Thrifty Green

When it comes to shopping for clothes, I’m not a picky shopper. I shop wherever my heart desires. H&M, Forever 21, Downtown L.A. alleys, swapmeets, outlets and my favorite, THRIFT STORES!!! Shopping at local thrift stores is a lot of fun for me. It’s like a treasure hunt. You thrift hop from store to store and if you’re blessed that day, you will find treasures!! Which brings me to my outfit of the day. I found this forest/fern green cardigan a few months back at a local Goodwill in Hollywood for just $3. The moment I eyed the cardigan, I knew I had to own it. The shade of green was such a perfect Spring cardigan color. The detailing was even more perfect with tiny rosy pink flowers knitted decoratively around. It was an instant buy. So for today’s look, with the cardigan as my cute statement piece, I went for a simple “picnic” inspired look. I received lovely compliments at work from customers and even had them asking me where I had purchased my cute grandma sweater :) Best $3 spent!? TOTALLY!!! So please, trust me when I say this, you don’t have to spend a lot of money on clothes, sometimes, a couple bucks is enough. Remember what they say, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure!
