Two jumpsuits for .99 cents at Last Chance Thrift Store

Tuesday’s I generally stop in Last Chance with about $5.00 or sometimes less, I like to limit myself to see what Fabuless find I can score. This is how I also shop for my clients that like thrifty but does not have the time, the store has specials on Tuesdays and Wednesdays where you can get items for .99 cents.

The colors for today are Yellow and White, look out for these tags and bring even just $10.00 to shop for a few Spring/Summer items.

The aisles that calls me are the dress, skirts, pants and shoes . Well on one of my visits two jumpsuit popped out to me with the names “Cherokee” Hmm who are they? Immediately I goggled the brand. They are a uniforms, oh my oh my, I love it and am going to get it anyways.

This is how I styled the first one in purple with my Steve Madden wedges, and Gold accessories to complete this look.

The next one was in Fuchsia with yellow Antonio Michael pumps and my favorite accessories Gold chunk bangles.

The joys of thrifty also is that you shop for less and half of your purchase goes to an organization, so you shop and give back at the same , something am passionate about.

Another joy is that you can have on a stylish top for $1.00 and pricey bottom or vice a versa.

Happy shopping today, need any help thrifty shopping feel free to book your appointment with me here Style Seat I will be glad to Shop and Style with you.

Sunday I wore a hat due to the weather with spiked pumps I scored for $27.99 from Shoeland, another store had the same shoe for over $100.00. Styled it with a skirt I scored from Last Chance Thrift store for $1.00 and the hat $.79 cents from last chance thrift store. Today special is .99 cents drop by and see what FABULESS FINDS you will score.

The skirt was a bit big at the waist so I added the slim pink belt to secure it but keep the style classy

Happy shopping and let me know how I can Shop or Style with you next time.

DIY clip on earrings to rings

May 9, 2012 VirtuousOne 1 comment

Today’s DIY comes from my two butterflies , changing your clip on earrings into rings.

These are really easy to make – from old clip-on earrings. Here’s how:

You may also want to use a metal file to file any rough edges off of the clip-on.

Cut small slits in a piece of cardboard and slide ring blanks in to hold steady. Apply adhesive and attach earring. If you want your rings to be really durable you may want to use a strong epoxy adhesive.
Let adhesive dry completely – at least overnight- before wearing your rings.

A few of my favorites:

Next ring comes from Ira Vilaga

-Plain rings as the shank
-Buckles as the head/setting
-Adhesive/bonding agent like glue
Basically, I am making these cause
I want to have rings that not only give statement but are unique. I just bought two designs cause I wanna try first. This is so cheap and it’s so easy to make.
