looking fly on a dime, dime find of the week

What: Breakups to Makeup. "Accessories for those who love the art of makeup."
Why: I'm not a huge makeup lover, but who can resist affordable fashion and accessories with adorable phrases? Well, that's exactly what Breakups to Makeup offers. I was introduced to the products by my girl Carmen from Lipstick Fashion Mascara and I've been obsessed ever since.

Thrifty Threads 365 is a fashion challenge where I will only thrift shop for an entire year. I’ll show you how it’s easy and wallet friendly to satisfy your style needs with secondhand finds. For full details, check the original post here.
Thrifty Threads 365: raiding my grandmother's jewelry boxA few weeks ago my aunt started cleaning out my grandmother's room {she's currently living in a nursing home for round the clock care}. While my aunt was ready to toss most of the stuff or just donate to the thrift store, I quickly stopped her. See the thing is, my grandmother loved to dress back in the day. And she really loved jewelry. I'm all for donating to the thrift store {obviously!} but I wanted to go through some of her beloved items to see what serious gems she had.
Let me tell you, I'm so glad I did and stopped my aunt before she just bagged everything up. Also, since I'm doing my Thrifty Threads 365 challenge {no new clothes for a year, only thrifted!}, I can use all of the accessories I can get.
Check out just a few of the amazing vintage jewelry I found in my grandmother's closet.
