Do I like this skirt? Oui!

Bonjour! Parlez vous Francais? Oui, oui.

Red Patterned Skirt: I found this skirt at Goodwill last Saturday (1st Saturday of the month = 50% off). It was originally $4.29, but I got it for $2.15! Now check this out - I was immedialty drawn to the pattern when I saw it on the rack, but almost put it back when I saw the size, 3 sizes too big! Do NOT trust sizes when thrifting! If you like the piece, take a chance and try it on, it may pay off! Loving this skirt for summer remixing.

INSPIRATION MONDAY (oops Thursday)
I'm about 4 days behind on this outfit. It is an interpretation of an outfit worn by Alexa Chung (pictured on the left), which was prompted by the gals over @ Two Birds. They just started a fun participation link-up called "Inspiration Monday". They post an image of an outfit and then other bloggers are encouraged to put together their own outfit using the image as inspiration. Pretty fun, right? They already posted next week's image. If you want to participate, check it out!

I think it is such a cool idea, because it forces you to look at your clothes in a totally different way. I NEVER would have thought to put this graphic tee with this skirt, but I really like the way it turned out! I think next week will be a bit of a challenge, but hopefully I can come up with something...



It was really windy during this photo shoot!

I got that purse for free at DSW on Black Friday the year before last. Well, free with a $40 purchase.



I had a short 1/2 hour last night to check out Vintage Vogue by GW. Click here to read yesterday's post incase you missed my blab-fest about this place.

So far I have to give this place two thumbs up. It is basically full of what I like to call "great finds". All those items you get super excited to find while thrifting are basically all pulled together in one location! I did a quick spot check for pricing and tops range anywhere from 4.99-10.99. Not too shabby. Plus, I found out that they steam the clothes before selling them, so they are in better condition than your regular Goodwill (they don't stink). Wrinkled dollars in mind I asked an associate about special sales. Good news, they have a 50% off rack that is rotated out every 4 weeks. Once an item has been in the store for 4 weeks it is marked 1/2 off.

Oui!
