When Decor meets Fashion




I wish I knew where the image on the right is from but I don't. So sorry! As I was browsing the internet I came across the picture of the staircase and I instantly thought...what does that remind me of? It was driving me crazy, and then I realized that it reminded me of a skirt that I bought at Goodwill a few months before. So I took a picture and thought I would show you! Verrry intersting. Some fashion experts say to look around your home to see what colors inspire you and then add them into your wardrobe. Apparently that is what they meant!
I was reading a blogger's post on What I Wore Wednesday and she had that exact same JCrew skirt that she thrifted also! It kind of made me wonder if clothing has a certain "expiration date" before we donate it. I come across brand new clothing, last season's fashions, and then all the way back to 1970's polyester shirts and pants. Who would have guessed that a trip to Goodwill would make me want to do a research project on the psychology of clothing donations!

  1. Oh how true!

    My GW has upscale name brand clothing too, but I find that the private "charity" stores have designer clothing! I live in the Palm Desert area of Ca. and it is chock full of "upscale" people ;)

    Now I can't wait to get shopping... thanks. I think.
