Princess Sparkles is very excited because next month she will get to be the flower girl in my cousin's wedding. I asked her what she will be doing at the wedding and she told me "dance." You see, since Princess Sparkles has been able to walk she's been dancing at weddings. She can go all night and she really loves dancing with the bride and groom!

| Sparkles in her flower girl dress |
Today is a very Thrifty Thursday since it's "Thursdays are for Thrifters" over at Spunky Chateau and "Thrift" day for Everybody, Everywear. They're making it easier for me since they have the same theme and I don't have to worry about combining challenges.
I decided to wear my thrifted Ralph Lauren gingham shirt with white jeans and a sweater. I was so excited when I found this shirt because I love gingham and the bright blue color is perfect for year-round wearing. And it's petite which means the sleeves actually are the right length!
Anyway, I love thrifting. There's no bigger high than finding a treasure for a really great deal. And for a shopaholic like myself, thrifting is a budget friendly way to do what I enjoy and not go broke! Even Princess Sparkles likes thrifting, though probably not quite as much as dancing at weddings!

So classy! I would definitely wear the whole outfit!
I love the shirt.

I'm with Sparkles - I love dancing at weddings!
Great outfit!!!! I just love that gingham with the blazer...such a perfect pair!! You look fantastic!!
what a crisp classic summer/fall outfit! (depending on if you care about the no white pants after labor day) would be great with a red top as well!
i am still coughing but am on the mend, have been sick for a week and a half. had the full on flu for 4 days, miserable
i look forward to seeing your daughter in her cute flower girl dress!
I think Princess Sparkles and I would really get along--dancing is my favorite thing to do at weddings too, much to my husband's dismay! That shirt is an awesome find--it looks so classic and cute with the white jeans!
I love your thrifted gingham shirt! I really like it paired with the white jeans too.
Thrifting is a thrill for me too. It's like a huge adrenaline rush to find that perfect thrifted ite!
That's so cute about Princess Sparkles :) She will be a great flower girl!
I love those white jeans! The layered tops look really great together too.
Dancing at weddings is the best! Love the gingham as well - I wish I had some in my closet....

Gingham frickin' rules. Forrrrreallllzzzz. It's preppy without being overbearing.
I wish you could teach me how to thrift. I have no patience and no skills. Because I'm lame. I just want to walk into a Nordstrom, see everything laid out beautifully, and take my time going through the racks of organized clothes.

Thrifting is the best thing for all shopping addicts. Great find with the Ralph Lauren blouse. I love the nautical theme you have going on. Very cute!
Do you know what pleased me most about your post? It's the cardigan and the fact that it is maternity wear. I like the roominess of maternity wear and wore much of mine for a long time after my babies arrived.
Obviously, P.S. Will be wearing her sunglasses down the aisle, yes? They just work so well with her flower girl dress :)
Wow, this is so classy! You look great :) I love gingham...
i like your clog :) anyway check mine if you have a chance :)

I agree, thrifting is so much fun...love your gingham shirt. Great outfit :)

I love the gingham shirt, it's a great buy! I like how you fold the jacket to reveal the sleeves, clever! You look absolutely chic! I wish I have girls who can be flower girls, dressing up is so much more fun!
