Last week was all about how to rock a bodycon dress from day to night, but for this week's Thrifty Threads, I wanted a look that was comfortable and chic for day to night,
When it comes to versatility, I'm really feeling jumpsuits. So I knew I had to whip out my Uniqlo jumper I scored from the Salvation Army. I previously wore this $7 jumpsuit in the dead of winter, but now I stripped down a few layers for a spring look.

Looking Fly on a Dime: Top Brands for Affordable, Quality Denim
Though I'm usually a dress kinda girl {did you see my last Thrifty Threads bodycon dress post!?}, I also love a good skinny jean. They're super comfortable and easily dress up or down.
I've thrifted a few pairs of great jeans, but I always have an issue with finding quality denim that fits. I'm petite {only 5'2"} but I've got a little booty and some thighs, so avoiding the dreaded waist gap is an issue. Oh, and you know when you've been rocking a pair of jeans for too long and they get the dreaded crotch rip? I've even worn designer denim that rip after too much wear.
But luckily, after years of being a skinny jean connoisseur {more than 20 pairs!}, I've narrowed down my top 3 brands for affordable, quality denim. These won't set you back a ton and there's no crotch rip!

Thrifty Threads 365: Bodycon Dress from Day to Night
Let me start off by saying I'm not the biggest fan of bodycon dresses. They just feel too va-va-voom for me, but I found a printed H&M bodycon dress I couldn't resist. The simple black and white print and one shoulder batwing sleeve was enough to make me snatch it up when I found it at Housing Works Buy the Bag.
At less than $1, I figured it couldn't turn to give this style a try and I'm so glad I did. Though bodycon dresses can feel a bit sexy, they're easy to take from day to night.
