Reconnaissance: Sweaters in the Summertime

It's 90 degrees outside, and I'm in a thrift store looking at sweaters. I'm not crazy. You'll never know when you're going to find a diamond in the rough. This sweater I bought for $4. It's unlike anything I've seen before, and it was made in Romania. Maybe it's not the season for it, but people clear out their wardrobes at all times during the year. So while you're out at a thrift store, take a look at all the different departments. Save yourself the hassle of buying things in season when they cost more money and start planning early for the future.

Renewed: Sunny Delight

The color was what first attracted me to this sweater. It’s bright and playful. How could I possibly have a bad day wearing this? So I bought it for $3.99 and cut out the awful shoulder pads that were clearly cramping its style. I’m still deciding what to wear with it. Maybe some jeans, a white shirt and ballet flats will do the trick.
