Feminine Blazer

     As you can tell by now-I love blazers! The boots, bag, and blazer are all secondhand. Something about this outfit feels slightly off, but I like how it turned out. I love creating looks around items that I bought used. I can feel like a million bucks in something that cost me only a few dollars. I've been thinking about starting a mini series about some of my thrifting strategies. What do you think?

     I also ask that if you've been reading my blog, please consider following! The more readers I know I have, the more excited I am to continue blogging. You guys are my motivation! :)

     I've also decided to participate in Kendi's 30 for 30 challenge! If you don't know what it is, be sure to check her out here: http://kendieveryday.blogspot.com/

    What feels off to you? The outfit is totally cute and I am enjoying your blog. I went back and read from post one and bookmarked you too! Thanks for sharing yourself and your talent and interest in thrifting. I shop almost exclusively at thrift stores and a little Ross/Marshalls/TJMaxx thrown in plus some other great deals. It's talent and a creative outlet plus being a good steward to look good with second-hand clothes! You've got the touch!

    I have noticed you have a lot of china pieces with roses on them. You need to check out shopgoodwill.com the Orlando store has a cute wall pocket just like the other pieces you have. Love all you do and keep it up and yes I would love to hear your strategies.

    Susan-Very cute wall pocket! I looked it up at it would match my collection to a T! :)
    Alyssa-I'm actually nervous about this challenge, just because of the no shopping part. I love shopping! :)
