I was so happy to be chosen as a Thred UP April Insta-gal because Thred Up takes all the thrill of resale shopping (i.e. treasure hunting) and puts it into the comfort of your own home. I settled in and searched for my favorite brand names like Trina Turk, Free People and Diane Von Furstenberg, at deeply discounted prices (think 78% off! DVF for 78% off!). I found the loveliest Trina Turk dress that made me giddy, for less than $60. That is 80% off retail and it is in like new condition.Read More
The embroidery trend is everywhere this spring. I’ve seen it on mesh tops and dresses, and I was able to find this gorgeous floral embroidered blouse for under $21. It has a tied bow in the back, collared top, and sweet ruffled sleeves.Read More
I’ve been wearing this spring sweater pretty much non-stop the past week. If you must know, I do own two (ivory and black) and I have washed it. It washed beautifully on delicate and an air dry. I’m sure it’s not technically a spring sweater, given it’s on sale on top of it’s sale price for under $53 (through Sunday), but it is going to be my spring sweater since we are in the 20s and about to get more snow.

Loving everything about these vintage inspired sandals and embroidered tunic. Not loving the current weather situation, but I was able to wear them both last week. The sandals are ridiculously comfortable with a cushioned footbed. It feels as if I’m wearing flats – but I am wearing the cutest addition to my closet. They have a block heel and extra tred (instead of a wood bottom), which makes them so easy to wear. I love the retro studded detail and black leather. They are on sale for under $56 (find them here) and also come in a natural tan color, as well as a slip on version without an ankle strap.Read More
This cozy thermal is meant for spring days when we go from 60 degree days to chilly rain (and possibly snow) the next. It’s perfectly draped with extra long sleeves and the softest fabric. You can find it for under $40 (some colors under $30!) and it comes in several colors. Grab one (or three) now – and even if your spring is warmer than mine, you’ll have them for fall and winter.Read More
This pretty pink scalloped faux suede skirt had me at the sweet scalloped edge, but the faux suede gives it just a little edge. The blush color and feminine cut are so gorgeous. You can pair it with a tailored top or an oversized sweater, and dress it up with over the knee boots or go casual with some sneakers.Read More
I really can’t get enough of this pair of overalls or the off the shoulder soft sweater I recently picked up. Everytime I’m out in my overalls I get compliments and inquiries as to where I found them. They are insanely flattering, comfortable, and not what you think overalls look like – curve hugging and a little sexy, and you can find them here (although my version is from last year and ever so slightly different – but I like the newer version better).

I’m so happy spring had arrived for .5 seconds in my neck of the woods – it was time enough for me to break out this gorgeous color block coat and leopard print tunic (a match made in heaven). It snowed today, but I’m not shedding a tear. I have a plan for me and for anyone stuck in a winter wonderland (or arctic tundra). You can also wear a long sleeved tee under this coat, and look cute, layered and completely put together with some cozy sleeves peeking out.Read More
Pink and orange is a combo not all of us would reach for, but it looks SO good together, and creates a gorgeous color blocking effect. This skirt with pink pleats is my favorite item for spring, and my silky orange top will look great paired with so many other outfits (+ it’s under $20!). My skirt is lightweight and has a silky feel too, and only $34.99. It is beyond gorgeous – both the color and the silhouette is flattering on just about everyone. Pleats are classic, and I’m so happy to have found them in this beautiful hue.Read More
