Day 2

     For this outfit I combined four pieces which haven't been worn, so I think I am doing pretty good! The blazer and white shirt were thrifted this Sunday, the handbag was thrifted a few weeks ago and I haven't worn it yet, and the necklace was bought about six years ago in Colorado. I like it, but always have a hard time pairing it with clothes I like. Lately I've been wearing only gold tone jewelry and have been shying away from colors. I wanted something to make the outfit seem more casual since this blazer is in a dressier fabric.

    I also found this interesting article about Goodwill and about why more middle class shoppers are deciding to purchase secondhand. It's worth a few minutes :) Click here.

    That blazer looks so comfy and playful since it's not the typical black! What color is it? ?Maroon? Very cute.
