Already Pretty outfit featuring camel suede blazer, plaid shirt, skinny jeans, Frye Vera Slouch boots, Marc by Marc Jacobs Hillier Hobo

Blazer – thrifted – similar
Plaid shirt – thrifted - similar

Fake socks – DIY’ed
Boots - Frye Vera Slouch
Bag - Marc by Marc Jacobs Hillier Hobo via eBay
Necklaces – thrifted – similar pearls – similar silver
Earrings – gift – similar

This blazer and shirt were both thrifted around my birthday in a haul that yielded many new faves. I’d been hoping to add a camel blazer to my (mostly thrifted) blazer stash, and this faux suede one is completely perfect.

Have you scored any fun thrift finds lately? What are you hunting for these days?

I thrifted a real suede camel blazer yesterday! Serendipity! I have been looking for clothing/accessories that fall into the neutral, tan, beige range.

My best and most recent find is a Marc Jacobs Blake handbag.

Great cut to that blazer- and the color works well with that plaideriffic shirt. Best of all though is your lipstick- I love the bright berry color- perfect to warm up a winter’s day.

Love this outfit. I finally know how I can wear camel without looking all washed out! The socks peaking out from the boots are a nice touch.

Great casual look against the snow, Sal. Today I thrifted a black linen Ralph Lauren top that I cannot wait to wear — that’s a good sign, right? : >

The Goodwill in Minnetonka by Ridgedale. I make a weekly stop there. Always find wonderful name brand clothing and tons of high-end purses. Very reasonably priced.

I love the socks peeking out of the tall boots as an “accessory”/matching item! I do that quite frequently to jazz up my staid winter wear :)

Today I thrifted a fantastic black & white polka dot shirt in a 6x. I’m going to take it in and make it into a fantastic skimmer for spring! :-D I’m thinking about adding hot pink grossgrain trim.

I found a Calvin Klein wrap top on half price day for $2.50 and a pair of plaid ponte pants (or at least I think they are ponte- I’m just now learning that term thanks to your posts).

I’ve been looking for a vintage wool skirt, jeans and corduroys, but without any luck.

Echoing the love for this outfit, especially the boots. Those boots are awesome!

I’ve actually never been thrifting before, but I do plan on hitting up the nearby Goodwill sometime soon. I’ve even got a few ideas for what to look for, such as solid color tops and dresses. I never noticed it until I took inventory a few weeks ago, but I have a lot of printed tops and skirts and few solids. Oh, and colorful shoes, I needs me some colorful shoes :)

Awesome outfit. As for thrift finds, I went on Thursday and found a Bebe angora sweater for under five dollars. I’m wearing it today, actually.

Your post made me smile. I’m dying to thrift a beautiful plaid flannel shirt to style with my tulle skirt, and skinny jeans. You look stunning as always.

Where’s a good thrift shop when you need one ?
This is a great find and you wear it like a queen ;)
