A Fine Dime: Monday’s Outfit

 

Welcome! This is my first “The Fine Dime” post! I have a much bigger post coming soon that is my GRAND OPENING, so to speak, but this one is like a sneak peak and prelude to my big post which is being featured on a blog that I love… stay tuned! I am so excited!

I love fashion, it’s in my blood and I get excited when I put an outfit together from super good sales, thrift stores and gifts from friends. I’ll try to make it easy to replicate, my style is about re-purposing, up-cycling, buying a few basics and re-organizing what you already own.

-Dress- $6, H&M from a thrift store.

-Trench Coat- $30, Target Liz Lange Maternity, re-purposed for my wardrobe.

-Tights- Maude, (local Fayetteville boutique) a gift from a friend. I wore them while I was pregnant. :)

-Boots- $40, Shoe Carnival

-Belt- I have no idea… leftovers from High School. (it will never fit on my hips again…)

-Necklace:  Target, a gift from my sister.

Boot socks- $1, up-cycled from an Eddie Bauer sweater I got this summer at a garage sale that really didn’t fit me very flatteringly. Now it does! :) I simply cut off the arms  and put the sleeves on my legs. Some people were worrying about it unraveling but it hasn’t yet so maybe I’ll post an update on this…

    I like the idea of the boot socks, I didn’t think about that but love it! You look beautiful! :)

    I love that coat!

    Love it. I definitely can use some help in this area, so I’ll be staying tuned! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got up your sleeves, er, boot socks?
