A while back I had the time to do a quick, fun set of photos on my balcony as the sun was going down. I got so many compliments on this outfit that day that I thought it'd be fun to post this look and promote thrift store clothes.
I realized after I put together this outfit that I sort of looked like a cross between a biker chick, and an equestrian/horse back rider person.
You'll have to excuse the mess of my balcony in these photos. The balcony is now clean, thankfully, but at the time, it hadn't swept much since the weather has been colder, and been unoccupied and neglected some. Now that I think about it, it was very warm that day that I took these photos.
I think my favorite parts of this outfit are the shirt, and the red bandana. How patriotic is this shirt?? I dig that it says "Freedom Forever." :-)
I will openly admit that I absolutely adore these socks that I got for free. First of all, they are incredibly thick and warm because the brand that donated these clothes to us is a base layer brand for outdoorsey campers and skier/snow boarder types. Which I am sort of not, although I love a good camping trip now and then. Anyway, besides being so warm and comfy, I love that these socks have colorful cocks fighting. It makes this outfit feel even more bada$$. Haha.
And of course, an outfit post would not be complete without some accessories.
I have this thing for heart jewelry, especially these days. These bracelets look like they would match because the different shades of metal (silver, bronze, gold) but that was unintentional as I bought them all separately. I often wear them together anyway because they match, and I love a good reminder of love. The silver Celtic heart is my favorite I think, and I bought it at a monastery I went to recently for a retreat. I've learned a bit about Celtic spirituality and I've come to really identify with, and love the emphasis of experiencing God in nature.
Red bandana (old) + Freedom Forever shirt (thrifted) + Jean jacket (old) + pants (free donated) + cocks fighting socks (free donated) + black boots (thrifted) = very cheap, fun outfit of less than $10! Go shop at the Sonshine Shop!
Some of you may be asking, "How does this girl get so much free stuff?" I will answer that question soon. :-)
My balcony was revived this summer, and is still in process as one of my projects. Soon and very soon, I will post about it! I know, so mysterious, I am. Peace.
