Curlybyrdie Chirps: March 2019

Hello, Lovelies! Here we are another Sunday night or should I say Monday eve? I am always amazed how quickly the weekend passes by it's like you are trying to fit an entire week of things that need to be done in 2 days.

I am so excited that we are officially in Spring season even though Mother Nature hasn't really got the memo in Indiana but I know it's on its way. I love this time of year the anticipation of sunny days and warmer temps make this girl get excited. Now is the time when you are can think about pretty floral dresses, cropped pants, and lighter materials and I am here for it.

Nothing says spring to me quite like classic black and white. There is nothing more chic or classy than the monochromatic look of black and white.

My favorite line at Target is the Who What Wear line. So when I checked out their latest release I was drawn to this dress(here). The striking contrast of the black and white and then these fabulous sleeves had me at "Hello"

Even though the calendar says it's spring the temps in Indiana are not quite reflecting that so instead of sandals I decided to add these gorgeous booties (here) that are two-toned and that I am totally obsessed with.

The flattering silhouette and soft material make this the perfect dress for almost any occasion and at such a great price point which makes it even better.

I added this black and white tassel necklace that I scored for $2 at a local store right here in Fort Wayne and my little trendy Steve Madden bag that was a deal on Amazon.

Check out the links of items in this look and also some of my other favs in all different sizes.

As always I want to thank you for stopping by it means so much to me. What spring trends are you loving? Comment below and let a girl know.

XOXO Mary aka Curlybyrdie

Hello, Darlings! I am really trying hard to put my head around the fact that it almost Spring. Oh believe me this girl is ready but man where did the last 3 months go?

So when this Fashionista thinks about the upcoming season change the first thing that comes to mind, of course, is revamping my wardrobe and doing so without breaking the bank. There is no better way to accomplish that than thrifting. In the last few years, not only myself but my entire family have developed a love for thrifting and amazed at the things that we have found. I mean the perfect day for my sisters, my Mom and I is starting the day with a Pumpkin Chai Latte from Firefly Coffee House and heading out for a half-price day at the local Goodwill!

When I was introduced to this idea of a Blog hop all about thrifting this Fashionista was all on board. I mean what is more fun than collaborating with your gal pals and getting even more inspiration. What I love about this hop the most is that I have had the pleasure of meeting all these ladies at Fashion panel and have love and appreciation for them all. Don't worry if fashion is not your thing then there will be some great home decor ideas as well.

One of my favorite things to thrift are handbags and those gorgeous floral bags are a must for spring and summer and when you find one for only $4 compared to $25 or more I truly feel like I am winning and adding a crochet top is like boho perfection.

If you are looking for key pieces for your wardrobe such a blouse than the thrift store is where you should be. The perfect way to build that office wardrobe up and under $4 but in this case it's half off because yellow happens to be the color of week oh yes!

Or perhaps you like a black and white blazer and adding pop of color for a total of $9 for a great update to your look.

After the purses, the next rack I am checking is the dress rack. I have found some amazing dresses for awesome prices so much so that is difficult for me to go back to department store prices

I mean when you are able to find chambray dresses which I love for the spring season and they are a brand name for only $6 paying regular department store prices gets less appealing.

So much Spring inspiration and for amazing prices!

What if I told you that little foursome of spring items only totaled $12? Even better the skirt is NWT from the Who What Wear collection!

This complete look aside of the jeans was compliments of my local Goodwill

Jacket $6

Pumps $4

Bag (St.John) $14

Levi's Denim Shirt -$2

Express Scarf - $2

This vintage blouse complete with shoulder pants caught my attention right away. I love when I find a blast from the past and make it my present! Man, I need a tee-shirt that says that!

Blouse -$10
Dune London Purse $15 - Poshmark (my new obsession)
Pumps- $4

Even better than the prices is the chance to get more creative with your wardrobe and the prices give you that flexibility.

Now let's take a look at all the thrifting inspiration that my friends are giving! Check out the links to their posts below!
