thrifty

I'm not much of a shopper, seriously.  Jeremy bought almost all my clothes when we lived in NYC (it helped that he had a huge discount at Bergdorf Goodman and I often got sample size stuff).  I would rather do anything else than go to the mall, especially take a nap.  My side of the closet is small, yet I consider myself fashionable (thanks to 11 years in Manhattan) but since I hate to shop my wardrobe suffers a bit.  So, last month when we were bridesmaid shopping I saw this little number,


I loved it instantly!  The best part is it was marked down to $42.00 at Macy's . The shoes were $15.99 at Ross.  The way I feel in it...priceless!


Then the other day I bought a crazy yellow shirt at the Goodwill for $3.  My sister in law was more than a bit frightened by it, but I had the vision and luckily it was good! Those are my $.50 skinny jeans and my $15.99 shoes again, voila, I heart yellow!


The point of this post, both outfits combined were less than $100 bucks but I feel way better in them than some of my more expensive items, it's great to be thrifty!
