Poshmark Finds

April 27, 2020 /

Well, I haven’t done too well with my slowing down on my shopping lately but at least I am trying to include some small business/substainable fashion in it! This past week Meg from @pixieandcurls on Instagram was sharing some pictures of some finds she was going to post on her Poshmark account and I decided to do a little shopping. It would both help her and my closet! Here are 3 of the items I purchased (there is a pink/purple denim jacket that I  gifted to a tween and a cute little yellow bucket purse that might make an Instagram appearance at some point.

Fun, Fun, Fun Bando Tee

This new with tag tee drew my attention right away: I am on a graphic tee kick right now and it was black (very versatile) and also colorful (so many earring options) and can be worn with skirts, jeans and shorts alike. On this day, I wore it with my Target mustard shorts from last year, my black Madewell sandals (you can find them at Nordstrom Rack for $19.99 right now! Click here to shop) and my yellow Nickel and Suede earrings.

First up, I had to share this really fun picture my oldest took. He usually takes all of my blog pictures while my 9 year old has been taking my Instagram pictures. While all the boys complain whenever I tell them we are going on an outing, they all enjoy it once we are there. My oldest took 77 pictures on his phone and then also took the pictures I needed for this post.

I have shared these sandals on the blog many times and they really are comfortable and stylish. They would not be practical for a real hike but for walking on grass and the walkway, they were fine.

It was really windy the beginning of our walk! I love the bright and shiny letters in this tee and I cannot wait to wear it again.

Time and True blouse and backpack purse

I never used to shop Walmart brands clothing much but as you have noticed if you read fashion blogs, they have really upped their game lately and the softest in their clothing and quality has improved (I bought a cute pair of Snoopy/Woodstock pjs a little while ago) as well as the styles are right on trend. This blouse caught my eye right away in Meg’s Poshmark closet especially that I could tell the fit by her picture wearing it that it would work for me (she is more petite and I have still have my little muffin top).

I paired the blouse with white ankle pants but it would good with jeans, denim shorts, tied in a a knot with a pencil skirt… Again I am wearing my Madewell sandals but in the English saddle color, there is only th size 6 left! Shop now! I  do not usually buy something in more than one color but I really liked these (I do not make any commission on any of the items I link, I just recommend what I wear and like).

The backpack purse is really cute and will be handy for outings this spring and summer (even if only to the state parks). I will fit the essentials as well as a couple water bottles and snacks. I love the blush color as I have several things in that color in my closet and it is very versatile.

The 2 little pockets are practical for holding keys and small items and the interior is lined

Will I shop different people’s Poshmark again? Probably. This being my first time, I had free shipping which was a nice incentive. Having seen Meg’s style on Instagram I knew that there would probably be some things in her “closet” that I would like. I think my main lesson is to double check on the size of items to make sure they will fit me right. I do now know that Bando brand tees fit me perfectly in a size small. I do want to start shopping more 2nd hand as a way to help the environment and others so I will keep my eyes out and browse. I really liked what I chose and have different outfits in mind for these 2 tops and this bag!

This was a fun experience!

A bientôt!
