-- Friday Finds-- Grandma Jeans

I LOVE any trend that promotes comfort & joy. 
The mom jean trend totally changed my life. 
The other day at my favorite boutique (aka salvation army family store),
I found these grandma jeans. 
Nothing says Granny quite like an elastic waist. 
Here I am trying to make these $2.00 jeans look fashionable. It may look like I'm rocking an adult diaper underneath them, but I'm into it. 

I'm feeling this look with my american apparel circle scarf and a tank. 

Grandma Jeans are my new thing. 
Gonna go knit something, BRB

Thrift Challenge

Every night before I fall asleep, I peruse Pinterest on my phone. I pin my hopes and dreams… & in the process, I give myself thrift challenges. Since the triumphant return of 80's & 90's fashion.. I can find a lot of pinteresty outfits at my local thrift stores. When I find outfits I love, I screen shot them & make it my mission to find something similar. Here are my latest "thrift challenges"

My friend Alex asked me to find her something embroidered
Something like this: 

I found: 


I saw a white dress at Need Supply Co. that I thought was very cool & homeschool(ish)
Super oversized… Could be worn many ways. I NEEDED to find something similar

I found:


(Ended up not being my favorite dress)


I started pinning red & white striped tops (very where's waldo)

I found: 



So my finds weren't exact but i'm excited about trying to make them work.

This weekend Alex & I are spending an entire day thrifting. You can bet i'll be spending this week pinning outfits & getting inspired.

Can't wait for another challenge!

Friday {Finds}

My love for thrifting comes from years of treasure hunting with my grandmother. Lady Diane (as I lovingly refer to her) has an eye for home decor, antiques, and bargains. Even though we live far away from each other, we always keep up to date with our latest thrift store finds. Lady Diane's latest find is a beautiful piece of wall decor that she found at goodwill. I like how the picture sets an inviting tone for her entire living room. Check it out below! 



Proud to say that everything featured in this living room (minus the couch) is thrifted. 
My Grandmother is clearly the MVP of thrifting.
Love it.
