Cute Rainy Day Outfit Ideas With Rain Boots

April 6, 2022 by Katie H.

Cute Rainy Day Outfit Ideas

I never thought that I would ever own a pair of Hunter rainboots. I just didn’t think that they fit into my wardrobe, plus they are expensive. With all the April spring showers we have been getting here in Michigan lately, I have been thinking that a cute pair of rain boots might be the perfect addition to my wardrobe.

My Favorite Thrift Finds of 2021!

January 1, 2022 by Katie Haller

A round up of my favorite thrift finds of 2021
At the end of every year, I usually put out a post of my favorite finds from the previous year.  This year I am switching it up.  As I was going through my list of favorite purchases from the year, I realized that most of them were thrifted.  Instead of sharing them all, I decided to break apart the post and share a round-up of my favorite thrift finds of the year separately.  There were just too many good purchases from the year to narrow them down into one post.

9 Thrifted Teacher Outfits

August 9, 2021 by Katie Haller

 

 
Want to know what I think the best part of being a teacher is?  No, it’s not having summers off!  It’s the dress code!  I always feel like teachers have the best dress code!  That’s probably why I follow so many teacher accounts on Instagram.  It’s business casual, yet you get to be a little more creative than other workplaces.  I know that when I was a teacher, I always looked forward to what I was going to wear to work.  I always had fun with my outfits.

10 Clothing Items to Buy at the Thrift Store

February 22, 2021 by Katie Haller

Thrift store fashion

People often tell me that they love my thrift finds, but they never find anything good at the thrift store themselves.  I totally get it.  Thrift shopping can be intimidating at first.  It is a skill you have to learn.  You can’t expect to walk into a thrift store with one thing in mind and find exactly what you’re looking for.  You have to keep an open mind when thrift shopping.  What I found out is that nothing beats the price you pay at a thrift store and once you find that perfect thrift find you will be hooked!  There is something for everyone if you are willing to take the time to hunt for it.Read more

As you already know, I’m a lover of thrift shopping.  I love the hunt and the feeling I get when I find the perfect piece for me at the perfect price.  It gives me goosebumps. Well, my thrift shopping days have been on hold for the last couple of months ever since Coronavirus showed up.  Way back in early March, late February I was in contact with Goodwill of Greater Grand Rapids on doing a sponsored post with them.  My plan was to share how you can find affordable maternity outfits at Goodwill.  Well, that idea fell through because by the time stores opened back up here in Michigan, I wasn’t pregnant anymore.  That’s why today, I’m still going to do my post, but this time it’s going to be about thrifting the perfect postpartum clothes at Goodwill.Read more

March 2, 2020 by Katie Haller

4 ways to style one dress- from summer to fall
 I’m so happy that it’s March and spring is near, but here in the midwest it still feels like winter.  I don’t expect spring weather to get here any time soon.  That’s why I thought I’d do a blog post today on stying a new dress in my wardrobe for both winter and spring.

I wasn't sure what to post today. I was debating b I wasn't sure what to post today. I was debating between a picture or a reel, but then I found this picture on my camera roll and I couldn't resist. My little photo bomber is always trying to make her way into my photos. 😜

They aren't sick enough to be sick, but feel yucky enough to be whiny and clingy. Hopefully it will pass soon. For now, my lap is the most popular seat in the house.
