15 Oct Thrifty Threads – Black & Blue & Sparkly

Last Friday I trekked out of my borough to hear Solange spin at Brooklyn Bowl. I knew I’d be dancing so I needed an outfit that was easy to move in and shoes that were sensible.

Earlier this week I told you about my new beloved sequin vest from Salvation Army. She’s sparkly and fun, so of course she had to make an appearance. With such a loud item, I kept the rest of the look simple: sheer white shirt, black jeans and boots. Though I love the combo of simple black and white, I had to have a little bit of color. I grabbed a cobalt blue clutch and was out the door to dance the night away.

Solange was great and the L train sucks!
