Thrifting Queen

WIW: For a day of running around

August 9, 2012

I have one of those days where I have about a million places to go for little errands - need halogen light bulbs for the kitchen, I'm out of Starbuck's coffee for my Tassimo, need to drop off some dry-cleaning, pick up son's prescription - you know, one of those days.

Am wearing my dark wash denim bermuda shorts, paired with my green pin tucked scoop neck tee, and floral flats. I've added my raffia handbag and away I go...

What do you think? Does it all work? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.

Tee: Cleo Petites
Shorts: Reitmans
Shoes: Blowfish
Handbag: thrifted

    I especially love those shoes and that bag! ;)

    Even a tee, shorts, and sneaks look totally fab and put-together when you do it!

    I am, of course, a fan of Halogen's fab pencil skirts and jackets, but I was not aware they made light bulbs! :p

    This is a perfect casual outfit! That bag is great!

    Love the outfit and especially the color of the top. Looking this fabulous should make errands more enjoyable. :)

    LOL, Mary K!!!!

    Love this whole outfit. This is exactly how I have been dressing all summer except I do not look as cute as you. Maybe because I do not have the flowered shoes.

    Love your raffia bag, too.

    I think you are just as cute as can be in this outfit, Shannon.
    You look playful, fun, casual but put-together.
    Love those shoes!

    MaryK- you make me laugh!

    MaryK, LOL!

    Perfect! It's so easy to get this look wrong or not bother since it's casual... I see so many people who could stand do casual this way.

  • JulieJohn replied 11 years ago

    Nice and neat with a splash! Like a summery cocktail.

  • Kirti replied 11 years ago

    Shannon, you look fresh and pretty! I'm wearing a t shirt and cut offs today too! :)

  • Jem replied 11 years ago

    LOL Mary!

    This is a great running around outfit. I love the green on you and your purse looks really summery and fun.

  • Emily replied 11 years ago

    You look very fun and chic, Shannon! I love the floral shoe.

  • Transcona Shannon replied 11 years ago

    Back for some lunch and then maybe a mid-afternoon nap (how decadent!).

    Thanks all for your kind comments - MaryK, you are cracking me up!

  • Beth Ann replied 11 years ago

    Easy and fun! This outfit is amped-up by the shoes and bag. Happy nappy!

  • glam on the inside replied 11 years ago

    Joining the shoe and bag fan club! And I think the colour of your top is super flattering. You look great.

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.
