Top- Express (Value Village)/ Skirt- Vintage (B & R Thrift)/ Clutch- Vintage (Value Village)/ Shoes- No Name/ Accessories-Vintage



I scored this super cute pleated plaid skirt at B & R Thrift Store in Sandy Springs. It it now one of my favorite places to thrift on Thursday's because all women's clothing is 50% off. You can't beat that deal. 


But even more exciting is the Thrifted Fashion Showcase that I am co-hosting along with thrifting partner Kerrie of Virtuous Styls. We will style models in thrifted fashion to showcase that thrifty can be stylish too. All of our guests will get a coupon worth 30% or 50% off their purchase. Plus we will be on hand to shop and style our VIP guests. I invite my Atlanta friends to come out to support!!









So what do you think of my plaid skirt. I admit that I am not a big fan of plaids, but it's a trend that I wanted to try. I fell in love with the color, length and the fit. Will you be wearing plaids this season? If so, would you buy this trend retail or resale?

Whould you like to comment?

  1. I dig the plaid for sure and what a cool collaboration!  That sounds like SO much fun!  You have inspired me to break out my granny plaid midi skirt as well :-)

  2. I think this is cute. I haven't been overly anxious to get into the plaid skirt trend but this is inspiring me to try. I am featuring plaid in the upcoming Goodwill Huntingg Thrifting Guide magazine.

  6. You know you can rock anything and make it look glam!  Those shoes are cute too.  I don't think I am going to get into the plaids.

  10. I really like the skirt.  Your chic style, takes all the granny away!  Do you think a skirt that length will work on someone who is 5'2?
