I love thrift shopping. I'm totally and completely one of "those people". In all seriousness why should I spend 48 bucks for a dress at retail, maybe 28 at an (always fabulous) outlet mall when I can probably find something equally amazing, equally name brand for less than 10 bucks. I love me some thrift shop *channels Macklemore*. Moving on, I went to my local Goodwill and scored some awesome things. Enter red pants.
I got these little beauties for 3.49. Half off, blue tag color of the week. Originally 6.99.
Almost Famous ultra skinny skinnies. I grabbed them thinking "hmmm, they look awful close to being a little too tiny", which almost never happens, however they were pleasantly stretchy so I gave them a go. They are made of some awesome super tiny corduroy that feels like the velveteen rabbit.
Of course, as I tried on my purchase(s, more Thrift Store Steals to come!) a mini-photoshoot ensued with the help of my new LG G Stylo and my new selfie stick.
5 Ways to Rock Colored Pants
What do I add to a statement piece? Why, a few more statement pieces of course! I threw on my go-to easy dress up sweater, a silver -knit crewneck from Rue21. My silver pointy toe flats and a time turner complete this "coffee date and errands" look.
These were practically painted on, I thought a loose flowy top would pair well and stave off some of the harlot vibe. I chose a breezy batwing tunic I got last spring for $2 at Rue21. I don't know if you can tell but I love that store. Olive green wedges from shoedazzle.com.
Valentine's date night outfit anyone? Black ruffle off-the-shoulder crop and black wedges from shoedazzle.com. Feminine with a little edge, a fab pop of color and practically begs you to shrug on your black leather bomber. Add red lips to complete the look.
Buttoned up doesn't have to be boring. With my classic adulty George dress shirt under a half sleeve button up cardi, I'm respectable yet fabulous. My office/drinks after work ensemble features my new favorite shoes: my Mossimo from Target black suede booties. Comfortable enough to wear all day.
You always have the option to down play and go about your day as Casual AF Girl. Beat up brown leather biker boots, socks that I'm pretty sure belong to my brother and a lived in tee from high school (repping SHHS! Go Huskies!) compete to be the most casual. However be warned, this outfit is most likely NSFW.
Overall, I love these pants. Awesome and astonishingly versatile pants that I am so glad I had the privilege to add to my collection.
