Thrifting Queen

WIW: Boxy Blue

July 10, 2014

Today's outfit started with my blue EF front drape dress…..aaaaahhhhhh….sooooooo comfy.

On top of the dress I've added my boxy blue linen jacket. I love the kind of "shapelessness" of this jacket. It's going to be quite hot outside today but I know my office will be cold. This jacket is perfect for popping off and on and is nice and light.

For footwear, I went with my pewter peep toe wedges and I chose my bright citron clutch, red specs and a chunky gun metal cuff for accessories. The cuff, shoes and buttons on the jacket all match.

Nothing fancy, but I'm comfortable, appropriate for my office and feeling good. What say you all? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.

Jacket: Liz Claiborne (thrifted)
Dress: Eileen Fisher (eBay)
Shoes: Mark's Work Warehouse
Clutch: Gap
Cuff: thrifted

    Perfection!  I can feel how comfy you are in that dress :)

    And you're reinforcing my desire for a citron purse... I love it so much with cobalt.

    It is such a great foundation dress -- you can really change the vibe depending on the toppers!

    I say that's another fabulous outfit! The clutch adds a delightful pop of color. A versatile and comfy dress is a wonderful wardrobe staple.

    As Ceit said, you can give that wonderful dress a million looks. I think that I may have thrifted the same LizC jacket or it's cousin. The blue linen is great in the summer when denim is too warm. You look Fab. U. Lous.

    This looks comfy and classic all in one, and I adore the blues here.

I started playing dress up when I was 4 years old and haven't stopped since! My income doesn't match my tastes so it's all about figuring out how to thrift my way to a fashionable life while tossing in a few delectable items.
