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. To say that it's been cold would be a serious understatement. With temperatures below zero and snow that never seems to cease, the last thing on my mind was wearing something cute or teetering around in heels, but...I found an outfit that was fashionable and functional.
My cold days aren't complete without my Ellen Tracy cape {get it
here in black} I scored from Loehmann's two years ago. Seriously, investing in outerwear is a must, especially if you live in a colder climate.
Every other garment I rocked was straight from my favorite thrift stores: vintage Balenciaga booties {less than $1 from
Housing Works Buy the Bag}, purse, vintage blouse, beaded jacket and Uniqlo jumpsuit from the
Salvation Army. They all came together for a look that combined fashion and function.
It's cold in New York. Let me add it's cold and there's snow on the ground. Though we dodged a blizzard this week, it's still pretty frigid out. A few weeks ago I told you about the importance of a statement winter coat and it's the only garment you need to buy this season.Well, I'll add winter accessories to the list as well. These are the add-ons that will keep you warm and chic! Oh, and since my Thrifty Threads 365 challenge is over, I finally went shopping and bought my first brand new item in a year!
