 5 DAYS, 5 DRESSES

Monday: My new vintage coat. 3/4 sleeves and flouncy dress sleeves
Dress #1; black and white floral pattern

Tuesday: black and white dress with circles.

Wednesday: black and white dress with a black knit cape. I couldn't get a better shot of this one, the lighting outside sucked.

Thursday: Black and white dresses with squares

Friday: black and white dress with dots. The pattern made us dizzy. That's my story and I'm sticking too it.

5 black and white dresses on a black and white floor. Except for Thursday's dress, all the clothes were thrifted. Thursday's dress was from Ross's and was $15 or $20. The most expensive second hand piece was the vintage coat which was $11.75.  So for under $100, I got 5 outfits. Take Bella Q's pledge to shop second hand first, as you never know what you'll find! PS: I have 2 more black and white dresses, but next week I'm wearing color!

  6. I love black and white! I looove those flouncy sleeves!
    Dots/spots make me dizzy too!

    Darl, "op shop" is short for Opportunity Shop, which I suppose refers to the opportunity to pick up a bargain?! Mostly run by church charities here, occasionally by women's refuge or the Cat's Protection league or various other chariable institutions! I love local vernacular, which is why I pointed out that in NZ, I opshop, in the USA, I thrift!
