In preparation for having my head included* in potential photos for the story, I held a couple *high-fashion* photo shoots...
The Greatest Day Home Provider Ever took this shot of me after work in what I was wearing that day! She has gorgeous décor and a clean house all the time, ready for photo shoots; I'm in awe.

The next high-fashion shoot took place later that night when my hubby got home from a work function, i.e., jammie and wine time, but I held off in honour of style.

Black pointy flats $7
Elephant and dot print sleeveless top $4.20
Double strand gold necklace $4
Bangles are second-hand-me-down from my sister.
All from VV Boutique, Total = $29.20.
*Don't get used to my head. With 4 and 7-year-old's doing most of the photography, something's gotta give! There's freedom in cropping!
I had a great time as usual playing around with my now-ample selection of VV Boutique pieces. The Journal's original theme was to find a thrifted outfit for $50 or under; these two combined are under $50, and just a small sample of all the wonderful possibilities from my wardrobe!
Since starting this adventure, I've discovered a lot of people that love thrifting as much as I do! It's so much fun, and feels great to know you're doing a small part supporting Value Village's non-profit partners. The staff are without exception friendly and available! All in all, it is a wonderful shopping experience that I hope many more people explore!
I don't know how your make-up looks good all day!!!!!!! Mine doesn't - and it is MAC even!
ReplyDeleteYour outfits look much better with a face. Your face is the best accessory :)
Oh em gee! If you get this three times, I'm really sorry. I saw your blog in the Edmonton Journal via Twitter, yes you're a celebrity now! I think you should leave your head with the outfits as it completes the ensemble. Perhaps you could be a personal shopper at VVBoutique for the fashion pitiful community? Great article.
ReplyDeleteNice to see your face. Yes i agree with the other commenters. Your face is needed in the outfit posts and maybe bigger pictures?
