Disclaimer: The good people at Savers Thrift Stores provided me with a gift card and the instructions to go wild on creating some looks for Fall, price-comparing along the way. However, I haven’t been otherwise compensated, and all thoughts, opinions, and killer heels are entirely my own. *** One of my the greatest loves of my life is The Art of the Thrift. I have excelled at this art since the day I found an orange vinyl bowling bag from {Read More}

Okay. This weather. It’s been pseudo-springtime here for a couple of weeks and it’s been fantastic. Sure, it gets chilly again at night, but it’s been quite the welcome reminder that spring is coming. Earlier this week, however, the weather people told me that it was gonna be close to 70 degrees today (noaa.gov- that’s right, I use NASA’s weather people). I have been so excited for this day to get here that I [mentally] planned out three or four {Read More}
