Feeling like a Million Bucks.....

I think it's ironic that I can feel so good in something that literally costs 99 cents! Yes, remember this awesome dress I picked up from Canton Goodwill it only cost 99 cent and was new with tags, no price was indicated on the original tags though! Well, I finally got a chance to wear it and I felt absolutely amazing in it. Like I stated in my previous post about this dress, its a size 6 petite, but do you see just how it works for me?! Proving that we should all be trying our clothes on! :) I am a size 16...!

When I purchased this dress I knew I wanted to wear it with boots, but I wasn't sure how else I would style it. Once on, I knew I wanted to let the dress shine and keep everything else pretty simple around it, so I chose against belting it. I threw on a colored statement piece of jewelry, added my favorite black bag from A Girls Next Best Friend, and my boots from bakers. who-lah! You've got the perfect ultra flattering outfit.

I'm seriously hoping I can score many more dresses in this cut from my local thrift store! They are just perfect and seem like they are made just right for me.

P.S. I'm going to keep saying that you don't have to break the bank to look and feel like a million bucks! I am very cheap thrifty person and I love finding things on clearance or absolute scores like this dress! So ladies and gents for that matter don't be afraid to shop your local thrift stores, you'll be suprised what you can find!

  10. This dress is too cute on you! It was a total score at 99cents. The only way you could have beat that deal was to get it for free! LOL!

    I love the fact that you added the turquoise necklace for a pop of color. And of course, that "do" is on point!
