Lazy Greatness

Real Housewives of Atlanta is on right now and I'm about to go downstairs to get a homemade chocolate chip cookie. This is a good Sunday night. The only thing missing is my fiance. (Fun fact : I just spent roughly three minutes trying to figure out how to make an 'e' with an apostrophe on it for 'fiance.')

Now, to add to the great laziness of my Sunday night, some blogging!

Sometimes my family and I go to church on Saturday evening and I don't always feel like getting dressed up for it. Lately when I think, "Ugh, let's just put on jeans and a shirt" I'll stop and make myself put in time to look nice. I don't have to look fancy, but I need to shop my closet more. This is exactly what I did on Saturday for church.

OUTFIT OF CHOICE
Dress : Isaac Mizrahi Live! // Thrifted
Long Sleeve Shirt : Old Navy
Boots : Thrifted
Tights : I have no clue where or when I bought these.
Necklace : Recycled Rooster // Vintage ($15)

The necklace I have on is amazing!! It's needlepoint with a flower on it and it has a mirror on the back.  A new consignment shop opened up in our town and it's pretty awesome. It's called Recycled Rooster and it has a mix of vintage and newer clothes. I'm used to thrift store prices so when I saw the prices on some of the items, I was a little shocked. However, most of the stuff was decently priced. Along with my necklace I bought Betsey Johnson deer earrings and a pair of pants from Wet Seal. I got the pants for free, so I only spent $30. I wish I could have purchased everything that caught my eye, but I couldn't. There was a pair of shoes there that were green and done similarly to needlepoint. They had cute daisies all over them and I wanted them so badly! But they were thirty-something dollars. Then I found a Lilly Pulitzer dress with elephants on it and it was my size, which was amazing! But that was also a little more than I wanted to spend, $34. You can see the pattern of the dress on my Instagram. I asked the lady if I could put it on hold and come back to trade items for it. I might have to do that with the shoes, too. They were just that amazing!

Sorry I wrote so much. I guess I'm in a talking mood.
