the power of thrifting

Today's outfit is a good demonstration of how with patience, a tight budget can still allow one to look fabulous.  This skirt was thrifted at Goodwill but is Anthropologie originally (paid $3.79).  I recently got it hemmed (2 inches off) and love it even more at this length.  My true wrap sweater is 100% cashmere and was thrifted at the Salvation Army for $3.99. 
Since it is slightly cold here today, and we are interviewing a candidate, I decided to throw my Talbot's tweed blazer over the top.  Might not wear it all day, but I like having the option.

  1. What a gorgeous skirt, I love that big bold pattern. It is very Marimekko.

  2. That is a great skirt! I wish I could find Anthro pieces at the thrift stores in my area!
