One Man’s Trash

Call me crazy, but lately I have enjoyed rummaging through thrift stores looking for fun clothes and the occasional treasure. Yes, the old saying is true, “One mans trash is another mans treasure”.

Today I am wearing a bohemian (or would you call it hippie?) 70’s dress with flowers on the front, with some great lace leggings(almost like Madonna but not black), Wrangler leather boots and a jean jacket(new) all found at thrift stores.

It always amazes me how many adorably, unique clothes are out there to be recycled and reused. I love finding the occasional dress or shirt from the 50′s and 60′s. And let’s not forget that I am being good to the environment! Go Green Baby!

When I left the house this morning I was ready for the occasional funny comment or odd look but I haven’t received anything negative yet. My hubby said I looked cute, that’s always a plus and actually when I was ordering at Starbucks the beautiful brunette behind the counter said, “I love your outfit”!

I’m not sure I will be able to wear this dress for a while since its getting colder and the whole “White after Labor Day thing” but it sure was fun to wear today.
