Thrift Style Thursday: Dainty

For Thrift Style Thursday today, the theme is "Delightfully Dainty."  I chose two pieces I've actually featured in previous Thrift Style Thursday posts - I just love them each so darn much!!  I stole this outfit idea from Frannie Pantz - I saw her put two similar pieces together and I realized, I could make the same outfit and it would be really cute!

 Shirt - J Crew (thrifted), Skirt - Wet Seal (thrifted)
Necklace - Stella and Dot, Shoes - Duck Head (from mom)


I can't get enough of this lace and tulle black skirt.  It is flirty and feminine and fun.  I figured that qualified as "dainty."  Also I love this J Crew striped top I thrifted - little details like the zipper on the back are just so fun!  It doesn't hurt that it's one of my favorite colors too, you can't beat coral!


I am pretty much a girly girl, I can't help but love all things lace and ruffles and frill!  It's funny though - as a mom to a boy I am finding I really actually appreciate boy clothes - it's so easy to put stuff together for him in the morning.  I think I'd actually stress more if I had a girl!  Not to mention, boy clothes are actually kind of cute - but definitely not dainty!!

    I love dressing Ben, too. Boys clothes are easy and fun. Mimi refuses to let anyone dress her but herself, so the pressure is off for me with that! Ha! This outfit is really cute on you. I like the more structured top with the frilly, girly skirt.

    I love this combination of the classic stripes and the fun tulle skirt. That skirt looks like it's so much fun to wear--how can you not feel pretty and dainty wearing a tulle skirt!?

    The new camera is working great for the style posts! I really like the stripe top. It looks super comfortable, and the zipper on the back is just the right amount of intrigue. :)

    The zipper on the back in such a fun detail to that shirt! Can't go wrong with a good stripe. :) I have officially (as of this weekend) hit that point where since it's harder to find clothes for me when I'm out shopping somewhere since not everyone has maternity wear, I can't help but swing through and look at little boy stuff and it is so adorable!!
