Chic fashionista minus the materialism - a 30 day thrift challenge!
I could possibly be the worst blogger in the history of bloggers. Forgive me, my last confession, I mean post, was over a year ago. I will skip the "Hail Mary's" and get straight to the point. I need to get my online self together. I am never going to be able to quit work and stay at home to blog and be famous if I never post. So, I had an epiphany today as I was browsing the aisles at Carolina Thrift, my go-to thrift haven. They have EVERYTHING a penny pinching diva could need! Anywho...I got to thinking about our cultures obsession with shiny, new and expensive clothing. I believe Madonna's "Material Girl" over the loud speaker may have triggered my subconscious to begin this inner dialogue but I can't be certain. I often have short term memory loss when I am surrounded by thousands of garments under $3.00! One idea did survive the insanity and I am super stoked to bring it to my blog. I am challenging myself to not enter any department or retail establishment this month. That is right, all my clothing this month will be either from a thrift store, consignment sale, gifted to me, stolen from a dumpster, you get the point. I want to show everyone that you can have style and fashion without breaking the bank. Or even going to the bank for that matter. Every day for the next month, starting tomorrow because today is FOOTBALL!, I will post a photo of my outfit, brief description and total cost. This should be a fun experiment and a way to get me blogging again. Here goes nothing! Toodles until tomorrow! Oh and before I forget...today is Pasha's 8th birthday!!!
