thrifted see by chloe romper

I scored this See by Chloe romper a few months ago during one of my Thrift and The City shopping tours. It clocked in a $20 and is one of my favorite thrift finds yet along with this dress and this necklace and purse. I visited the Brooklyn Flea recently and stocked up on some rings from Artist and Fleas and some Fish and Chips from my favorite vendor at the flea.

SHOP ROMPERS

im so glad its finally warming up. i will be doing lots of thrift tours this spring and summer so make sure to check them out. for more information on the tours click here. I also wrote an ebook about where to thrift in NYC and Brooklyn and score great deals! I'm always delighted when I find something so awesome for a lot less than it would be in a store. If you haven't visited the Brooklyn Flea it is a must do! The food is amazing and the views of Manhattan are breathtaking.

Winter Whites

This is my idea of a minimalist look. I scored the white leather skirt during the summer while visiting the Brooklyn Flea Market. It's one of my favorite places to find unique pieces like this necklace and bag. I have been craving a perfect white leather jacket and although I scored this one while thrifting, when I came across this Zara beaut that I'd been eyeing on sale 60% off...I could not resist.

I love this outfit. Its simple white and black but its one of my favorite looks. I got this cropped top turtle neck tank after doing this post! I went to American Apparel and stocked up like crazy on basic black tops.

Plaid is definitely back

i think i was on to something back during the summer when i thrifted this plaid dropped waist dress from Beacon's Closet. Plaid is definitley hot again. i havent worn plaid since I was a tween rocking plaid skirts like the girls of the movie Clueless. that is still one of my all time favorite movies. i must admit i am loving this trend...both the dropped waist and the plaid. for now this is the only plaid in my wardrobe but I plan on adding lots more soon! doesn't plaid just scream Fall/Winter! thank goodness i took these photos last week before it officially turned WINTER today

I paired this plaid dress with one of my favorite leather jackets. i picked this BCBG leather chai jacket up from Nordstroms Rack a few years back and it has been a constant jacket in my Fall/Winter rotation. check out my post about great Fall/Winter jackets HERE. with this cold weather kicking in i've been spending lots of time discovering shopping websites like this one which has amazing dresses like this one for less than $40! fashion STEELE's all around. they even have a

Back in the 90's section which i love since everything in the 90's in now back in...just like plaid!

white leather skirt

there is one thing i've always always always wanted in my wardrobe that i never ever quite found...until now. that is a white leather pencil skirt. i didn't think they existed except on very expensive websites for over $500.

but one weekend not far ago while perusing the racks at Brooklyn Flea Market...

there it was.

it was perfect...supple leather, no stains, perfect length, split in the back with side panels

with a snake print feel.

and the kicker....she had pockets!

Top: H&M | Skirt: Vintage | Booties: Zara | Sunnies: Spitfire | Lip: Revlon Black Cherry

GET THE LOOK

i am so inlove with this skirt. i have so many ways to wear it brewing in my head.

for this outfit i went simple, clean and classic.

kinda with an Alexander Wang spin.

i paired the skirt with a long see through (in the light) black top from H&M and red Zara booties.

i really love the outcome...understated. and whats even more awesome is this skirt clocked in at exactly $50. it thats not a fashion STEELE i dont know what the hell is!

 

Check out my Thrift and the City Tour on Sept 29th!
