Corporate Chic: Thrifty lil' Skirt

Greeting Fashionista's and Fashinisto's!

As some of you may know, I finally ventured into the "thrifting" world and I am ecstatic that I tried it! I have found some of the cutest little pieces for near to nothing in cost. Got to love that! This is a skirt that I purchased on one of my thrifting trips. Anywho(my mother doesn't understand why I say this...I know it's not a word, it's just one of those words I chose to remix..kind of like saying Tarjay instead of Target...anyway, I digress...)! Well, lovelies this will probably be my last post until I return from vacation next week! I know I am going to miss some great posts from all of you and will have a lot of catching up to do when I get back...blogging has become such a major part of my world. Thanks guys for making it such a rewarding, enjoyable, and inspiring experience! GOD BLESS! XOXO

I decided to experiment a little with my hair and try a different product line called, "curls" on my hair today..what do you ladies think? My hair is still a work in progress....
I think I am going to go to the Devachan salon in NY and have it cut, so it has better shape to it. I am somewhat apprehensive when it comes to haircuts...My last haircut(in December of 2009) started off like this......
and ended up like this............. 
 I loved the style then but do not want to travel down that road again..short hair was fun at first but waaaay too high maintenance for me! So, I am hoping to keep my length this time around.

What I Am Wearing:
White Tee-H&M
Jean Jacket-Thrifted(Gap)..$10
Blue and Black Skirt-Thrifted(Forever 21)..$6
Black Wedges-Qupid
Earrings-Random
Necklace-H&M
Clutch-Vintage

As Always, THANK SO MUCH for taking the time to visit my blog! XOXO

  2. I LOVE that skirt Roni and I love how you paired that bold skirt with that bold white clutch. clever. :))

    I really like you with shorter hair it brings out your features. But you're right it is a lot of maintenance. That explains why I've been rocking the turbans :))

    Have fun on your vacay.
