My sweet little fashionista is also my partner in crime when it comes to Thrifting! She loves going to all of the different 2nd hand shops and searching for "diamonds in the rough". I knew when she was very young (10mons) that she was going to be our "girly girl".  Well boy had I underestimated how true of a statement this really was!!!! She loves dresses, skirts, tu-tu's, glittery things...you name it! She has a ball looking through clothes at the thrift shops.  She always has a say when it comes to her OOTD(outfit of the day). Making suggestions and putting different pieces together...in fact with a little help this outfit was actually her idea!  

I love to allow my children to express themselves through their clothes, hair etc.(as long as it's age appropriate). She let's me know exactly how to style her hair so that she'll be pretty (her words lol).

She loves her curly natural hair and this makes me most proud!

As I was tucking her in bed tonight she asked me..."mommy can we go to the goodwill tomorrow because I need a new pair of shoes". My reply..."sure Cassidy now go to sleep". It's funny because I was thinking the same thing(laughs)!  Sweet Dreams...

                Happy Thrifting!💜

As I sit and reminisce on all of the ridiculous "fashion rules" I've been taught throughout my life... I realize I've turned into a bit of a "fashion rebel" (can I coin that term?) lol. Any who, I was taught  wearing white was strictly reserved for Memorial Day thru Labor Day...that's it! Anyone wearing white outside off those dates were commiting fashion suicide (laughs). 

Everything you wore had to match well...unless you were colorblind with no help getting dressed in the mornings. 

I discovered some time ago that there's quite a distinction between fashion and style. Fashion is a trend. What's "hot" and what's "not". Fashion is safe. It's easy to "fit in" and know that at least your wearing this seasons hottest trend! 

Style is a personality. This is your chance to really show the world who you are. You can tell a lot about a person just in the way they are dressed(mood, self esteem, etc.). Of course I'm generalizing here but for the most part I find this to be pretty accurate. Mix patterns. Wear your hair natural. Don't be afraid to take chances. Go against the "style grain"!  

Always remember... fashion fades only style remains the same -Coco Chanel
