Navy

Monday was a bank holiday so I decided to take Tuesday off too.   I spend the long weekend doing exactly what I wanted to do (nothing) and recovering from my overtime at work.  For 2013 I have promised myself a new job (with working fewer hours!!)

Dressing up always recharges me and so do my vintage coats.  This coat looks like one I wore a few posts ago but it's a different coat.  I seem to pick out the same style coats and it's hard to pass them up.  I got this one for $10.00 at a thrift shop.  It was way more than that to have it cleaned!  But here is my look for church and brunch a few Sundays ago.








Coat:  Thrifted (Salvation Army)
Dress:  Thrifted
Tights:  Target
Shoes:  Georgina Goodman

  5. I bet there are a lot of movements in that skirt when you move. And I can't believe that you paid $10.00 for the coat! Beautiful!

  22. You look like you're staying warm which is pretty much impossible right now. I love that coat and its ok that the cleaning cost more than the coat itself..it'll stil be less than buying a new coat... :)

  25. You look great. I love your coat. I really need to start thrift shopping. I have only ever been a couple times.

    It is great that you had a long weekend. Everyone needs to recharge their batteries sometimes.

    I have also promised myself that I would get a new job this year.

  26. I love your coat! What a steal for only $10! It's funny because today i posted on my blog about a coat I thrifted for under $20 that ended up costing almost four times as much to have it cleaned! Hope you're able to recharge and get your resume ready!

  27. Haha. I love doing nothing on long weekends, too! I would love to follow each other like you suggested :)
