Lioness

Black shrug with faux fur collar, Takara (borrowed). Brown sweater, Worthington (thrifted). Brown suede skirt with laser cut hemline, Isaac Mizrahi for Target. Brown fishnet tights, No Boundaries. Black, patent slingbacks, Audrey Brooke. Golden apple watch necklace, Forever 21.

I feel like a lion today with my crazy mane and faux fur ruff. Rowrr!

My downtown working girl buddy and I temporarily swapped clothes this weekend. We met at her place. I brought some things that she could just have, and some items to borrow. She also had a giveaway pile and then gave me access to her fabulous closet to pick out a few loaners. Quite unexpectedly, we found that one of the more entertaining parts about the swap was NOT being able to choose what to borrow (as in my friend’s case). I brought her at least one item that she wouldn’t have even thought to try on, but she loved. I can’t wait to see what she brings me next month!

Thrifted Mossimo Sweater

Black and white cardigan with pockets, Mossimo (thrifted). Orange T, Merona. Jeans, Lucky.

I visited a new thrift store on Saturday morning near the intersection of Colerain and Banning. I found tons of great stuff – so much, in fact, that I had to put some of it back! This Mossimo sweater was one of my scores. It is a very thick, cotton knit with the cutest handwarmer pockets. The best detail is that the buttons go all the way to the top, so it can be worn as a turtleneck or open collar. I love it so much that I slept in it!
