Sharing more of my summer outfits because (1) it’s still summer and (2) they are cute and worth posting.

This crochet dress is @loft from last year but there are an abundance of them on Poshmark if it’s something you fancy. The ruffled straw bag was a @tjmaxx find.

To be fair, it’s still a big maybe.

First time at a polo match for @annaavella_‘s bachelorette! If you can beat the heat, it’s such a fun time, lots of people go all out for the polo theme and tailgate all day.

I wore this dress to work. No one said a word.

The only @reformation I’ve ever felt was worth the price (but you know I got it secondhand anyway)

Happy 4th of July!
Had a fun day in mystic with @however_iatethis and @twee.phan and @zackotravels

Grabbed coffee at @sift_bake_shop and dinner at @laplagewestport while soaking up the heat.

May 13th.
Wandering around Essex and checking out @noahs63main in anticipation of my sister’s bridal shower. The peach salad was delicious. Why we didn’t choose that to have at the shower is one (of a few) regrets of the day.

Pulled out my Calypso St Barth printed leather jacket that hadn’t seen the light of day in quite a few years. It’s fabulous and deserves to be worn more, but it’s a statement piece and leather jacket season is short.

Other than the belt which is new from tjmaxx (looked like a sezane dupe for $30) everything else is thrifted.

Leather jacket season in Connecticut is nearly as short as blossom season - especially in that I’m posting these photos and both times have passed. While the past few weeks have been a weather rollercoaster, creeping up into the 80°s only to then plummet to the 50°s, it would appear the days of denim and extra layers are coming to an end.

(Literally almost everything thrifted from @thredup)

At least the blooms in the photograph will never fade.

I’ve heard rumors the town is going to tear down the elementary school behind me, the school I attended, a beautiful, historic building… because nothing is worth preserving in this country. What will become of these cherry blossom trees? Hopefully this won’t be the last year I get to take photos here.

For a second I thought maybe this spring was feeling like it was moving slower than usual, but then realized it’s nearly halfway through May, and I’m the one who is moving slowly.

🌸🌸🌸 Spring statements 🌸🌸🌸

Because it’s been far too long since I’ve worn this linen leopard coat, and I thrifted this fabulous green Paloma Picasso bag at the start of winter and it’s been waiting patiently for spring.

Jeans are new from Loft, after trying and failing to find secondhand cream jeans that fit and weren’t stained I gave in and got these. I ordered 4 petite (what I consider to be my usual size) and they fit perfectly, which is a surprise because you never know with Loft.

Flower photos will continue for as long as I can sustain and the weather cooperates.

Wooster Square in bloom!
Always my favorite time of year, and this year Mother Nature decided to turn the temperature up to 80° (supposedly will be back to 60° tomorrow, but I’ll enjoy it while it lasts).

My birthday treat for myself this year is this fun @bananarepublic vest, paired with a satin maxi, @coach bag, and vintage bangles.

Get out there and enjoy the blossoms!

Another one goes by….

Thanks for celebrating with me

Anyone else have a full on existential crisis before their birthday?

Took a little drive in a winter wonderland, just to make sure the Subaru could handle it.

Three days until Christmas, haven’t finished shopping, haven’t wrapped anything, and the optimism I felt at the start of the month about having a more enjoyable holiday season has all but passed.

Nevertheless, on that first weekend of December, I had a lovely dinner @artisanwesthartford with @however_iatethis and then we went to the Delamar hotel lobby to take photos.

A very merry thriftmas to me!

After lots of fruitless searches for “brown scarf” on @thredup (500+ results) I somehow managed to find the missing scarf to my coat! It was only $8.

Don’t ask me how I managed to sift through all those listings and notice the one scarf that had a button hole, the key to my search. This was months after I bought the coat too.

So the coat is now complete and might I say, completely fabulous.

Gloomy fall has arrived.

The leaves are mostly gone, the sun limits its appearances, it’s not freezing but it’s raw.

Obviously I snapped up this green suede Coach bag from @sarahscupboardthriftshop because when it comes to shopping secondhand, non-buyers remorse is always worse.

Everything secondhand!

Used my lunch break to take outfit photos because it’s dark by the time I leave work now.

Was last Saturday the last warm day of the year? Let’s hope not because I have so many more leather jackets I still want to wear 🙈

After briefly toying with the idea of waking up at 4:00 a.m. to try and get a Starbucks bear tumbler, I realized I didn’t have that in me and would have to deal with missing out.

But the thrift gods granted me an adorable vintage bear, which I immediately washed and brought to Starbucks. The baristas all loved it.

Have the mums you bought a month ago and put on your porch died yet?

Ours are definitely looking a bit sad compared to this former glory.

Loving these @bananarepublic everywhere ponte pants - they are cropped which means perfect when you’re 5’1”!

A gourd-eous fall display

Last season’s Banana Republic wool coat, retail $350, thrifted $47 (sadly was missing the detachable scarf and that is a travesty)

J.Crew cashmere sweater, retail $168, thrifted $30

Banana Republic suede midi skirt, this season’s version $500, thrifted vintage @bananarepublic, $15

Louis Vuitton bag, no idea what it retailed for, thrifted for $500

Thrifted heart charm I added to a chain, probably $3

Getting to enjoy fashion that would otherwise be unattainable, priceless.

Pieces collected from @thredup, @therealreal, and @sarahscupboardthriftshop

Banana Republic silk dress for a fall work look

An evening at the aquarium

The days for short sleeve cashmere might be numbered, but it didn’t stop me from falling for this cardigan at Marshall’s

Time to get the mums and pumpkins and it will officially be fall.

(That and it was 55° and dark by 6 p.m.)
