Hey Chambray!

Dress/Boots/Handbag @mhthrift $17 Necklace @ebay $29

Hey girls hey! Spring weather, well actually feels of Summer weather, is among us here in the South and I’m  L O V I N G it! I’m finally being able to wear dresses without leggings, like this fun vintage Chambray denim dress. Hey Chambray! I pinned this #KylieJenner look way back when and have been wanting to recreate it. So here’s my thrifted take on it! Such a fun, casual outfit and the Squash Blossom teal necklace was a super fun way to add some color pop! Are you ready for Spring? 🌷 xoxo-Lynsie

Another Year, Another Vday!

Dress/Jacket/Shoes- @mhthrift {$20}

Welp, another year, another Vday aka another Holiday of Love! But honestly, let’s be real for a minute. If we really think about it, every day is Valentine’s Day.  Every day we are loved.  Matthew 3:17 says, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.“  Not only are we loved but He is well pleased with us! So this message goes out to all the singles out there. Don’t let Valentine’s Day make you feel like you aren’t loved. You are very loved, so much that God spoke this world and all of it’s beauty into existence and thought you were also important and beautiful enough to bring in it. Don’t let this one marked calendar day of the year bring you down. Every day you have someone to celebrate with. He is for you and He will never leave you nor forsake you. That alone is enough  to celebrate daily! Enjoy this season of singleness, because one day you might miss it! I don’t know how long your season has been, this might be your first Valentine’s Day “alone” or it might be your 3rd. But you go ahead and put on your best Valentine’s Day outfit and walk around proudly knowing that you are truly LOVED! xoxo Lynsie

Hey Everyooooooone! So, it’s been a while since I last blogged. I kind of needed a break! But, I have to say it feels great to be back at it! So let me jump right into this super fun winter lookbook shoot that I did for @mhthrift!  I always have so much fun finding #SimilarStyles to popular looks the thrifted way! These pictures clearly speak for themselves. I mean, 8 great outfits for $179? Yes please! I wanted to mention that the Bohemian Style 1 was the most expensive. But, I also want point out that the leather jacket I am wearing is a REAL biker leather jacket that was priced at $45. If the highest item in your outfit is one that is A. Genuine Leather and B. A re-usable piece for any outfit then I think it’s money well spent! Which one of these looks is your favorite Winter Style? xoxo- Lynsie

Change Is Good! 

Sweatshirt- @targetstyle {$7} Jeans- @targetstyle {$10 T-shirt/Flannel/Combat Boots- @mhthrift {$13.50} The older I get the more I realize that change is good... really good! Whether it’s a season change, life change, style change, or even a hair color change. Embrace the change! Depending on the situation it isn’t always easy... and actually change can be really hard and sometimes it’s not your choice. But hang in there, it will get better! And if it’s a change you chose to make, then be confident about that change! Because... Change. Is. Good.  With that said, I do not have more issues than vogue and I probably should’ve changed this sweatshirt to one that says something that is more true... but it was cold and it was comfy so this sweatshirt it was LOL!  Lately I’ve been loving a good oversized flannel tied around the waist. It’s so effortless and so fun. You should try it if you haven’t already! It will definitely be a repeat look for me this season! xoxo- Lynsie

Fall is FINALLY here! I am so thankful for season changes. I don't know about you, but halfway through the summer I was excited and ready for Fall! Slowly booties have made their way into each of my summer outfits,  including this one! If you live in a place where it stays warm for part of the Fall it’s hard to know what to wear to stay cool but still look seasonal. Girls, let me introduce you to long kimonos and booties. Get to know them well because they going to become your best friend! No, seriously! I’m OBSESSED! They make any Summer outfit look Fall! And what’s so awesome about the ones I’m wearing is that they were thrifted. So just know, you don’t have to spend a fortune to get a transitional Fall look! 

And while we’re on the topic of season changes... I’m thankful for life season changes as much as I am for weather season changes! Some seasons you are just ready to get out of!  I just wanted you to know that there is a time for everything and whatever you are going through will only last for a season! Happy Fall!! 💋🍁 🍂xoxo- Lynsie

Happy Tassel Tuesday! If that’s not a thing it should be!  Did you know that tassels are totes my favorite accessory… like ever? I’m obsessed! I’m actually scared to show you a picture of my collection for fear of serious judgement, so I’ll pass for now on sharing one with you! But I did want to show you this amazing Target Tassel Tote & Clutch set that just so happened to match my Express tassels, like so PERF! And I loved the way they both went with my mhthrift Aztec blue and white dress It’s always fun to wear a pop of color with some basic colors! Throw on some fun wedges like my mhthrift wood bottomed ones, and you’re good to go! 

