And The Winner Is !.... / Thrifted Outfit


Mother Nature sure did give us a whirl this week! I traded in my sun-dresses for tights and boots, but since I plan on wearing them into the summer, it wans't a huge change. On Friday I got a sun-burn, and the next day we had the heat on and were bundled under down throws! This outfit was one of the cheapest ones yet! It's funny how we "brag" about how cheap an outfit was in Blogdonia instead of how expensive it was! The thrifted skirt was a dollar, the boots (thrifted) by Bongo, were 6, the Danskin top was 2, and the vest, 3.99 !
I blame Kathryn , the Thrifty School Marm for my necklace from Wal-mart for 3! She has been sporting some cute outfits, and I broke my no-spendy rule in the accessory dept. I really didn't break it much, just a couple necklaces, a dress and jumper. I had to get the turquoise one she wore last week !!! I love to be inspired. O.K. I guess I did break it a lot ! Check out her cool blog ! She is really inspiring !


I couldn't decide how to wear the vest, open, buttoned or not at all.
I wanted to show the wide waist band, but the entire look was better closed vest (I think).




I had on a hat at first, but removed it as well. When I'm having a bad hair day, I immediately grab a hat. I'm trying to get away from that habit, as I applied for a job at the Library. I hope I get it and will need to get used to living hat free ( and keeping it washed and my roots done! ) Thank heaven for the bun !!!




This funky necklace has a ribbon tie in the back, mixing metal with bows.

OH YEAH !!!

A big thanks to everyone who entered. I loved hearing what you love about summer!

My hubs did the drawing out of tons of entries. I will find a better method next time for making it easier to do the actual drawing. I had to count and cut up A lot of entries! I counted and re-counted to make sure it was correct. ( I have perfection issues ;)

I love this outfit, and I don't remember seeing anything like it on any other blog. Love the colors and patterns. And the vest. I don't have one, but I think I should get one.

To answer your comment on my blog about ANTM - I usually can guess who will win, but this time I don't know. Krista is most likely, I suppose? She has done well, but then, so has Raina. I don't think Angelea has a chance. Alexandra maybe, but probably Krista or Raina.
