I have an announcement to make... I am going to be a grandmother! And I'm not even going to be a grandmother of 1 but 2 little babies (not human babies either, but a cow and a rhino). Yesterday morning Princess Sparkles came to me with her plush cow stuffed in her dress telling me she had a baby in her belly. Then five seconds later, Pigtails came running in with a little figurine in her shirt too (the rhino), only she has to hold it in there with her hands because it's so little! I'm just so proud!

I wanted to wear something thrifted today so I could link up to Spunky Chateau's "Thursdays are for Thrifters." Do you ever get stuck because you try and plan an outfit around one piece? Sometimes I even plan around a pair of shoes, especially if they're new. I actually started out with a different thrifted shirt, but after NOT being able to figure out what to wear with it I went with this shirt that my mom thrifted for me. I wore my go-to white jeans because, well, I was so discouraged after my first outfit dilemma that I couldn't figure out what else to wear!
The outfit turned out fine, I think. Though I have to say it's sometimes hard to photograph loose trapeze tops like this because they have a tendency to look shapeless. I think it helped to put that black cardi on. But although this shirt has plenty of room, unlike Princess Sparkles and Pigtails, I will never ever be stuffing anything in it!

I think you did a fantastic job styling this trapeze top! They're not easy to style in my opinion! The last time I wore that yellow one, I tucked it into my skirt. You could try to belt it if you wore it alone and create some what of a 'peplum' waist but then I'd suggest skinny jeans. This was just perfect the cardigan added the perfect touch! Congrats...lol!
Sweet look! Love the blouse. This is so sleek and clean. White jeans are where it's at in the blog-o-sphere it seems.
Also you had me do a double take as I scrolled down~! I thought both your little ones were well... little. Too cute.
How sweet!! Congratulations "Grandma"! ;)
Hahaha awwww how adorable!!! :D

Yes, I know what you mean about trying to plan a look around one piece. Sometimes I'll be in the mood to wear something and I have a hard time deciding what to wear with it! But I love that top--and I think you're right, the cardigan gives it a nice shape!
