all thrifted outfit part I

so last weekend I enjoyed 2 full days of thrifting with a haul at Salvation Army in Harlem and a haul at Beacon's Closet in downtown Manhattan.  I scored some pretty awesome pieces for such fashion STEELE's. I decided to do an all thrifted outfit post mixing pieces from each thrift adventure. well not everything is thrifted but the clothing is...hey a girls gotta accessorize right?!


Top: thrifted from Beacon's Closet | Skirt: thrifted from Salvation Army
Shoes: L.A.M.B. Morisa | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff M.A.C. | Necklace: Modern Tibet

thrifting can be hella rewarding and fun! i love it when I find great pieces. i was drawn to this skirt because of the pleats and the color. i have a similar vintage skirt here. anywho this skirt came with this top that a rocked in last weeks post with an American Apparel skirt.
