Contrary to popular belief, Las Vegas DOES get cold. Although for some people that may be a hard concept grasp, us Vegas locals DO own thick coats, gloves, hats and boots. However, it isn't until November or December that we really start to feel the chill in the air...

The art of thrifting is a quality I deeply admire. I have many friends who find their best threads at their local Salvation Army, Good Will, Buffalo Exchange, or Plato's Closet. It's in these places they find hidden gems that are only half the cost (or less) than the retail price it was originally sold.They walk out of a thrift store looking like a million bucks and it's amazing to me ! *Que Thirft Shop by Macklemore* Although I admire my friends' talents, I kind of get intimidated walking in to these places because there's just SO MUCH to go through...

One thing I love about fashion is how styles and trends recycle throughout time. For example, right now a lot of 60's and 70's inspired looks are coming back into the scene. Mod looks, flared pants, flowy garments, thigh high boots, hippie florals....the works! Since I'm already in love with the bohemian style, it's no surprise that I'm super excited about this. It's definitely nice to see these pieces are more popular making them more accessible...

You all know that I love dresses ! Short dresses, long dresses, floral dresses, colored dresses... you name it. So when I saw this black and white striped maxi dress over at Patty's Closet, I just knew I had to try it on. I usually don't wear stripes because one, black and white stripes remind me of Beetlejuice. Two, if you have a curvy figure, it can accentuate your figure even more, and sometimes in a bad way! Although I love my body, sometimes I get a bit skeptical to wear anything that shows off how curvy I really am. Since I'm so short and I wear flowy tops/dresses a majority of the time, some people think I'm stick thin, when in all actuality that's not the case. LOL. I'm not fat or too skinny, but just right in the middle of the two. Still, a girl can't help feel a bit self conscious...

One of the coolest things about fashion is seeing how different pieces can mix together. I love taking something a bit casual and matching it with something that's a little more dressed up. So when I went to Patty's Closet's Rainbow and Windmill location, I saw this jean skirt (yes, A JEAN SKIRT) and knew exactly what I was going to pair it with. Instead of a regular t-shirt or tank. I wanted to wear the skirt with a dressier top and heels. And WA-LAH! I bring you today's Fashion Favorites entry...

To be honest, I don't really shop too much (as I previously mentioned in my last entry). But when I do find something I like, I make the investment. So when I walked into Patty's Closet on Rainbow and Windmill the other week, I was surprised to find that I wanted to buy everything! Literally gushing to myself about how cute everything was, I just knew I had to buy SOMETHING...
