Where'd she go?

Sorry for the lack of posts recently. The holidays are crazy for everyone, and I've been working feverishly on a new business I'm starting (more details to come soon). I'll get back to sharing my daily wear soon :)

Thanks for your patience... Sarah

Mango De Licious




I went to a all-girls burlesque class last night. I was so nervous, but it turned out to be so much fun!! We learned a "sexy librarian" routine...right up my alley! I highly recommend a class like this if one if offered in your area. Today's photos are of my "alter ego" Mango De Licious ;-D


Outfit Details:
Skirt and undershirt, Thrifted. Shirt, Express. Necklace, Newport News. Shoes, Payless.

"Thank You Ever So"


In the 50's, when women and men still wore hats as part of their ensembles these lovely face nets were called fascinators. It's that darling? I found this at the thrift store (where else?) and just had to have it. I love it so! I feel like Lauren Bacall or Elizabeth Taylor!


Outfit Details: Everything thrifted. Nails, CVS.

Shirt/Sweater combo: thrifted. Skirt, Marshalls. Tights and Shoes, Thrifted.

Daylight Savings



I had no idea today was Daylight Savings, so imagine my surprise when I discovered I've acquired a whole extra hour while I slept! Today's outfit is completely thrifted, from shoes all the way to my jacket. (my underthings are NOT thrifted, but that's not something that I'm in the market for thrifting :) ).


At the park today on an absolutely gorgeous Fall day. I wish they were all like this!


Outfit Details: 
Sweater vest and blouse (both Old Navy), thrifted. Skirt (Magazine), thrifted. Jacket (Gadzooks), thrifted. Shoes (Victoria Spenser), thrifted. Earrings and necklace, thrifted. Skirt modification: new zipper installed :)
