THRIFT HAUL: Double Breasted Knit

Good Afternoon my fabulous friends!!!

 

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend and hope your Monday is going well so far. Todays post is about a double breasted cardigan I thrifted on the street floors of Mt Fletcher - got it for R15 (~$2) yes, that much :)

 

Great thing about it is that it is as good as new - no stains or fluff balls just perfection!!! Lesson I am relaying today is that - the price tag don't matter especially when an item fits you well.

 

For me, nothing beats the joy I get when I score a great thrift item - I always think of how much I am saving by acquiring that fab item. What iskey for me when I thrift is to get items that are ready to be worn. I avoid items that require fixing before they can be worn. Ofcoz, that increases the value spent on that item and I don't want that and investment of more time - I know there are exceptional cases I might find myself doing exactly that. So, only then I'd bend my motto!!!

 

What is your thrifting strategy??

Curves Around the World: Week15 - Polka Dot

 

Happy Spring ladies!!!

 

It is Wednesday today, you all know what that means for you - its Curves Around the World themed outfit series!!!! This week our theme is Polka Dot - I love everything polka dot as a result I have plenty of options. Thought id do a dress outfit but decided to opt for my thrifted skirt instead. I paired this skirt with bright coloured items to bring life to it as it is a navy and its the first days of spring - I am trying my best to look relevant even though I have not sorted my wardrobe for this season.  

 

I wore this outfit yesterday at work and managed to take pictures in my office as it was a very busy day to be posing outside. I think overall, the pictures really show my polka skirt actually the entire outfit nicely. What you will notice from these pictures though is that, I have covered the sides of my hair cut because I haven't shaved them the past week and is looking bad not covered. This is mainly because my hairstyle is very old now and deserves change. I think that'll be taken care of this coming weekend. So, do look forward to a new me these coming days :)

 

Back to polka dot: everyone everywhere is wearing polka - do you like polka? Which colour combination rocks your world? I love red n white OR black n white but don't mind any polka I land my hands on :)
