Hello, Jackie O!

I felt very 60s today - like Jackie O minus the pillbox hat.

It is COLD here - a sweater dress and tights were just the thing.  I've been wearing a lot of black and gray lately for reasons I'm not sure of, so excuse the monochrome-thing.  In all fairness, my nails are red.

 

(The spots are on the mirror - not the dress!) 

Get your own!

Dress - vintage, local thrift dive, $4.00

Tights - Walmart

Boots - trusty folded-down knee boots, Herberger's 

 

 

Earrings - local thrift dive, free! 

Ring - Not joking, I got this from a $0.25 vending machine at a bowling alley! 

Style quote of the day: "I like that your nails are red like cherry red, not like harlot red."

It's a Skirt! It's a Dress! It's WAY CUTER THIS WAY!

I have this skirt I picked up for $2.00 from some retail store years ago... I wore it happily for a couple of years before realizing that it hits at a really awkward length and I no longer wanted to be seen in it.

I dusted it off from the back of my closet today to try and give it a second life.

This is what I came up with:

I wore it as a dress - it has no belt loops or zippers, so I just hiked it up as a strapless dress.  It hit right at the knee - perfecto!

Dress/Skirt - old!  $2.00

Cardigan - Goodwill, $1.00

Tights - Target, $4.00

Boots - (secretly knee-high boots that I fold down to look like ankle boots) Herberger's, $25.00

Necklace - local thrift dive, $2.00
