KANSAS COUTURE: Red as Strawberries in the Summertime

Tuesday, February 1, 2011

Red as Strawberries in the Summertime

Shirt: Old Navy, $7 // Skirt: Ann Taylor, thrifted, $1.50 // Boots: Vintage, thrifted, $2.50 // Belt: Vintage, thrifted, 50 cents // Necklace: Forever 21, $6

Here's Sunday's outfit featuring a few items from my final shopping trip before the 30 for 30 kick-off. It was a modest but successful jaunt to Salvation Army. I walked away with the red skirt, lace-up boots and brown belt seen here, as well as some t-strap heels, peep-toe flats and another belt... all for $8!

I will share my 30 items with you later today and my first 30 for 30 outfit tomorrow. We are expected to get 9 - 13 inches of snow today, so I don't anticipate changing out of my pajamas.
