The mauve sack dress with 3/4 sleeves is thrifted, the gold filigree frame necklace is thrifted (and for sale here now), the shoes were found on sale for $5 at Charming Charlie a few years ago. This classy ensemble altogether totaled less than $15. Moral of the story: go thrifting! Thrifting is the best way to find great clothes with lower prices and to reduce the amount of “throw away clothes” (and thus pollution) being produced. Plus it makes for a pretty unique closet. You can find all styles of clothes while thrifting! You can see the varied styles if you search through my style posts.
