Cute Outfit of the Day: Another Christmas Party Look

What if I told you I could put together a complete look for a holiday party for under $16? I know, I wouldn't believe it either! But here it is:

vintage Laura Ashley dress: Goodwill $4.99
earrings: Forever 21 $5 (last year)
purse: Goodwill $1.99
Colin Stuart shoes: Goodwill $3.99
Total Cost: $15.98

I love this vintage Laura Ashley dress so much! It's velvet, the off the shoulder is so elegant, and it's just timeless! 

Today I'm linking up with:

    Lindsey! my gosh! $16 bucks? stunning, absolutely stunning [price and look]. i loved the way you layed out the photos from close up to finally full shot. [i kept saying, "how long is this dress? where are the shoes?"] and then the full reveal. very nicely done.

    your skin is flawless, flawless.

    have you seen my comments here before? hi! i'm renae. a fellow follower that believes in thrifting to personal style is the only way to go.

    have a fab day, k? :D

    I bow to your thrifting ability. Oh. My. Goodness. I'm not sure what I like more; the dress, purse or your gorgeous hair! I'm taking a group out this Saturday for a thrift hop... we have about 20 gals. We call it Eat Thrift Love and we meet for coffee, hit 4 thrift stores, then meet for lunch to show off our finds. We have SO MUCH FUN. Wish you could join us! xoxo jules
