good long while

hot pink business suit and other thrifty finds

 

Life has been a wee bit crazy of late but at least the thrifting has been good. Last week I spent one of my precious babysitter sessions hitting up my favorite thrift haunts and found a few gems. Here they are, top to bottom.

- I now own a vintage hot pink silk business suit. The blazer fits perfectly and I plan to wear it with jeans. The matching skirt is a little on the small side but is prettty cute, so maybe I'll squeeze into it. I think that I'd only wear the skirt and blazer together on halloween. It's a little intense.

- Can you believe that I almost passed on this fantastic necklace? Luckily technology stepped in and I was able to consult a couple trusted friends via iphone photos who set me straight. This necklace is going to be a show stopper when I have the occasion to wear it.

- Vintage coach shoulder bag. A good find indeed.

- Finally, this crazy ring. It reminds me of some kind of sea coral or anemone. It's not quite the pod ring, but a similar idea.

I couldn't resist this shirt and these jeans for the little guy that were on sale at kate quinn organics.

right now

I'd like to be wearing this right now.

and carrying this.

And I suppose I could go for one of these too.

another one

Here's another chunky wood necklace that I like from etsy.

mini thrift

I stopped by the children's resale shop in town the other day. I didn't find what I was looking for but I didn't walk away empty handed either. 

teething necklace

We've been working on the concept of "gentle" with the little one. We still have a ways to go. In the meantime, a necklace like this might be a good investment.

scout & catalogue

I like the scarves and purses from scout & catalogue.

questionable

I ordered summer shoes for myself and Rye. Inadvertently I picked out the two most joked about "ugly" shoe brands for us. That's okay, I think we can pull them off.

These for me.

These for the little one.

I kind of freaked out when I started looking at the clothes on the Two website (found via here). Nevermind that I completely have a jeans + tshirt lifestyle, I want all of these...especially the last one.

{ clearly I have a thing for caftans and caftan-inspired dresses. see old posts here, here, here, here, and here }

A few second-hand finds for the little one. The camera is his favorite. The moccasins are my favorite.
