looking-fly-on-a-dime-thrift-shopping-haul-thrift-haul I've been mentioning my awesome, epic thrift shopping trip for the past two weeks and promising a haul video. Well, here she is! You've already seen how I styled a few of the pieces {like yesterday's Old Navy skirt and last week's sheer black maxi from Zara}. But here are the other items I found during my recent trip to the Salvation Army, including a statement making LBD, chunky fall sweaters and vintage gems for less than $10.

Though we tend to layer up during winter, this also continues throughout spring. With chilly mornings and semi-warm afternoons, we still need a few layers to stay warm but also amp up the style factor. This week's Style Equation is all about layering a button down and sweater for an effortless spring look.

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.

Some days it feels like fall {hey sunny and 50 degrees!} and other days we're in a deep freeze. That means deciding what to wear is super tricky. The easiest solution for getting dress on those in between days: layers! Layering can be tricky, because no one wants to look bulky. But all you really need is a few thin layers and a chunky knit you can easily remove if the day warms up.
Of course I had to rock a few of my affordable fashion finds on a fairly mild "winter" day in NYC.

cubicle-chic-how-to-layer-layer-sweaters-layering-made-easyGone are the days of a lightweight coat and here are the days of layer upon layer {and maybe a third layer!}. While layering can be a fun way to mix up your outfits, you want to avoid adding bulk and looking like the Michelin Man. This week I’ll show you affordable sweaters that will keep you warm without adding bulk. I’ll give you a little hint: it’s all about the choice of fabric. See the three fall and winter sweaters that are warm, sleek and stylish. Trust us, you won't look all big and bulky under your coat.
