Although these pieces are casual, I think Claire is right in that they are a dressier version of casual. I would like my summer casual wardrobe to all work that well. It's nice to be able to whip out at the last minute without having to worry about what you're wearing, you know?</p> <p>Claire &amp; Deborah - I guess thrifting is part of who I am and I will never really stop. But I have gotten much pickier and apply the same rules for what comes into my closet via thrifting as I would if paying full price.</p> <p>Thanks for your comments ladies - I always appreciate your feedback </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-recover#post-966859 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 00:33:06 +0000 Deborah 966859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Shannon, you look great! Cannot believe you have had so little sleep:).

You thrifted all of that bright, shiny, new stuff? Summer clothes are trashed here before they ever wind up in thrift stores. That silk tank is unbelievable, such a great color on you, and I wouldn't even call that a "very casual outfit". It's a little dressy and really quite nice! The color is smashing on you and everything fits like a dream. You go girl! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-recover#post-966724 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 19:24:35 +0000 Anonymous 966724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect for summer vacation!

I've managed to get some sleep and drink 2 large cups of coffee and am back in the land of the living. So glad hubby and I booked today off as a vacation day! Plus it's a long weekend in Canada so 4 days off - whoo hoo!</p> <p>Today's outfit is obviously super casual since we're just hanging around the house today. Everything I'm wearing was thrifted last week when I popped into my local Value Village to scope out casual wear - I usually find shorts, tanks and tees via thrifting and since I'm extremely hard on my summer casual clothes, I prefer not to spend too much money in that area.</p> <p>I'm wearing a pair of bright red Bermuda jean shorts and a fabulous 100% silk coral-red and cream Ikat type print tank. For footwear, I've got on a great little pair of thong sandals - also thrifted last week.</p> <p>This is pretty much the type of outfit I live in (outside of work obviously) in our hot and humid summers. What do you think? does it work? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Silk tank: Velvet (thrifted)<br />Shorts: Roadrunner Jeans (thrifted)<br />Sandals: Christian Siriano for Payless (thrifted) </p>
