Horrible Blogger and Thrift Hits

I've been up to no good lately, but I have quite a bit of disposable income via Christmas and good grade bonuses (long story). This disposable income is being spent on a) my trip to Ohio next week b) stuff to fix up the 60s schwinn bike my boyfriend got me for christmas (!!) and c) doing a bit of clothing shopping.

Today I stopped by goodwill to drop off a garbage bag full of unloved shoes from the back of my closet and was happily surprised when I found this sweet jewelry (below), two cardigans, a cordoroy dress that needs some hemming, and a Dior sweater. The Dior sweater was originally for my boyfriend, but I tried it on and realized it fit me better :).





I adoreeeeee the cameo bracelet and the gold/silver flower necklace, though I don't feel the flower necklace was well captured in this scan. I'm probably going to break up the pin up girl bracelets when I figure out something to do with them, but as of yet I have no ideas.


Also, I apologize that I've been an absolutely terrible blogger as of late, huff. I did have finals last week, which were very very important (and I got 5 As and 1 B!). This week, though, I haven't really been up to too much, I've just been anti-computer.

Today's Outfit


Let's see, today I'm sporting my fake leather Cathy Jean cowboy boots, black leggings, denim mini dress from goodwill, and a lacey (which you can't see) shirt from forever 21.

Oh, I try to keep the looks on my face as interesting as possible, heh.

Speaking of my denim dress though, has anyone else been having a terrible time at thrift stores lately? I guess I'm just so in love with summer clothes and mini dresses that it's breaking my heart to see them replaced with pants that never fit right and jackets that are either too big or pilling up all over. Bring the summer back!

ps. I don't want to make this into a fashion blog (there are so many great ones out there), so sorry that fashion is the only thing on my brain the last few days.




update: I put this dress up on etsy last night. It's here if you'd like to see it.
