Old Meets New

Cardi: Dillard’s;  Dress: Thrifted;  Belt: Thrifted;  Necklace: Ann Taylor Loft (old merch);  Knee Socks: Target;  Boots: Steven Madden Intyce via Nordstrom

Occassion: Running errands, going to see a movie

First of all, let me just point out that this cardigan is new merch from Dillard’s (the store that I have come to hate).  I know that my New Year’s Resolution forbids me to buy new clothes, but I had a gift card and was determined to use it.  Trust me, it was difficult.  I have spent hours upon hours in that place and finally bought a pair of dress sandals and a couple of cardigans.  I’m allowed to use a gift card and not break my resolution, right???  RIGHT?!?!

The dress and belt were two of my purchases this weekend on our fabulous trip to Pensacola.  I couldn’t wait to wear this dress!  Its actually a button down 1980s maxi skirt that I am wearing as a belted strapless dress with a cardi for modesty (I cover up my arms year round).  The belt is a 1980s skinny tie that I simply tied around my waist.  What a great way to mix old and new items to make a completely new look!  I’m loving this ensemble.  Absolutely loving it!

Now, time to go enjoy the new Percy Jackson movie all by myself on my lazy day off.  I’m really beginning to enjoy going to the movies alone.  Its very relaxing.

SMILES!!!
