This is more of my look in the winter. We live where it is COLD and so I layer. I love layers. These colors, teals and browns are also a staple of my wardrobe. Black washes out my pale-ness so browns are the neutral in my wardrobe.
Most people have certain things they look for in a thrift store: labels, intricate details, etc. I look for clothes in my color family: browns and grays, blues, greens and corals. That way I have a miriad of outfit options because everything generally goes with each other.

I look for brand name, color and fit. You look adorable as always. :O)
such a pretty outfit! I especially love the scarf!
LOVE the scarf!
How fun! I'm enjoying your frugal outfits. Where did you get your boots?
You look so pretty and stylish!
I too love your scarf, I love to wear neck scarves that are small as well with a top in the winter to keep my neck warm. I also wear pashmina scarves and crocheted scarves I have made that are long regular scarves as well. I am a scarves girl! I love your oufit, its very nicely pulled together, but still practical! great outfit!
Beautiful as always! I think you have a classic style. I usually stay away from browns (not always), but I love blues. Browns, yellows, and oranges tend to wash me out. I love black and pink and white and some off-white and I shop by color as well.

I love all of your outfits! They are exactly my style. Only, I have nothing like that. I haven't had much luck around here finding things at thrift stores.
You've encouraged me to keep trying though. You look beautiful! :)
beautiful outfit!
My daughter used to tease me because if someone complimented me on an outfit I always had to tell them how little I paid for it. Now she is catching the joy of furgal dressing.
Love the teal shirt with black shirt look, very chic!
Thanks everyone.
Farrah, I bought both pairs of my vintage boots (circa 1970's) from thrift and consignment shops. Both pairs are extrememly comfortable.
