Girl: S let me see what you are wearing?
I stand up or take off my coat to let girl see my outfit.
Girl: Ugh!!! S!!! (she yells)
Me: ... ya?
Girl then does some sort of eye-rolling/dismissive gesture so I will leave her presence.
So here's what I am guessing is going on: A) she thinks my clothes are ugly (of course I really don't care), B) she thinks my clothes are just weird and entertaining (again, don't care), or C) she is totally jealous that I can find some pretty rockin' items of clothing for mere pocket change, and that is what she is "ugh"-ing about.
Let's go with that one.
Here are a few more of those cheap cheap cheap pretty outfits based on the one and only gingham shirt, which is EVERYWHERE right now, and as a matter of fact, is sold at Anthropologie for $78.00 (we got ours for $4.79 at Old Navy).
{blazer- DI $8; belt- Kohls free-ish (came with $4 clearance pants); pants- Aeropostale $10; shoes- ROSS $9.99 in 2005}
{sweater-F21 18.99; belt-Kohls $2.99 ; jeans-Old Navy 7.99 ; boots-F21 21.99}
{blazer- DI $8; skirt- DI $4; shoes- ROSS $9.99 in 2005}
Now, I don't think these prices are anything to get mad about. And if she wants me to teach her how its done, all she has to do is ask. I'd be glad to help.

LOVE the gingham shirt! Might have to get down to old navy this weekend!

Of course I think that it is C) .. how can you not like those outfits?! (well she can dislike them.. but probably because she has got not sense of style right?) :) x

Just Better Together is having a giveaway!
Cute outfits! I share your love of a good bargain. I have a collection of leather belts that I snagged for just $1 that originally retailed for upwards of $40! Ever since I discovered thrifting, I've never looked back.

ReplyDeleteBetter Than A Milk Mustache
Hey! I just saw that you posted to Everybody, Everywear. Thanks! It looks great and it drew me to your blog - which is super cute! And, yes, that coworker is totally just jealous!
ReplyDeleteThere was a glitch in the system (trying to get it all worked out for stripes tomorrow), so we might have gotten the wrong picture. Please feel free to go back and check/change it if you need to.

I TOTALLY know those kinds of coworkers. I know them, but I don't understand them. You look fab in all this gingham greatness but my fave is the heart sweatervest!
ReplyDeleteGreat to meet you, ladies!!
I love the gingham shirt with the blazer and red skirt. So cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for fixing that Linda!!!
ReplyDeletejust found your blog today and I'm going back through your old posts (because I'm a creepy stalker that way). You've got mad "deal-finding" skills ladies!!
ReplyDeleteOh and I hate coworkers like that! She's definitely jealous that she doesn't have a unique style of her own.
Just found your site, love it! You have great style. Shame on that co-worker of yours, looks like she drank some haterade that morning.
ReplyDeleteThat co-worker experience: crazy-sauce! I'm always hearing stories about girls/women who act like that, and it just boggles my mind. In any case, yay for the gingham shirt! I got mine at Old Navy as well, though I bought it full price ($19 - still better than a lot of the other options out there!). I hope it will last for many years to come.
