink my aunt used to consume, but it's helped curb my soda crazings. And one brand I gravitate toward is Vintage Seltzer.
Keep reading to see why it's an awesome soda substitute, the refreshing mixed drink I make with seltzer water {great for any upcoming holiday parties} and even a discount you can use!

This post brought to you by Payless. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Looking Fly On A Dime.looking-fly-on-a-dime-weekend-casual-chic-outfit
When you think of Payless, you most likely think of shoes, or at least I do. But the brand is so much more than that! Two weeks ago I showed you the affordable, trendy boots they have to offer, but I was pleasantly surprised to find accessories like bags and even funky socks.
See below for the look I created using Payless boots I've had for years, some of the brand's new accessories and even a piece from my grandma's closet.
