| New-to-me Goodwill skirt |
I found this skirt at my local Goodwill and there are still some things I just can't get over while I'm in there. EVERY time I've been in there I've experienced:
- A Von Trapp sized family of screaming children that all seem to belong to the same family. I realize it is cruel and unusual to leave a gaggle of children in the car during the summer, but it is annoying to have to listen to each of your eight kids should crying, shouting and carrying on!
- A shopper that wants to be in my exact location at all times "C'mon, pick a different isle or section until I've had a chance to browse this 2ft section... yes you! Move along!"
- A man in the women's shoe section in serious contemplation over a pair of shoes - "Are you buying shoes for yourself? Or does your wifey trust you to bring home a fabulous pair of shoes for her from the Goodwill?"
- The smell! Does a person ever really get over the smell of a thrift store? I'm beginning to think I should stick coffee beans in my nose while browsing to neutralize the "thrift store stink."
When I got dressed in the morning, I left the black and pink layered tank tops untucked. When I got home I decided to see what it looked like with them tucked in... I will be going with the look on the right next time. I feel like the look on the left draws a little more attention to my mid section. The look on the right shows off the different pattern on the waist of the skirt and I think it looked a little more polished.
This way or that way? What do you think? To tuck, or not to tuck?

ReplyDeleteThink "that" family makes their rounds at all the thrift shops! Pretty sure I've scene them every time!
Tucked looks so much better
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this skirt, it's such a fun look! What a great find. I agree with the other commenters- tucked is the way to go!
ReplyDeletedefinitely tucked in! you could add a skinny black belt in the center of the waist band to give it the feel of an obi too!
