Something Old, Something New

Floral Shorts

In this post, I would like to share another thrift find from my Chicago trip.  My BBF took me to her favorite thrift store in the city, Unique Thrift, and it was our lucky day.  Unique has HALF OFF everything on Mondays.  So my Chicago readers definitely take advantage of that.

I was able to score these amazing vintage shorts for about $4.00 (they were marked down half of $7.99).  The bright, bold floral print caught my eyes immediately as I was perusing the aisle of clothing.

Top It Off - Crop Tops

Well guys, I hope that you all are well.  I am in a really sweet place right now, and it's for more reasons than one.  For starters, I've finally had the opportunity to visit my best friend and her newborn son in Chicago.  Holding that little fellow was a happiness that I have never experienced.  He is such a perfect human, and he will have my heart forever.

Now let's get into this crop top situation.  I purchased this amazing crop top at a store named Windsor while in Chicago.  Of course it was purchased on discount, so that made it super awesome.   This little store was having a mega sale, I also purchased my sandals here.

Muted Statement

The faces that I am making in this post pics are priceless.  Those of you who follow me on other social media outlets may know that I reside in Jackson, MS part-time, so let me tell you about the heat wave here.  The heat is just down-right RUDE.  It's sweltering.  But I can honestly say that I love it here - 115 degree heat index and all.

On this particular day in Jackson, I wore an oldie but goodie.  I got this romper on clearance (as I  do all my clothes) at Express many years ago.  I couldn't have been more happy that this thing still fit after owning it so long, and actually not wearing it for almost 3 years...I had lost it (yikes).  Another thing I love about this romper is it's versatility.  This outfit can easily go from day to night with a simple shoe and accessory swap.  Here I was out about to catch dinner with my babes, so I wore heeled sandals, a red lip, and a statement necklace.  He thought I looked fancy.
