Plaid and All That Glitters…

I am a fall fanatic. I think I’ve put that out there so it’s no shock that I’m excited to wear fall gear! I have to admit, when your mind is on one season, transition can be hard even if you have this styling grainy down pact. I’m the first to admit that I love to shop but since I’ve been lately shopping my closet, when I do make a purchase the piece MUST either be one of a kind, thrifted or on clearance. 

I recently found this top I’m wearing and when I saw it I knew it was THE transition piece that I wanted to style for fall. I had seen this way top earlier in the year and fell in love but refused to pay the high price point for it. Actually I’d seen it on multiple sites and I prayed (not literally) that this top went on sale lol. So later on in the year about a few weeks ago, I checked a particular site on a hunch. Guess what?!! JACKPOT!!! I struck gold! This sucker was on sale!!! So I guess I sort of kinda believe that good things come to the patient. Well, I’m a go-getter so it has to apply to the situation lol. 

Anyhoo, this top is by BlankNyc and I got it from Saks Fifth Avenue for 30% off the $18 price! That’s the price that I see of some high end brand thrifted items! Dont be afraid to shop high end department stores. You simply must know how to shop, knowing off hand what you’re looking for. I put this shirt together with a pair of semi-destroyed jeans and a simple pair of sandals. Let me know what you think and if you’ve scored any sales lately!
