Foxy Brown

Hi There!

Picture this. You're perusing the aisles of your favorite thrift store.  You see a lady checking out a fabulous chocolate brown leather coat - the one you've been dying to find. You size her up knowing A) It won't fit her and B)  She sooo won't do it justice. You linger... silently pray... and then plot on how  to trip her up, snatch it and run when suddenly comes to her senses and puts it back on the rack! You profess your love to Jesus and move in for the kill. The leather is butter soft -just like you'd imagined. You slip her on and she fits! You check the price tag and it reads $20. She's so worth. You get to the register and it rings up $10. Sigh. That...was a good day.

Now, did you guys enjoy Beyonce's Half Time performance as much as I did?? Yes, I'm a Beyonce Fan! The gilr is fierce! Kinda like my sis and this fab blouse she thrifted at least a year ago.

It's A Celebration!

Hey There!

Today is pretty special. Not only are we paying homage the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. -we also get to witness history being made with the Inaugural Celebration of our 57th President,  Barack Obama. Oh how I wish my family and I had joined many others who traveled to D.C. this weekend to be a part of this incredibly inspiring time!  Maybe next time, when my nephew becomes the 2nd African-American President...I'm claiming it!

Today, I think the sis was going for Michelle Obama fierce and fly. Doesn't she look First Ladyish ?? She found this super cute cardigan and skirt from one of our favorite thrift stores, Family Thrift.  Loving the detailing on the front of the cardigan and the skirt- which is Forever 21 by the way- was just the perfect style and color to compliment the look.

Check it out:

Cardigan| Family Thrift $3.99
F21 Skirt| Family Thrift $2.99

Lunch Break Goodies!

Hi there Fab Divas!

After my short trip but successful trip to the Goodwill this weekend, I decided to hit up another Goodwill near the J-O-B on yesterday. I didn't have much time to look around but I was able to snatch up the cutest lil Michael Kors loafers for my niece. I don't know about you, but that's what I'd call a fabuless find! Check it out!
