Thrifty Thursday


I always love to visit Janelle and Mardi's blog every Wednesday and Thursday to see their WIWW (What I Wore Wednesday) and Thrifty Thursdays. Although I don't have the confidence to model any outfits for WIWW, as I am much happier hiding behind the camera, I thought I would join them this week for Thrifty Thursday and share a few of my recent finds.






This is todays purchase...a colorado skirt and I just love it! And only $6.50


A fully lined cream wool coat...also a favourite ($15.50)


Even my daughter (Miss 9) scored with a pretty coral coloured cropped cardi.

I also found some white jeans and a shorter length cream jacket.

We have plastered out my new WIR today and I have decided to paint it out in aqua (Noosa Views) and paint the walls in our bedroom cream and maybe having a feaure wall in aqua...but still not 100% sure about the feature wall. I suppose if I dont like it I can easily re-paint!

Enjoy the rest of your week
