Keeping it Causal


As hot as the weather has been lately, Im still a cold natured gal. So whenever we go out I have to grab a cardigan. This by far is my favorite cardigan in my closet; I love everything about it, the color, fit and material. Its that perfect throw on and "get the crap outta the house" cardigan. 
This color combo is also one of my favorites, its perfect for summer. 
Please excuse the craziness that is my hair; Nathan wanted to walk, what felt like miles and between the wind, heat and me sweating like a man, I lost what style I had to my hair. 



Outfit Details
Cardigan (Ralph Lauren $25)
Striped Tank (Bargin Hunt $3)
Shorts (J.Crew $20)
Vintage Earrings (Goodwill $2)
Vintage Dooney & Burke (Goodwill $4)
Keds ($45)


Kisses,

Yellow

Well, I'm a working girl again. Wednesday was my first day back at the office from, what felt like a very short maternity leave. I wish I could have stayed home with my sweet Staley, but I think all moms feel this way when they have to go back to work. Am I right?
Since it was my first back in the office in almost 3 months, I wanted to be as comfy as possible! I mean I'm used to wearing nothing but t-shirts and sweats (not office appropriate!) I thought this bright and lose yellow plaid top would be perfect to wear with a pair of black leggings. This is my first yellow anything, I usually don't gravitate to yellow clothing, but I found this at the thrift store and for only $3 I'd be crazy to not give it a try.
 
 
That's what I love about thrifting, I get to try out colors and prints I would have never purchased for myself at any other clothing store.
 
Outfit Details:
Yellow Top (Thrifted, Goodwill)
Leggings (Old Navy)
Purse (Coach)
Loafers (Bluetique)
Glasses (BCBG Max Aria)
 
Happy Friday Friends!

2016 Thrifting Challenge


I'm a lover of thrifting, finding unloved, unwanted treasures to add to my closet. The word has been spreading around the thrifting community to complete a 2016 thrifting challenge. What is this you might ask? Well, its a promise to only purchase second hand clothing for the entire year. Seeing as we're already well into 2016, I'm a little behind. But who can blame me, I just had a baby in February and have been in the mom zone ever since. Now that my maternity leave is coming to an end, I have to get back into the real world.
Going back to work still carrying some baby weight has limited my wardrobe and now being a mother, I'm even more cash savvy then I was before. So I decided to dive into the thrifting challenge and find some new pieces to welcome to my closet. I was able to sneak out of the house a couple weeks ago and went shopping for the first time since before my sweet Staley was born. 

Here are a few things I snagged at my local Goodwill. 
LOFT Sweaters - Loft Cream Sweater
Liz Claiborne Sweaters - Liz Claiborne Striped SweaterCoach Bags - Vintage Coach Willis Bag 9927
Old Navy Shoes - Snake Print Flats

Both sweaters I found are in excellent condition and will be perfect for spring. I also, was beyond excited to find another Vintage Coach Willis bag. I found one while thrifting about a year ago and decided to recently sell it, I may end up hanging on to this one for a while. Before I officially go back to work I'm hitting up Goodwill one last time to see what else I can find. If you're into thrifting as much as I am, try the 2016 thrift challenge. You'll be amazed at what you can find and the money you will save!

Also, I really hope I can get back into the swing of blogging. I really enjoyed it before, but with my pregnancy and becoming a first time mother, it has been the last thing on my mind. I promise to not stay away too long this time! 

Happy Thrifting Friends!

Weekend Essentials

Weekend Trip
____________________________________________________
This weekend, Nathan and I are traveling to Paducah to celebrate a family members birthday. When ever we travel, I like to plan everything out, like what to bring, wear and so on. 
I'm not 100% sure what this weekend entails, but I thought it would be best to pack light and bring nothing but the essentials; money, comfy shoes and maybe some great accessories. I'll also probably bring my "new" Dooney and Bourke cross body bag that I found while thrifting, I think it would be perfect for travel. If you missed my post about my Dooney, check it out here
I'm really hoping for good weather this weekend! Fingers crossed

What are you guys doing this weekend?

Fashion Fridays (For Less!)

Playing dress up is one my favorite parts of the day! Beautiful skirts, jewelry and don't even get me started about BOLD PRINTS and crazy colors! I believe that life is all about standing out and what better way for you to turn a couple heads than with your clothes. I love trying out different and bold patterns, but sometimes that can get pricey! Fashion doesn't always have to be expensive, shop sales and be adventurous with your fashion hunt; one of favorite places to shop is the thrift store! It can save you tones of money and you can find some great pieces, just don't be afraid to look! 

Here's this weeks Fashion Friday (For Less!)
Black Converse Dress Tee: $6 from Target


Leopard Print Midi: $3 from Goodwill


Black Pumps: $15 from Bluetique 


"C" Script necklace: $8 from Bluetique


Gold knot studs: $10 from Calypso



My entire look was less than $45 and I feel great in it! The skirt of course is my favorite part (anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE skirts and animal prints!) I hardly buy anything full price anymore! Everything listed was purchase during a sale or thrifted. 

I would love to see what looks you guys come up with & if you go thrifting I would love to see what you purchased! Remember, be adventurous with your fashion! 
Have a great Mother's Day weekend everyone!

Kisses, 
The Little Lady
