I was really excited to find this fun floral headband at the local Blakeslee thriftshop, which is actually housed in an old K-mart and runs the gamut from raw honey and other local foods, to jewelry, clothes and other knick-knacks. Smack dab in the middle was an accessory diva's dream, a Claire's-like extravaganza only much much cheaper. Most of the stuff actually was Claire's brand, and when I asked the store owner if she had bought out an old Claire's she said she "purchases the overstock". Fine by me- I'll take the savings!
Sweater: Forever 21, necklace & tank: H&M, pants: Francesca's, Shoes: TOMS, headband: Blakeslee Thrift, ring: The Lemon Moth (self-made)
It was raining/sleeting yesterday, but luckily today it had cleared up and I could get these outfit photos in the snow :) When I get my holga film back I will hopefully have some other interesting pictures to share! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Anyone else have a recent adventure? <3
xo,
Alyssa

Thanks so much Em :)
DeleteI love that headband. Such an understated flora crown and I love the sound of that store. It sounds perfect. Your sweater is amazing and again, you are nailing it with the bright color + color combos. Your trip sounds like it was tons of fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much :) Been feeling a lot of bright on bright :) And yea, the thrift store was amazing!
DeleteA trip to the mountains sounds like so much fun. I wish I'd had a recent adventure because I'm dying for a getaway soon!
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is so adorable and fun. I love all the bright colors and the double polka dots. Such a great headband you found while you were there too.
Thank you Jamie :) I have been loving pairing different polka dots together, I'm glad you liked it! xo
DeleteWhat a sweet combination - love the double polka dots!

OOOHhh! I love that headband. What a great find! Also you're in Toms in the snow? You're crazy.. but that would be something I would do also. haha
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous of all the wintery activities. I've actually never been tubing in the snow. In Texas we go tubing but down a river (which involves alcohol and just relaxing) Cannot wait until I go back.
hehe yes. my glitter TOMS :D Luckily they do repel water better, but yes, it's a little crazy to wear them in the snow. You should totally come north and check out some winter activities some time! Don't be too jealous though, I only get to do stuff like that a few times each winter, the rest is just trying to survive the bitter cold, lol!
DeleteDouble polka dots AND a floral crown- my kind of gal! A tubing weekend sounds so perefct, glad you had fun despite the cold wet feet dilemma! Your accessories here are all adorable! Hope you're having a great start to your week!

Thanks so much!! I was really happy I found it :)
DeleteThis outfit is so perfectly candy-coated :-) For some reason this pink and mint combo reminds me of an old fashioned ice cream parlor...love it! I truly think I need a sweater like that in my closet...hehe.
ReplyDeleteYour time in the Poconos sounds lovely. I was there in the fall but have yet to tube or ski there even with it being 30 minutes away from my house!
xo Marisa
Aw thanks Marisa :) I did feel like an old ice cream parlor, it was fun :) Man, you're lucky you're so close!! The Poconos are such a nice spot to feel away from it all, haha. I've been going up there to my family's cabin since I was maybe 5 or 6? It was a big part of growing up. I definitely appreciate it more now as an adult though then I did then. As an adult you treasure tranquility and "time off" so much more, you know? haha.
Deletesorry but I cannot see you in my GFC list..... Can you check and let me know so I can follow you back.
ReplyDeleteHi Vivian! I just checked and I guess it didn't go through? haha. I am following you now though, I am the picture with the orange hat and the yellow scarf (butterfliesonmars@gmail.com.)

ReplyDeleteI love your bright headband! ♥ You always wear such bold colours which brighten my day.

ReplyDeleteHi there, Alyssa! I wanted to say thank you for leaving me such a sweet comment, I really appreciate it a lot! I love your blog, everything is so bright and colorful, wow! I love that sweater, and especially your fancy headband. Oh gosh, I'm so glad it doesn't snow where I live, it would drive me crazy as I'm already cold all the time even in the mild temps we have. But it sure is pretty to look at!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute polka dot sweater! I love that you paired it with pink pants :)
ReplyDeleteTrendy Teal

I love the mint and pink together!! I never think that two brights will work together and then I look at your blog and all of that doubt vanishes! (p.s, I have a similar polka dot sweater thats white with black dots and you've now inspired me to pair it with these baby blue pants I just bought :)
