Working Girl's Goodwill style

Another week of sharing my 'Goodwill Glamorous' clothes.  I link up to a few blog parties of everyday ladies and mom's wearing every day clothes.  It's fun and I'm gaining new ideas on ways to make these 'cheap' clothes into glamorous outfits, mostly for work.  Plus a few 'new to me' outfits is about all I've been thrifting lately as I am purging, merging 2 homes and we are just starting on makeover projects down on the Farm.  (We have been remodeling the office and I am decorating a little boy's room on a budget.  Hopefully I will be posting photos of that soon!).
We've enjoyed really warm temps, so I'm wearing more skirts! Here's what I wore this past week ~
Wednesday - Work (featuring my 'new' Italian leather shoes!)
Me and the barn kitty.
Ruffled blouse, The Limited via Goodwill - $1.99
Animal print skirt, Briggs NY; Goodwill - $1.99
Mudd cloth belt, Goodwill - $2
Pratesi Italian leather shoes I found last week at Goodwill - $4
Necklace, Goodwill - $3.73
I think this is my new Favorite outfit!
Thursday - Work
I love this skirt!  You can't see the beaded detail in it, but it rocks.
Turquoise blouse, NY&Co, Goodwill - $3.99
Peach cami tank, Old Navy via Goodwill - 99 cents
Maxi multi skirt, Soft Surroundings; Goodwill - $3.99
My standby black leather belt, Goodwill - $2.00

Multi bead necklace & bracelet, Kohls
No Friday photo - Worked a bit, then off early.  Did find a couple of adorable wood decor items for Booger Bear's room at a huge church yard sale.  It's a work in progress, coming up soon.
Monday - back to work

Sag Harbor dress, Goodwill - $5.49
Taupe T (under dress), Target - old
Tan NY&Co blouse, Goodwill - $2.19
Tan/leather belt, Salvation Army - $1.00
Comfy Italian leather shoes again, Goodwill - $4.00
Same necklace as last Wednesday, Goodwill
Tuesday - Work
My outfit to 'feature' a bracelet I WON from an AWESOME fashion gal, Dawn over at Creative Cain Cabin.  Excuse the wrinkles and tired looking me.  My office help is off enjoying a conference this week and this photo was made after work, after dinner, almost dark-thirty tonight.
GAP blue blouse, Goodwill - $2.20
Tan Slacks, George brand, Goodwill - $4.59
Jazzed up with a silk scarf, worn as a 'belt', Salvation Army - $1.00

A closer look at my new bracelet, which I love.

Need a giggle?

I have to share this little 'out take' photo of the week from tonight. 
Yep, that is Booger Bear in a t, undies and monkey water boots after dinner, cause that's how we roll down on the farm!  He was bringing me a leaf (aka 'flower') from the tree.  No worries, it was 86 degrees this evening!
I'm linking in to these FUN fashion parties: 
Check them all out for some great ideas on styling what you have in your closet or just drop in your local Goodwill or Salvation Army for mine.  ;-)

  1. Hey Sherri!
    I just wanted to stop by and Thank You for your sweet comment and participation in my very first "What I'm For" Wednesday!
    I thought I'd also tell you that I took your advice and decided to continue! I made a linky and EVEN created a button!! :)

    Also, I think it is so very honorable of your for taking the guardianship of "Booger Bear"!
    My memaw had a dog and we called him that, but some how his name always got shortened to booger! I wonder why!

    I think I'm going to try my very first "What I Wore" Wednesday tomorrow too!!!
    What an exciting week!

    See You Soon!

  6. Love your Goodwill style and their prices! I haven't bought new in years and love finding great looks at the thrift shops! I also refashioned a bunch of things from my own closet a few weeks ago and it was great fun!

    I agree- love wearing skirts in the summer! We are still in winter mode here in CO though it did warm up a few days here and there. Cold and rain due today so it is long sleeves, jeans and silky long johns under neath today!
