looking fly on a dime, housing works buy the bag sale

I've always been a fan of bright denim, even before it was trendy. Well, I'm a fan of bright anything, so when I found a pair of purple jeans at the Housing Works Buy the Bag sale, I threw them in the bag.Instead of pairing with a simple black top, I threw on the vintage silk top {also from the Housing Works sale} and a canary yellow Banana Republic cardigan. The colder weather is no excuse to store away the bold colors.I realized my entire outfit, accessories included, was thrifted. The entire look was less than $20.

Since I'm not fully ready to show the world my belly button, I paired the top with a high waist skirt, also from Housing Works, where I walked away with clothing for 35 cents a piece.

I normally don't like skirts this length {it's a few inches shy of being a maxi} but how could I ignore that pattern and built in belted waist. Gorgeous!
