March turned out to be a very quiet month for me, fashion-wise.
(But very busy, business-wise – could there be a link here? As in, when I’m busy with work, I don’t get to go shopping?!)
The February blahs continued. I’m sorry, but I just *can’t* get excited about autumn/winter fashion, when the temperature is still over 30 degrees every day.
So where did I spend my hard-earned cash this month?
Fashionomics Report: March
At the op shop of course, which is not as strictly bound to the “seasons” of the fashion world!
Tribal Print Dress – I love the colours of the print on this dress, in all my favourite colours – various shades of aqua, teal, taupe and chocolate brown. As my sister said when I showed her – it’s very me! (And, I match my home decor as a bonus 😉 ).
The dress was actually a size 20 with a Best and Less label on it, so I took it in on each side, and ran a dart up the back to make it fit. It cost me $5.
Statement Necklace – I’ve been keeping an eye out for a statement necklace in coral throughout the summer, and did see some I liked at Katies but with a price tag of $30-$40 I left them in the store. Then I stumbled across this little beauty at the op shop – brand new with tags!
From Adorne, it was originally priced at $39.95 but I got it for $10 – which is a lot to pay at an op shop, it’s true. I first saw it the day I bought the dress, but hesitated over the price. Needless to say I then thought about it all weekend so went back to get it on Monday morning first thing 😉 .
Here’s the proof – tags below …
