My Style Thursday| Goodwill Work Wear


Happy Thursday, friends!!! I hope you all are doing well. Now if you have been around for a while, I KNOW you have taken my advice and stopped by your local Goodwill...multiple times?! I mean I know you are addicted by now, right? Well, if you still don't believe me, or if you're new to the blog...hey girl hey!...let me share with you an outfit I purchased from my Goodwill last week that I believe to be very appropriate for business casual work wear. 
What we have here is a Merona {Target} black and white striped top and a pair of casual, khaki colored Faded Glory {Usually found at Walmart} chinos. 

Seriously, this outfit can be dressed up...say a colorful statement necklace paired with a pair of leopard print flats OR you can dress it down with a chambray button down over the top and a pair of black and white Converses? No?! Holla at ya girl, now!

And yes, I paid $3.79 for the top and another $3.79 for the pants coming in just under 8 bucks. I threw these bad boys in the wash for a good cleansing, and I've already worn both pieces this week!

Lawd knows I love me some Goodwill. If I could go EVERYDAY, I would!

I also wanted to share some quick pics I snapped of the other items I picked up this last trip with you all too: 

Old Navy Coral Shorts $3.79

Mossimo Teal and Navy Blue Striped Top $3.79
Francesca's Tan and Red Embroidered Skirt $3.79

Until next time lovelies,

My Style Thursdays

Hey friends! I'm hoping to add a new series to the blog, called My Style Thursday. My goal is to share with you what I consider to be "my style." I say that very loosely, because Lord knows I am NO fashionista or anything even close. I have mentioned before that I am currently trying to build my wardrobe with simple, classic pieces that I can wear for a good while. Yesterday, I wore a navy blue and cream striped, cap-sleeved maxi dress. 
Dress-Ross; Necklace-GroopDealz: Flats-Target by way of Goodwill
I'm sure y'all have figured out that I don't buy anything unless it's a good deal. Well this here dress was $24.99. Yes m'aam!
This is the brand information if you're interested:
Beige by eci
From my quick research it looks like the brand is sold at Belk if you have one nearby. Overall, the dress totally suits my style, it is super comfortable, and the fit is perfect for me! And guess what, it's maxi dress season. Duh!
Sorry this picture is slightly blurry. 1) I need a better camera. 2) Big R was my photographer, and he was too busy trying to understand WHY I need to take pictures for my blog instead of focusing the camera. SMH. He's a work in progress when it comes to my blogging hobby. LoL.
Oh! To make the dress a little more work appropriate, I wore one of my favorite cardigans over it. The cardigan is by Nautica, and I got it at Burlington Coat Factory a couple of years ago. 

Y'all let me know your thoughts on this new series? What kind of outfits/looks would you like to see? 


Until next time,
