Daily Outfit - 07/03/09 & 07/06/09

dailywear


I hope all my domestic readers had a fantastic holiday weekend (hopefully it was a great 3-day weekend too) and all my international readers had a great weekend also!!

I was still totally in holiday mode this morning and apparently hit my alarm off while still sleeping. I woke up an hour later and while shuffling to the bathroom realized this! Luckily, I had picked out my outfit (including my new super bargain dress) last evening and was able to make a mad rush to get ready in 30 minutes! I even had time to snap these pics!

Dress - Thrifted (NWT and originally priced at $72), on sale for $3.50 (July 2009)
Cardi - NY & Co, on sale + coupon for $20 (Spring 2009)
Belt - NY & Co, on sale + promo code for $10 (Spring 2009)
Necklace - ??
Shoes - Shoedazzle.com, $39 (May 2009)

This past Friday I stopped by a thrift store that I just discovered last week that was having a 50% off clothing sale in honor of the holiday weekend. I scored this great dress for $3.50, a black blazer that still had the $170 original price tag on it for $2, a Kenneth Cole Navy Wool Coat for $3 and a Larry Levine Purple Wool Coat for $2.50 (similar to this one). I couldn't believe my luck!!

This is the casual outfit I threw on to go thrifting and out to a super casual lunch with my aunt and uncle.
