    Thrifting Fall Fashion Trends

    Everything old really is new again! Like these thrifted clothes that probably thought they’d never be cool again but I managed to smash them together to recreate a big trend this fall: monochromatic dressing! You might remember me talking about it in my 3 Fall  Fashion Trends post.

    While most of us probably participate in this trend daily without realizing it in our head-to-toe black ensembles, I thought it was fun to take some creative liberty and pair together vintage clothes that are all a bright color. Plus you can never go wrong with some plaid and corduroy in the fall!

    What color would you dare to wear all over?

  • A Thrift Exchange with Confessions of a Refashionista

    A Thrift Exchange

    What happens when two thrifters shop for one another and exchange packages in the mail? You get an epic thrift exchange!

    Today I’m excited to share a thrift exchange with Sheri from Confessions of a Refashionista. Sheri is a clothing wizard who takes secondhand garments and turns them into brand new pieces! Her blog is full of all kind of transformations, tutorials, and sustainable shopping info.

    But first watch my unboxing to see what custom creations she sent me and then scroll down to view the outfit I put together from all the items. And when you’re done, don’t forget to stop by Sheri’s channel to look at what I sent her!

    Sheri sent so many fun items but this striped dress was begging to be worn first, since I’m still in the Halloween spirit and all.

    I styled this dress with pink tights to match the tiny pink & green abstract bows that cover it. Then I punk’d it up with a moto jacket, fake Doc Martens, a spooky Goosebumps ring, and DIY pom-pom earrings. It might be weird to say but I felt like a sexy Beetlejuice! What do you think?

  • 3 Ways To Wear a Blanket Scarf This Fall

    The Blanket Scarf

    Wearing a blanket scarf is as easy as 1-2-3!  I know this piece of fabric wrapped around your neck can seem intimidating but I promise it’s not as difficult as it looks and you’ll soon grow to love the warmth and functionality of a blanket scarf!

    To help you out, I styled a blanket scarf 3 different ways to give you plenty of inspiration. Be sure to let me know in the comments which one is your favorite!

    Every girl should be able to recreate this look in their closet. All you need is a plain top, classic denim jacket, colored jeggings (like mine from Maurices!), and booties. Wrapping a plaid blanket scarf around your neck really makes this look something special and so quintessentially fall!

    👗 WHAT I’M WEARING 💄
    Maurices jeggings and blanket scarf, $34 w/ employee discount (shop exact jeggings, shop similar scarf) | Thrifted denim jacket and tee, $7 total (shop similar jacket, shop similar tee) | Outlet store booties, $15 (shop similar booties)

    This outfit is not for the faint of color! I draped the scarf over my shoulders to add a pattern to what was already a very bright ensemble. The duo formerly of What Not To Wear would likely approve of my use of “color, pattern, texture, and shine.”

    👗 WHAT I’M WEARING 💄
    Thrifted dress, $5 bag sale (shop similar dress) | Old Walmart glitter flats/tights, $15 total (shop similar shoes, shop similar tights) | Gifted necklace from Redbird Vintage (shop similar necklace) | Maurices blanket scarf, $14 (shop similar scarf)

    My favorite outfit of all three is this one with a witty graphic tee, dark brown corduroy skirt, and platform shoes. I love the throwback vibes and the scarf casually hung around my neck creates an extra layer of fun to it!

    👗 WHAT I’M WEARING 💄
    Thrifted tee/skirt/shoes, $10 total (shop similar tee, shop similar skirt, shop similar shoes) | Maurices blanket scarf, $14 w/ employee discount (shop similar scarf)

  • 3 Fall Fashion Trends You Probably Already Have in Your Closet

    Fall Trends I’m Excited About

    Between NYFW and starting my new job at Maurices, it’s safe to say I have the itch to start trying out some of falls biggest fashion trends. Here are 3 that I’m looking to most and how I’ve worn them in the past!

    Animal Print

    I’m wild for leopard print but am willing to explore some other cool creatures this season like zebra or tiger.

    Considering this trend isn’t for everyone, try adding it to your outfits in small doses like with your accessories. Wear an animal print belt to accent an LBD, or even tie a small silk scarf to your purse handle.

    Monochromatic Dressing

    Dressing in one color sounds boring in theory but is actually really interesting and can take a lot of creativity to pull off just right!

    It’s up to you to decide how matchy-matchy you want to go. A simple top and bottom might suffice or you can go all out dressing monochromatic from head (a hat & lipstick) to toe (shoes)!

    The 1980s

    Do I even need to explain why I’m excited for this trend? I’ve always been a big fan of the ’80s (as documented on this blog) and have been stoked by it’s arrival in mainstream fashion this year.

    Don’t get stuck thinking you have to wear shoulder pads with everything. You have an entire decade to choose from! Try dressing up your leggings (you probably already have a bunch of pairs for lounging, right?) or incorporate a vintage band tee into your closet.
