The Texturizer!!

Let us texturize, shall we?  We are not texturizing our hair, rather we are mixing different fabrics! Since this is a new venture for me, I played with the traditional hard and soft contrast. For my hard I wore my faux leather leggings from H&M and for my softer side, I wore my velour
 blazer.  I purchased my blazer from Park Avenue Thrift Store for $7.57, but received half off since I had a 50% off coupon. My floral printed shirt was thrifted from Park Avenue Outlet. As oddly as it sounds Park Ave, a thrift store, has an outlet store with extremely lower prices. My navy, floral shirt was less than $2.  So a quick background,depending on what day of the week you shop at Park Ave Outlet, nothing costs over $2. Monday everything in the store could only cost .75, but on Friday everything could only cost $1.25. Now back to my outfit!  My $3.93 earrings were found at the popular Goodwill. I added my crown brooch as a $3.53 signature touch, also from Goodwill. I wanted to keep the look dark and in the same color family. However, it would not have been right if I didn't add a pop of color.  My bright yellowish/lime hat was the perfect pop to act as a contrast to the dark side.

  1. The blazer is so pretty as are the pants. I love that color family. I enjoy thrifting occasionally but tend to shop at consignment boutiques. You found some good pieces at the thrift shops you visited. If interested, please check out my blog and let me know if interested in following each other on Blogger, GFC and/or Bloglovin.
