Last weekend was crazy hot on the east coast so I wanted a look that was casual (i.e. nothing clingy) but of course, still cute.I don't think I've ever worn cargo pants (I'm more of a skinny jeans kinda gal), but I was determined to work them in my wardrobe somehow. Pairing the cargos with a feminine top kept the outfit from being a little too rugged. I rolled the hem up and threw on some platform pumps to complete the look. It's definitely something different for me...
I've never been completely comfortable wearing shorts. I'm all for skirts and dresses but for some reason I think shorts make my legs look, well, short...
The weather in NYC is finally heating up and recently I put together this look using some of my cheap, chic finds.Dress, $12: from a store in Jersey and I've had it for four years now. That's a pretty awesome cost per wear ratio. Sandals, $8: Strawberry Shades, $10: Nine West Bag, $2: vintage DKNY bag from a thrift store in Philly. This is one of the first pieces I ever thrifted, so it has a special place in my cheap little heart.I love the spring and summer months because you...
Last weekend I attended a concert in tribute to jazz great Roy Ayers. Of course I turned to my thrift store finds (and other cheap, chic picks) for a dressy, yet casual look.Blazer: Banana Republic (thrifted) Top: no label (thrifted) Jeans: Strawberry (about $15) Heels: Payless (about $20) Earrings: Forever 21 (about $4) Necklace: don't remember (about $5)...
Look at my pretty dress!!! Sorry for the exclamation marks but I absolutely adore my new-to-me dress and it only cost a little more than a dollar from my trusty Goodwill Outlet. I didn't notice this gem until I saw a fellow shopper admiring it. But I guess she didn't like it too much because she put the skirt back in the bin. I loved the print so I scurried over to snatch it up. However, I didn't like the skirt itself, it was floor length and fishtail....