Annnnd what better way to wear tassels than with your new instafriend? You heard me, INSTA as in instagram friend. This girl! Sandae, the beautiful face & heart behind Curvy Girl On The Run… I had the privilege of meeting her at our Chicago iglbloggers meetup aka #chitownigmeetup {<– look it up on instagram! } And we are seriously the closest friends now. It’s amazing how God has you meet people in the craziest ways! But I am very thankful we connected, because if you can’t tell in these pictures we have a blast together! We decided to be twinsies with our Target clutches {which by the way Sandae helped find them for me in her state’s Target because mine were all sold out!} and pose for some cute pics together.  What you don’t see is the weird staring faces all  around us, but we didn’t care! Sometimes fun requires not caring what other people think… if you’re happy & you’re having fun DO YOU!! xoxo- Lynsie

L.W.N, which stands for Love it. Want it. Need it and can I tell you...I loved it, I wanted it, I needed it, so I got it! When I stopped into their store in Chicago I feel so in love with their jewelry... which leads me to the jewelry I  have in in this pics! I so Loved recreating similar styles to other people wearing similar jewelry! And can I just say that I am completely in LOVE with their 360 Rose Gold Double Stud earrings that I am wearing in my pics?They range in price from $22-$36 for the fashion styles depending on color and finish. They are inspired by similar styles to Dior's double stud earring! Not to mention they are EVERYWHERE and so huge right now!  Then this awesome purple crystal wrap Slake bracelet, retailing for $36, but currently on promo for $28 (and will be for a while), they are comprised of a faux suede with austrian crystals and an adjustable rhinestone closure. Swarovski is selling a similar style for upwards of $70. So these are a GREAT way to get the look for less! I love a good brand that can help you get similar styles without paying a similar price! I’m ALLLLL about that! xoxo-  Lynsie

CHSFW- What I Wore! Polka Dot Top- mh-thriftfashion {$4} Floral Skirt- targetstyle {$5} Moschino Belt- mh-thriftfashion {$2} Metallic Heel Stilettos- mh-thriftfashion {$4.50} Hunter Bell Dress- mh-thriftfashion {$25} Pleather & White Blazer- TJ Maxx {$7} Both Clutches mh-thriftfashion {$4} First, can I say how awesome it was to represent His Radio & Miracle Hill for CHSFW? It gave me the opportunity to meet other fashion bloggers. I love connecting with other fashion lovers more than anything. It’s so inspiring and motivating when you meet people that do what you do and love doing it as much as you do! Like  Oh Nikka & Peaches in a Pod! {Pictured in Pic #3 left to right.} I could tell that they are passionate about fashion and style as much as I am! And not only did they all look super cute, but did you notice how we were unintentionally standing in stripes flowers order?! I love it! On top of meeting other bloggers, I also privilege of meeting other Emerging Designers like Mary Wutz creator of Seam Siren clothing line.  Let me tell you, so much talent under those tents! 

And now onto my OOTD for the 2 days I attended CHSFW. The first day I really wanted to mix patterns from this Spring and what better way to do that then all at once? I absolutely LOVED my target style​ Floral & Striped skirt that I picked up for only $5! Then I added some polka dots to cover all my patterns for the season. And obvi, I need to wear that $2.50 thrifted Moschino belt! The second day I really wanted to represent a fashion designer who was attending CHSFW. So, I went with this amazing mh-thriftfashion Hunter Bell Minnie Chiffon Printed Fit and Flare Dress that was originally $150 and I got it for $25! Sad news, I never got to show her in person. Good new,  I tweeted her the picture and she favorited my tweet. Let’s hope that was really her and she really was able to see her dress! Overall, CHSFW was amazing and I’m thankful for the time I got to spend there, the friends I made, and the friends I shares this experience with. So now, I want to know, out of the two outfits which one is your fave?! xoxo- Lynsie

PS. Be on the lookout for another post next week in continuation to this one… you didn’t think I’d skip posting the fashion that I saw there did you?! 😉

2 years and 4 months ago I packed up my stuff and moved to Greenville, SC. And I have to say, that was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Not only is there so much to do in Greenville, but it is filled with so many talented and entrepreneurial-minded people!  In styling, I have had the opportunity to connect with so many of them, whether it's makeup artists, makeup sellers, photographers, cake bakers, hair stylists, apparel creators etc. Greenville is full of so many good people that want to make a difference with their business!  And what’s cool is that not everyone in Greenville is from Greenville. I have met so many transplants who love and call Greenville home! To me, these are all things that make Greenville so GOOD! 

With that being said, I was beyond THRILLED to partner up with Greenville Goods and be there March Feature. What an honor it is to not be originally from here but to be still looked as one of Greenville’s own and to help another business grow! Help me help them and get yourself a Greenville Goods tee! Let them know why Greenville is good to you! You might be from here, or just moved here, or visited here. Whatever it is, one thing is clear... Greenville is GOOD!!- xoxo Lynsie
