New, Vintage & Thrifted

Last week, I posted this on facebook & Instagram #livelygracehome



New, vintage, and thrifted is also how I shop for clothes & like to dress ~ when it comes together.


Here's the breakdown:
The 'Buon Viaggo' t-shirt was a total thrift store score ~ a J Crew brand that appeared to be a sample, but was brand-spanking new.
The black Moda cardigan was also a find at Goodwill.  I wear cardigans a lot, and don't pass up a good deal on the basics.
The 'new' is that grey skirt with little swirlies from LuLaRue that was picked up at the LulaQ Market last November.


On to the vintage!  Vain & Vintage in Pocatello is one of my favorite shops, and where I picked up the 'J' vintage typewriter key pendant by the local jewelry artist, Hipper than Thou.  It's a feel good piece to me, and I wear it often.


And then there is the gifted.  I have sweet friends, and I received this arrow braclet and the mini arrow necklace both as gifts!  
I pulled on some boots and had a fun evening, accompanied by an ever growing young man, at the movies in my thrifted, new, vintage, & gifted duds!

Buon Viaggo! Good trip!

Love Where You Live

Welcome 2015!
The beginning of the year always brings talk of, articles about, and beautiful pictures of organized spaces.
Let's just say I'm happy I finished this cabinet and put it to use in our home in 2014.  Perfectly organized it is not, but it does prettily hold tools of the trade, and is a 'real' part of our home. (See the before of this cabinet here. )



I could definitely use a whole house organization, but that's not realistic.  
So I'm going to Love Where I Live.  
Knowing that creating a home, keeping it working for our family, and keeping a balance of all things is what I am always working on.


With little touches of life, like a sweet handmade card, to remind me to keep my perspective.




Happy New Year!
