For some reason I felt like wearing a dress...which is so rare you may not see it on the blog again...
This dress was an amazing find. It's cashmere, so you can imagine my surprise when I spotted it at the thrift store for like $3! It's in perfect shape and is probably the most comfortable item in my closet. I usually pair it with denim, but today felt like a leggings day, so I went with it. Now, my mama always had a rule when I was growing up that dresses should be no longer than your finger tips...just kidding...they should be longer than your finger tips.
This dress just barely passes mama's test...
scarf: swap party
belt: thrifted
cashmere dress: thrifted
leggings: target $5
boot socks: target
boots: thrifted...sick of seeing them yet?
And now for your crafty delight, I present a bracelet I made myself:
Kidding again. It's just a thrifted skinny belt wrapped around my wrist and buckled to look like a cuff bracelet. I did not inherit my mama's crafty gene. She only passed on her resourceful gene. She also did not pass on her good-decision-making-gene. Honestly, I couldn't decide which accessory to wear with the dress...maybe you can give your opinion! I loved the above belt bracelet, but I wanted to wear this one too...
excuse the dry hands...it's that time of year.
It's from Forever 21 and I really love it...it was cheap too! I really love the chevron pattern, and it was a fun pop of color that tied in with the yellow belt. Decisions. Decisions.
Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful Thursday friends!
And if you haven't called your mama yet...do it!
