I Hope That You See Right Through My Walls.










Floral Dress, Brown Purse: Thrifted.
Beige Cardigan: H&M.
Brown Wedges: Target.

Hello there everyone!
I haven't worn this floral maxi dress in what seems like forever...When I took it out of my closet last night though, I wanted to style it up differently than I ever had before. So what I did was just tuck in the top part to make it a strapless dress and wa la: a brand new dress! The picture directly above it actually what the dress looks like before the transformation. I can't wait to be able to style it for fall again!

I did a bit of thrifting and chatting with a friend of mine today and picked up a few pieces I've really been in need of. A blazer, a cardigan, a black blouse, and also a new skirt. It was such a successful day of thrifting!

Hope you all are doing just lovely, lovely, lovely...
With much love, Lauren.

Don't you just love versatility in clothes? I too have this maxi skirt that I thrifted for 99 cents but I feel like I want it to be just a bit longer. What's awesome is that it still looks fabulous as a strapless dress.

Sounds like you had an amazing time thrifting! I seriously need to buy more basics...I have this red skirt that I cannot match with anything! haha Oh impulsive shopping...
