Fashionably Late | Easter Thrift & Chic Mix

Easter 7_2

A few simple articles of clothing, when mixed in an aesthetically pleasing manner, can go a long way.   I spent Easter with my family in a simple get-up.  Part thrifted, part #FabFound, part DIY.  Simple things.  Great look.

Easter 1_2

I decided to do the complete opposite in color composition from last year’s Easter outfit.  Instead of brights and pastels, I went for more rich colors.  The deep red of the top and mustard yellow skirt are complimented by gold and tan shoes and accessories.

Easter 2_2

Kimono shirts seem to be all the rave this season!  Continue reading for details.Easter 3_2I created the necklace with rope and a brooch.  DIY post coming soon.
easter outfit details

The outfit:

Kimono Top: Marshalls #FabFound ($16)

Plain white top: Ross ($5)

Skirt: Thrifted ($4)

Shoes: Payless Shoe Source ($20)

Necklace: DIY (materials cost <$10)

Easter 4I love the vintage look of the photos above, but here is a full color look.

Easter Throwback

Also, #throwback!  I love this photo.  I’ll probably post it every Easter =D

Preparing my holiday outfits is one of the best parts of any holiday season for me, and this time was no exception =)  What did you do to prepare your Easter or most recent holiday outfit, and what did you wear, darling?

Until next time, Ci Vediamo!!!

    I love your throwback picture! I remember wearing hats and gloves every Easter when I was a little girl. Love this year’s outfit, too! I have a mustard skirt that looks almost like yours. Thanks for giving me new style ideas.

      The throwback Easter styles were so much fun, Alli! Thank you, and you are most welcome. If you remember to, share your interpretation of this style with me (see the “Find Me!” At the end of the post) on any of those social sites =)

Do you reuse gift wrap? Here are some things that I’ve thrifted to reuse as gift wrap each holiday season: ⭐️ tablecloths ⭐️ napkins & handkerchiefs (matching napkins sewn together can be used for larger gifts) ⭐️ Scarves (like from @wrappr) ⭐️ Cloth bags (like the ones your sheet sets come in) ⭐️ Pillowcases ⭐️ Curtains (can be used as gift wrap or to cover larger gifts like bikes or toy kitchens) As long as you can fold the fabric into a square before wrapping the gift, it works well when using the furoshiki style wrapping technique. Comment WRAP for a few tips and tricks to wrap gifts in cloth fabric.

I miss my old clothes 😩🥺 especially those one of a kind thrift finds that I just couldn’t fit anymore, no matter how hard I tried it how long I held onto them. But I tried to find good homes for them 🥹💚 Do you miss some of your old items too?

A quick little toy clean out and swap for some new toys to place under the tree for Christmas ✅ @usefullco is a sustainable refill shop in Dallas, TX and this weekend they have a table out at their main shop for people to come in and swap toys! The toy swap table will be there through Sunday 11/17/24. Don’t have this in your city? HOST YOUR OWN TOY SWAP! All you need is a location and some parents who want to get rid of some toys (isn’t that ALL OF US? 🥴😂). I’ve hosted clothing and toy swaps with @thisyearelle, @tiyunnaj, @crunchymamadfw, and other friends in the past at my home and in their shop. Social media makes it easy to connect to parents and folks who want to swap. I also plan on reaching out to my local @buynothingproject Facebook group moderators this year to see if we can host a virtual toy swap in a post within our Facebook group. Just set the date, place, and time to make it happen. Spend less, use less resources, and still make the holidays merry & memorable 💚 Have you attended a swap event before?
