Something Old (See Jane Wear)
H&M shirt, thrifted Dior skirt (Goodwill), J Crew belt, Express tights, Enzo Angiolini boots, Elizabeth & James sunglasses, Spike the Punch necklace (c/o), Marc Jacobs bag, CoverGirl ‘spellbound’ lipstick |
I love peruse secondhand shops and thrift stores, but mostly for household items and decor (my sister recently got china similar to my Kate Spade set for $14). Nothing beats sifting through racks for hidden treasures; unfortunately, I usually come up short on the clothing end. I’m probably not the best at treasure hunting because I usually have a set item in mind; more recently, I was determined to get a leather pencil skirt. Well, I didn’t find one, but I did find a cream-colored, wool Christian Dior skirt that fit like a glove…for $5. Seems like an okay trade-off, no?

I love getting skirts from thrift stores. I don't feel bad about totally deconstructing them and getting them tailoring the hell out of them.

What an amazing find! I never have luck like that.
i'm usually not lucky myself when it comes to thrifting, however i think that you've found a pretty amazing piece. it suits you really well!
Can't believe you found a Dior skirt at Goodwill never mind off $5!! I think my best deal was a brand new pair of Prada's for .99 cents. From Brooklyn with love ~jen
There is seriously nothing better than finding an amazing find at a thrift store. I have't gone in so long and it's one of my favorite places to find unique pieces. Love the way you put this outfit together!

So cute Jane! Thrift stores rock my world! And I love how you've styled it up here. The grey belt is perfect and that necklace is beyond fab!
My favourite thrifty find recently is a pair of brown woven leather loafers. I actually posted about them today!
