That 70's Show

I saw the print of this skirt peeking out from the racks at a local Goodwill.  Picked it up and just knew I HAD to have it!  This is a quintessential 70's print, shape (triangle maxi) AND fabric (polyester).  It is very high-waisted on me, as it barely fits the narrowest part of my waist. I paired it with this thrifted ruffled peasant blouse and a thrifted wool fedora.  I added a chain necklace to accent the topper. Since I wear it as often as possible, I jazz it up with scarves, brooches and chains.

 I thought huge hoop earrings layered chain necklaces and chunky platform booties were just the right accouterments for this ode to the 70's look. This look (minus shoes) cost me a total of $15!!!

Hey friends! Where do I start...This has been a rough week for me.  Many obstacles have reared their ugly heads.  Leading me to question my quest in life.  I'm considering a big move and deep in thought about other decisions.  Be that as it may, today, I threw caution to the wind and say to myself, "Ya know what! Dust yourself off and get to doing what you love!" which I took to mean play dress up in my thrifts lol.  And this was the result!
