My new Company: Revived Designs

Hi everyone!
Please check out my brand new business: Revived By Design. I sell embellished yoga clothing and active wear for women. This is what I have been working so hard on for the last few weeks :)

Here is a sampling of what I've created so far.

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.

Hot For Teacher

I wore this top once last fall and I just love it! I can't describe how it makes me feel exactly: a little sexy yet still ladylike and proper.... what a great combination.

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

All Business

I had a ton of meetings yesterday (I've been a day behind on my posts, so this is from yesterday). This is what I wore to look elegant but still no-nonsence.

Outfit Details: Blouse, Jacket Skirt and Shoes, Thrifted. Belt, Target.

The Last Time I Saw Paris

I just purchased this beautiful coat after watching "The Last Time I Saw Paris" with Elizabeth Taylor. There's this great scene where she has a trench coat and runs through the rain... it's beautiful. 

Outfit Details: 
All clothing thrifted, necklace (actually a belt), Nordstrom. Shoes, Macy's. 

Dressed by the Mister

So, I asked my husband to pick out my wardrobe for today, and I think he did an absolutely fantastic job!

Outfit Details: 
Sweater, Old Navy. Tank, Skirt, Shoes and Necklace, thrifted. Tights, gift. 

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 :) 

Full Service Station

Mr. Not in Pajamas and I stopped to get gas and I thought it was a great opportunity to showcase my outfit today. I sure do love this necklace - I've been wearing it a ton lately. I picked it up at the thrift store and it has no makers mark that I can find. Anyone have an idea who the artist might be? let me know in comments :)

The modification I made is to the skirt. It is thrifted and it needed the underlayer hemmed up - I think the top layer shrunk while the under layer didn't - leaving a big of extra hanging down. It was a quick fix, and now it looks great!

Outfit Details: 
Skirt, vest, shirt, tights, and necklace, all thrifted. Boots, Whiplash (San Diego). 

Bookworm

Loving my home library, and these "new" Eddie Bauer" slacks and cashmere sweater from The Limited.
I had to add length to the hem of these pants, but I think it turned out well.

Outfit Details:
Pants (Eddie Bauer), thrifted. Sweater (The Limited), thrifted. Necklace, thrifted. Shoes, Payless. Glasses, Foko.

Tiesto!

Jamsion and I went out to see Tiesto last night at the Upland - he's a Dutch DJ. It was great fun. So good to get out and dance! This is what I wore :)

Outfit Details:
Blazer and shirt, thrifted. Pants, Hot Topic. Booties, Payless. Nails, CVS. Earrings, Claires.

Retro Style

Some of you may remember this skirt/sweater combo from last winter. I love it so - especially paired with these great (and completely weather inappropriate) heels and matching purse!
