I love taking traditional summery items and transforming them into a cooler weather look! For this outfit I took my Tobi maxi dress and added layers with a sweater and scarf! To pull together the more winter-friendly look I added boots too! Don't be afraid to try out some layering and get more use out of the items in your closet! Xoxo, Alexa

Growing up, I went to countless thrift stores and garage sales with my mom. I learned to love finding a good deal, making something old into something new, and seeing a used item differently then someone else might. Still to this day I love thrifting, because you can find unique pieces that make your wardrobe different and stand out. Plus, you can't beat the prices ;) I actually can shop better in a thrift store then a department store; I can spot what I like and don't like faster. Last week my mom and I went thrifting in the San Luis Obispo area and I scored some amazing clothes! I will be sharing more outfits where I incorporate these items soon, but here is my first look: 1) I found this amazing fitted, long shirt jacket with a fun fall floral print. It of course had shoulder pads in it, which I cut out 2) This white loose fitting tank caught my eye at Goodwill because of it's length 3) I purchased these jeans which are about a size too big aka "boyfriend jeans" and came home and destroyed them myself with scissors and tweezers to make my own holes, instead of spending $50+ on boyfriend destroyed denim at a retail store 4) Lastly, I wore my brown booties and metal statement necklace that I bought at Forever 21. The thrill of the hunt is the best, and this is one of my favorite outfits to date! Finding the right balance between thrifted and new will give you a killer outfit :)

I wanted to make my Styles For Less overalls a little more fancy by adding a fun shaggy fur vest! The long sleeve shirt and Free People booties also make the overalls more fall ready! Topped it off with some layered necklaces and I'm good to go! Xoxo, Alexa

I love my Free People overalls. They are so comfy and easy to style without much thought. Adding a long sleeve shirt underneath and booties from DSW keeps this look feeling like fall. I thrifted this yellow purse and added my sunglasses from the BP section of Nordstrom to my outfit. Don't forget to sign up with Free People so you get emailed coupons on your birthday; that's how I scored these overalls for a little cheaper :) xoxo, Danielle

Happy thanksgiving everyone! Today I'm wearing my new favorite bell bottom pants from Three Bird Nest! They feel like leggings and have an elastic waist which is perfect for tonight's feast! I paired it with a flared sleeve top and fur vest for a 70s vibe! Danielle and I are so thankful for all of YOU, our followers, for the support! Xoxo, Alexa

Destroyed denim shorts are one of my favorite summer items. I love that you can easily pair shorts with tights and make it into a fall/winter look! Having staple pieces like denim shorts is important to create all kinds of looks throughout the year! Xoxo, danielle
