The inspiration to finally use my white skirt came from my Mom, she bought one at a thrift store in her area lately and asked for a little advice from her blogger daughter. She is my biggest fan! I told her how I would wear it, with a basic t-shirt tucked in, that is classic and comfy for me. She went with a t-shirt un-tucked with a belt, I love it!
She certainly has better scenery for a background, I will have to do a blog there next time I visit to get some of those flowers in. I tried to make her picture bigger, but since it came through text, this is the best I could do...sorry Mom!
In the look that I copied, I love the black button up top, it is very chic, great for fall (I don't follow the no white after labor day rule, I am a rebel) and would be very office appropriate. I had considered throwing a belt into my look, (I have a strange obsession for them) but decided to keep this one very simple and straight forward. Here is a second picture just in case you hadn't seen enough yet...
The cost for my look today was, $14! The shirt is actually an old work shirt I had, but I did get it at a thrift store for $4.
As always thank you for reading, I appreciate all of you!
On another note, if you live in the El Paso TX area and would like to volunteer your time and body to me I would be very thankful! I am starting a portfolio of thrift outfits, to display my talents, and I am in need of models of all shapes and sizes. Please contact me through email or leave a comment with your email address and I will send you a short survey to get your sizes and preferences. As always, don't forget to share me with your friends through Facebook, Google+ or Pinterest!
