A Boater Hat and Thrifted Finds :)

So I didn't end up ever finding a boater hat at a thrift store. I was about to give up on finding one anywhere when I happened upon the dollar section of Target. Right there between children's stickers and flimsy towels was the perfect boater hat! For a dollar!!!

Naturally, I had to wear it Sunday with some newly thrifted finds, so here's my outfit:

Boater Hat, Target ($1); Rayon White Button-Up, Salvation Army ($2.99); Blue Vest, F21, ($5 on sale); Cotton Capris, Goodwill ($3); Fringed Sandals, Goodwill Outlet ($2); Capezio Bag, Good Samaritan ($2); Shell Necklace, Diversity Thrift ($1) (<$20 Total!)

The rayon shirt, the striped bag, and the awesome fringed sandals are all thrifted finds from Saturday! And while I know I thrift a lot of purses, this is definitely my new favorite! I even added a vintage Coach bag strap to wear it across my shoulders :) Love it!

I hope everyone has a great day back to work today, and enjoy the shorter week! I know I will- it's almost vacation time!

Always,
Amanda

  2. This is too cute! I love the little boater with the knotted vest and cropped pants. You look like you should be rafting down the river in a Mark Twain story.

  3. Thanks! Alya- now that you say that, I totally agree! If only I didn't get sea sick :) But I felt really good in this outfit, too, and it was super-comfy!

  4. Ooo, I love it!!! I think this is my favorite outfit so far!! The vest, the bag, the shell necklace, the hat, everything is just perfectly summer! I saw those hats at Target the other day and I was very tempted. Maybe I will go back :)
