Gap jeans/scarf/top, Red Clover blazer c/o, Wanted shoes, Thrifted bag/bracelet
I remember seeing this bag at Target and really wanting it. But it was $24.99, and Kevin sarcastically suggested I just take a basket-weaving course and make the 'fancy basket' myself. Tempting. I put it down and forgot about it, but 6 months later we were reunited at Goodwill with a price everyone could agree on. The universe knew I needed a sequined straw bag, and you can't argue with $3.99.
It's the day before Valentine's day and you know what that means? Galentine's day...a night at the wine bar with my girlfriends and fancy basket.
fantastic scarf and bag love!

Yay for thrifting! That's a super cute bag.
ReplyDeleteThe scarf is SO you, by the way.
This outfit is just beautiful. I love a good boot-cut jean, white top and blazer, but that scarf and "fancy basket" just make this outfit so stunning!
ReplyDeleteHow come all I ever come across when thrifting is dirty polos and size XXL stretchy pants? Some girls have all the luck!
I love the idea of a Galentine's Day! That sounds fun! I have a night like that on Friday, I can't wait.
ReplyDeleteGreat score on the bag too! It was meant to be!

That is an epically cute bag, and I can definitely see that the $3.99 price tag makes it all the more appealing :-) Such a good feeling when the universe rewards patience and restraint like that.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had someone to celebrate Galentine's Day with! I could use a girls' night! You look so cute, and, of course, I love the bird print on the scarf!
ReplyDeleteThats such a fun bag! Hehe Galentines day ;-)

How serendipitous! That bag really does look fancy in these pictures; maybe you need to photograph all of your pieces before letting Kevin judge them. Or, you know, continue to tell him to suck it.
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is stunning, I like how you combined the items! And happy Valentine’s!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day,
