A Plaid Thanksgiving Recap and Contest Winners!

A PLAID THANKSGIVING RECAP...

And contest winers!

Outfit Details: 100% thrifted vintage blouse, plaid blazer, fitted jean and Nine West red suede Platform heels. Vintage rhinestone earrings and clutch as well. (Hope's Outlet, Goodwill in Grand Haven, Mi)

Hope everyone has had a peaceful and wonderful holiday weekend thus far! I've enjoyed mine and was lucky enough to spend it with some dear friends (pics below!). We got into a little bit of plaid spirit this year! (Oh, who am I kidding? I'm always in the spirit for plaid. Check out my Love Plaid Pinterest board here!). 

The food was yummy and plentiful!  I brought the old staple: deviled eggs, with a small twist--original deviled eggs garnished with fresh basil, dijon with fresh dill, and curried/red pepper with red onion! They were pretty tasty if I do say so myself. ;)

Also, I'd like to congratulate Rebecca Perkins on winning our Thrift Trick Makeover Giveaway contest!!! Stay tuned for updates in blogs to come before our fashion show event...and don't forget to check out the Thrift Trick FB page so you can stay updated on news for this amazing event on December 8th, 2012!

Build me up...Buttercup and snakeskin!

BUTTERCUP, GOLD AND SNAKESKIN

I wore this outfit on Friday night (hence the indoor night time pictures!) and there's something I just LOVE about the color and texture palette, so had to share some inspiration with you all! The pattern below is from a thrifted and vintage blouse I was wearing with a buttercup vintage and thrifted cardigan as well. The dark fitted jeans are Merona and were a new purchase a few years ago, and the 5 inch snakeskin heels with gold are Guess...another new purchase recently from T.J. Maxx. (Mommy bought them for me! Haha!)

Are you as much in love with this combo as I am? What can you build in your own closet that fits this color and texture scheme?

Don't forget--if you're the type who struggles with the age old question of "what to wear"...I'm giving away a shopping consultation, free makeover AND a free thrifted outfit as a precursor to the official Thrift Trick Fashion Show and Clothing Drive!
