#thriftedchicstylechallenge outfits, May
This was my second time participating in the thriftedchicstylechallenge and it is always fun to create outfits from my thrift store finds. This was a shorter challenge so I have 3 outfits to share. And I would like to thank the ladies who host the challenge for choosing me as the winner of the May challenge!
Outfit #1
I wasn’t sure about this tank top when I purchased it but I really like the material and the pattern. Turns out it is very comfortable and it can be worn with a variety of bottoms. This day I paired it with a thrifted pair of cropped wide leg jeans and my trusty new Madewell sandals (not thrifted and paid full price,lol). I am actually wearing one of my husband’s belt because the pants are too loose!
Of course, I am wearing my trusty Nickel and Suede earrings (gold cork leather). I am saving some money to buy 3 new pairs when I am in Liberty and visit their store!
I am loving wearing white pants this spring! So crisp and they give a fresh look to any outfit!
Outfit #2
This outfit is one of my cheapest outfits: I bought the skirt and the chambray shirt for 50 cents each on my latest trip to the thrift store!
Once again I am wearing a pair of Nickel and Suede earrings, and I thought the Shoreline Converse sneakers were an easy choice. I do not do a lot of pattern mixing but stripes and florals are always an easy way to do it. I love the bright colors of this Target scarf (several years old) that I got for around $5/
.
Outfit # 3
I found this dress for less than $3 and I really like the colors in it (anything red I love) and the bottom part of the dress: there is a wide elastic band that gathers the bottom so I call it my bubble dress.
While it is not super short, I always wear it with these capri leggings and even wore it when I was expecting my youngest. The sandals were an end of summer find at Target (on clearance) a couple years ago. I forgot to wear earrings but the dress makes enough of a statement that you do not want to compete with it.
A bientôt!

The Nickel and Suede earrings are awesome! They are lightweight and well made and I need to add more to my collection!

Some good finds! I went thrifting again yesterday but at a local store… it is interesting since it is the only one in town so while I did find some things, I was a little disappointed I didn’t find as much as I would have like.

Love all your outfits. I really need some white jeans that fit me nicely this year. I buy them every year but always too small when I get them home 🙁 Thanks for sharing at Creative Mondays 🙂 Hope you can join us tomorrow.

The two pairs I have are thrifted. I really want to try a pair from Target to see a full lenght pair on me so I could wear them all year long.

What cute thrift finds! I’m due to go have a really good look at the thrift store, the last time or two I’ve gone, I was “mission driven” son only focused on certain things.

I am going to try to go once a month from now on!
Jacqui Berry
Great bargains my friend – they all look super on you and I love the red, black and white tunic. Thanks for sharing on #chicandstylish Jacqui Mummabstylish

I bought that tunic/dress at the same time as another one which I need to style again soon. I like being able to wear them comfortably with leggings since they are a little shorter!
