thrifting


TGIF ready for the weekend.The weekend is my favorite time to do a little thrifting and estate shopping.It's  so hard when I do this,because I always have an urge to buy for myself..a big no no.I'm on a hunt for vintage kelly bags this trip.I'm a big fan of vintage kelly handbags.Check out some of my collectible kellys above.I will add a few of these beauties to my shop Vintage Arm Candy. It's already April now, I'm way behind in the grand opening,its taking longer than I thought to get up and running.That's ok because it gives me more time to shop around.

white out

Bazaar April 2011

Spring into Spring in all white.The color white is trending for Spring 2011.Most people often shy away from white because they believe its harder to keep clean and makes you look bigger.I love the color white because its so versatile,you can pull off so many different looks with white.You can wear white on white or wear it with black,gold and bright vibrant colors...its up to you.So don't shy away from white this season,with the right cut,fit and style anyone can pull of this shade..no matter what size you are.White is so refreshing and perfect for spring.

stripes... trend watch

Ladies if you have any stripes in your closet,its time to pull them out.Stripes are back in a big way.Shop your closets,thrift stores and department stores,for bold bright colorful stripes.I'm glad I kept a few of my stripe pieces...because when it comes to fashion, something old is new again.

riding in style

Hi readers I've been Mia for about a week,so happy to be back.I've been quite busy,because I'm on spring break.My break has consisted of working my business, relaxing and attending some local events.The next thing on my agenda  is squeezing in a little time to workout.I plan to get the old bike rolling for a fun workout...with that in mind a cute outfit would definitely come in handy.
