27 Jul Thrifty Threads: Little Bo Peep
One of the many, many great things about thrift shopping is you can try out new trends or looks you would normally stray away from. It makes you a bit more adventurous because you're not really investing in a style. If you try it and don't like it, no big deal. And that's exactly what I did earlier this year when I bought a pair of lace shorts while thrift shopping in San Francisco at Buffalo Exchange.
I love anything with lace, so I snatched the shorts up quickly. I posted a photo on Facebook of my new thrift store score and someone asked, "so how are you going to wear them?" That's when I asked myself, oh shoot, how am I going to wear them! I feared the lace bottoms would look a bit childish, kinda Little Bo Peep-ish.But when I'm faced with a tricky garment, my motto is: keep it simple and let the accessories do the work. So that's what I did.
