I think this is a record for me.

In other news, this weekend’s thrift “browsing” expedition with my husband was a little excruciating because we wound up at two of my favorite spots, The Cure Thrift Shop and No Relation Vintage.

He walked away with a number of goodies. I, on the other hand, walked away with zilch because of the shopping ban.

Tell me folks, how is that fair?

    I see you made some changes around here…looks great! It looks clean and modern. This outfit is hot and they keep getting better! Also, thanks for the vintage shopping recs; I’ll be sure to check those spots out because I’ve definitely been on a thrifting binge lately.

      Actually, Tumblr just deleted my custom header, lol! But thanks, I’ll probably just leave it since I’m working on switching over to WordPress…. as soon as I can figure out how to transfer all the comments over :-/

    Completely unfair! Once the shopping ban is over I think you owe yourself a bit of a spree! xx

    • ClosetConfections November 24, 2010 at 1:15 pm

      I think so, and I already having a list of items prepared!

    You are a strong gal. Cause I wouldn’t be able to pass up a good bargain of goods. Keep on keepin on : )

    • ClosetConfections November 24, 2010 at 1:16 pm

      It was really tough, especially with the vintage items. ‘Cuz once they’re gone, they’re gone for good :-/

    You are a strong lady for sure. I don’t think I could walk away from my favorite haunts with nothing. I love this outfit on you. It is simple but very flattering. I LOVE your hat!

      Thanks! I thought it was just the cutest thing when I saw it in the store.

    not fair at all! i made the mistake of messing around on boutiques.com today. horrible idea. i now want to buy EVERYTHING and i can’t buy ANYTHING. pout.

    also, i love that denim shirt on you! the denim-on-top trend intrigues me but also makes me dubious. people like you who can pull it off are inspiring 🙂

    • ClosetConfections November 26, 2010 at 10:42 am

      Yeah, I’m really surprised at how versatile this denim shirt is.

  • Shoe November 24, 2010 at 7:02 pm

    Oh my goodness you are gorgeous. I like the outfit too, but you’re just radiant!

    Yeah, I kind of can’t believe all the pants I’ve been seeing lately! I seriously thought I was hallucinating it or something at first. Is that a scarf with a hood? I am extremely jealous, it looks awesome especially because it looks like it’s part of the jacket!

  • Tiffany November 24, 2010 at 9:31 pm

    Denim and black pants are so classic together!! Love this outfit!!
    And, you’ll love wordpress when you get there!

    • ClosetConfections November 26, 2010 at 10:37 am

      I’m sure I will. I used to use WordPress exclusively for business, but thought I would give Tumblr a try for my “fun” blog. Big mistake!

  • M&SJ+C November 25, 2010 at 5:29 pm

    Thanks for visiting my blog. I love those boots!

  • Sara November 26, 2010 at 10:37 pm

    This is super HOT!! Skinny pants and a boy-ish, cute, button down shirt is one of my favorite looks!

  • bluecollarkyla November 29, 2010 at 12:27 am

    Holy crap, I love these pictures! The photo of you with your hat and coat on looks like it could be right out of a magazine! I love the hat!

    • ClosetConfections November 29, 2010 at 3:45 pm

      Thanks! I’m glad you like them. As soon as I saw this hat/scarf in the store, I knew I had to have it.

  • gina December 22, 2010 at 10:57 am
