Lime Jacquard
Guys – I went thrift shopping and actually found something! I usually get frustrated when I try to shop at thrift stores because there’s always so much to go through and I don’t have the patience. Although this time I went to a vintage thrift shop so it was definitely well curated. And even though the clothes are used they are more expensive because they are “vintage”. Whatever – they are all used clothes to me!

I walked away from the vintage shop with this green jacquard skirt from the 1960’s and a silk scarf. (I wanted to get about 3 scarves but I held back!). I was really debating whether or not to get this skirt. I wasn’t sure if this green jacquard pattern was “in” or if I had any tops to go with it. But once I got back home I found this navy blouse that compliments it perfectly. I also like the mix of the small dot print of the blouse with the larger silver floral print of the skirt. So sometimes it’s good to take a chance on an item – especially if the price is right.
In other news I had some anniversaries going on this week! Jeans and a Teacup was started 2 years ago on May 21st and my 3 year wedding anniversary was yesterday! Woohoo! My husband and I aren’t doing anything crazy this week because we took a trip to Hawaii in March. We might go wine tasting this weekend and of course have a Memorial Day party on Monday. I hope you all have a nice long weekend!

What a great find – the fit & the pattern of the skirt are just perfection! Vintage shopping can be frustrating, but I do have 1 skirt that made years of failure worth it!
