I love a good structured blazer!! I have been trying to keep up with Dina's 12 months of Thrifting challenge. Each month, Dina posted something to look for while thrifting. Last month, her challenge was to find a navy or black blazer.
Since I am on the taller side, I have a hard time finding blazers that fit me well. I want my blazers to go past my waist. That way I can actually wear them with jeans, pants, and skirts.
I picked up this Gap blazer at a sack sale at a small thrift store, Heart and Hand. Heart and Hand is not for the faint at heart. This store is not organized well and there tend to be piles everywhere. I usually try to swing by there once a month and try to get in and out as quickly as possible. They recently had a $4 sack sale. I LOVE sack sales!! We don't have too many thrift stores in the area that do sack sales, but when I find one, I usually stuff my bag as full as possible!!
I spent a whooping .33 on this blazer!! It will be in my closet for years!!
I paired it with a fun classic striped dress I picked up at Salvation Army for $5.99 and a pair of vintage inspired heels for $2. I have been on the hunt for vintage heels for months now. I have a larger foot, so when I find a vintage pair of shoes in my size I am stoked. These are not vintage, but they definitely look like something from the 1940s or 50s. They are actually quite comfortable for a heel. My necklace is from BelJoy Haiti.
From head to toe, my outfit cost around $50, including my necklace.
Enjoy your Sunday!!
