15 Apr Thrifty Threads – Body Con Skirt

Posted at 11:00h in Thrifty Threads 365 by

Have you ever had an outfit that you planned around an amazing pair of shoes? Well, that’s what I did with my most recent thrifty threads look.

The weather in NYC was a bit mild and I wanted to whip out my Betsey Johnson sequin pumps from Marshall’s. I’m a lover of all things sequins, so these shoes are my babies. I paired them with a few other cheap chic finds for a perfect spring look.

This is a pretty plain body con dress, but the detailing at the waist is what made me thrift it from the Salvation Army.

I kept the top pretty simple and complimented it with an over-sized bib necklace.

Blue and silver sequins, peep toe and pom pom detail. I’m in love!

Breakdown:
Shirt: Target, $10
Skirt: thrifted for $5
Necklace: courtesy of LOFT
Bracelet: courtesy of My Roommates Kloset
Shoes: Betsey Johnson, $80 from Marshall’s
Tights: Strawberry, $5

Week 32 of my Thrifty Threads 365 challenge (a full year where I only buy second-hand clothing) is down. Only 20 more weeks to go!

I swapped out the shirt and shoes for an after work event.

    I love it! I actually have that necklace. Loft is really stepping their accessories game up and I think they’re aiming for a younger audience!

      Thanks Johara. If there was ever a fire in my place (God forbid), I’d have to grab those bad boys 🙂 Sequins make my heart smile! Oh, and hurry back to NYC!

      Thanks! The Housing Works locations in the city are great for accessories and so is the new Goodwill in Greenwich Village.
