chippity chop and two fab finds


I did it. I finally got all of the little guts up inside of me and chopped off my hair. Wham!
Usually I regret cutting my hair, but this time I just feel plain old free. 
I was afraid it would look to "mom-ish" but I think it looks young enough, don't you?
If you don't, please don't say so. Then I might start having regrets.

On another note, let me apologize for the number of pictures of yours truly in this post.
It just turned out that way.
I found some great loot at the thrift store this week for ridiculous prices and I wanted to share.
When I showed Robert it was beyond him to envision what I was going to do with them. 
A men's oversized shirt and a grandma skirt? He thought I'd lost my mind. I was ready to prove him wrong.

shirt ~ thrifted for $1.45 leggings ~ f21 hat ~ h&m
boots ~ dsw watch ~ target jewelry ~ thrifted

I love me a men's button-up. They are the comfiest things on this planet, truly.
I feel like I used to be afraid of oversized things because I felt like they made me look big, but by rolling up the sleeves and pairing with leggings the proportions generally work out great.
And besides, you've just created the dreamiest outfit of all time...couldn't be more comfortable.

 
 
 skirt ~ thrifted for $0.69! shirt ~ old navy on sale for $2 shoes ~ nps 
belt ~ rue 21 forever ago watch ~ target jewelry ~ thrifted

Sixty nine cents. Sixty nine cents!! And it had pockets. How could I pass that up? 
I'll admit, it's a little grandma-ish, but grandma-ish is kind of in. And if nothing else, it is ridiculously comfortable and I can wear it when I'm pregs again because it has a stretch waist band.
Total score.

Happy Thursday!

  13. What is with all these random peeps commenting on your blog??? Friday Chaos, huh? Your hair looks fan tab. Did you convince Robert about your purchases or does he still think you're crazy?

    As a side note, I'm going to stop commenting on your blog if I have to keep typing in the random letters and numbers for it to post. I can't stand that!!! I always get it wrong. I just got it wrong twice. ARG!
