I LOVE the hat and your tights! I never even thought of looking for tights at a thrift store! Genius!

i ALWAYS look for tights and knee socks at the thrift store, you can find some really amazing ones because i think a lot of people forget to look. or maybe they are just grossed out by used tights? i dunno im kinda of laid back about that kind of thing and plus most of the tights i find are new still in the packages.

M. said...

gorgeous outfit as usual, congrats on working for aa! I would die for a spending allowance there, so lucky!

So beautiful! Once again I want to just skip summer and enjoy winter :)

Kennedy said...

Lovely lovely photos!

Gah! I've been searching everywhere for red nylons (olive as well), but to no avail. Some fashion jerk claimed they can be found in any drugstore around, but that is not the case as I have checked every one in the tri-county area!

Congrats on the job; I'm sure you were a shoo-in given that you're on the damn website!
