My J. Crew copy cat look

I know it has been a couple weeks since my last blog, but I have been SICK!  I mean sick like, I haven't gotten out of the house or bothered to get dressed sick.  So sadly, I have been clothed in sweat shorts and t-shirts, and I doubt any of you want pictures of that.  But my lovelies, I am back and ready to be fashionable once again! 

Todays look comes straight from the J. Crew catalog.  I loved the feel of this dress as soon as I saw it, and was thrilled to find a similar one for $6 at my local Goodwill! 

I also LOVE argyle, but lo and behold, I do not have an argyle sweater, but I do have a cute striped one!  You have to work with what you have, and if stripes is what you have, then stripes is what you use.  I lucked out and found these great yellow/grey shoes for $8, they were brand new!  The Target stores in our area donate their shoes that they can't sell, to Goodwill, yay me!  As you can see I took my look more into a 50's housewife direction with the hair and make-up, just goes to show how a little hairspray and red lipstick can change a look completely.  My total cost for this look is, $19!  I never found a price on the J. Crew outfit, I am betting it's a couple more dollars...wink wink.  If you are heading out to the thrift stores, yard sales, or estate sales soon, happy thrifting friends!

As always, please feel free to share my blog or pin me, I love new readers!
