Hi there, and happy (late) Earth Day! I hope you all had a chance to enjoy nature and spend some time outside. But no fret if you did not! Have a nice Sunday afternoon on your porch, take a walk, or close your eyes while you meditate in a sunny spot. When people connect with nature and feel it’s love and energy, a passion is ignited. And with that passion comes change…which is what the world really needs. ✿
As for this week’s OOTD, I found this beautifully made black and white striped dress for $16 at a thrift store in Orange County. I really like this piece because it’s made of a thicker polyester material and feels secure and snug on my body. The white horizontal stripes along the piece pop out a half inch which gives the dress a funky, dynamic look. I did some investigating on the brand name and found that it’s originally from Nordstroms, which is always nice to hear! I’m a big fan of pieces that have interesting cuts, so I really like the large scoop line showing my back.
The necklace I paired it with was $15 at the same thrift shop, made of silver. I’ve been waiting for the right chunky metal necklace, so I was happy to find such an interesting bold piece. Have you ever found an expensive item at a thrift store for really cheap? How much money did you save by going thrift? I’d love to hear!

Your dress is so cute. It reminds me of Audrey Hepburn very classy.
Thank you! that’s a great comparison, it reminds me of the 50s/60s quite a bit.

A beautiful dress and a beautiful blog! I love thrifting not only because I feel it is more ethical but because you come across some absolute gems that you’d otherwise never find! This is a great blog and a wonderful example of how easy it is to look fashionable while not giving a fortune to corrupt businesses!
Hi Kate, thank you so much! I totally agree with you. It’s really fun to walk into secondhand stores with an open mind too. I feel extra creative when I can look at pieces that may be worn out or not my size, and style it in a way that still looks really nice. Thanks for the support 🙂
