Let Me Tell You About My Best Friends! Pt.3

After meeting Thrift, my perception of shopping has forever changed. I started adding pieces I found at the thrift store and putting it together with items I had in my closet, making different outfits. A little vintage here with a little new there, I now had my own individual look. Then it came to me, my AHA MOMENT! I don’t necessarily need to purchase anything every time I have plans to go out.  I can just mix and match what I have!

Let Me Tell You About My Best Friends! Pt.2

So after spending some time with my friend SR (Sales Rack) he had me feeling good, looking good, and he saved me tons of money! I just wish I had met him sooner, but now our bond is unbreakable! He’s always there for me in my bad days and when I need some therapy he is always willing to help. One day I went to visit SR and to my surprise I didn’t find anything. I have to admit I was pretty disappointed. I guess he saw it in my eyes, so he whispered in my ear:
"Thrifting"

“Thrifting you say? But isn't that old clothes worn by other people?” 

He tells me, “Yes, however you can find some really cute things to help build your wardrobe. Styles are coming back, and thrifting is a cheap way to keep up with the trends.”

Then he told me the 2 biggest secrets of all! 

“They have sales too, and Target sends unworn clothes and shoes to the Goodwill!"

"Whaatttt!! Shut up! I have to meet him!!"

 And this happened...

Free Style Friday 4/10/15

Aloha! This week Free Style Friday is for Mommy to be Diana. Diana wanted to know, “What is a cute maternity outfit that I can wear to my luau themed baby shower?”

The style of floral peplum maxi dress will fit perfectly over mommy’s tummy and it’s only right to have a floral head piece. Keep it simple with gold jewelry to complement the dress. A soft pink sandal will bring out the accents in the flowers. There you have it Mrs. Diana. Can’t wait for the shower! He Mea Iki! 

Let Me Tell You About My Best Friends!

I didn't meet him until recently. I stumbled upon him, when I had to take another route in the store. Apparently he has always been there but in the back, so I may have saw him in glancing but we were never formally introduced. But one day I didn't have a choice had to go straight to the back of the store. There he was, so open, he greeted me with a huge smile and started handing me items. They had red stickers, percentages off, items that were just in front of the store weeks ago! He welcomed me and my tight pocket book, and I gladly accepted. If you don't know who I'm talking about by now, I'm talking about my best friend The Sales Rack! Since that day I never shopped the same!

Check out some of my sale items below:

Rebirth Lifestyle of Fashion

I have recently been asked to be a contributing blogger for the Rebirth Lifestyle of Fashion Show, taking place on May 9th. After speaking to Uyama Umana of Mood Swings Entertainment and finding out more about the show, I knew this was something I had to be apart of. Lets just say this is going to be a great night of fun and exquisite fashion while supporting a wonderful cause! This is more than a fashion show but a fundraiser to support the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society- Gateway Chapter. If you are not aware of who they are, LLS supports adults and children fighting against leukemia or lymphoma. The things they do for the families are remarkable and brings a sense of comfort to those in need. You can learn more about the services that LLS -Gateway Chapter provides by visiting www.lls.org. 

So with that being said, I am going to do my part and help LLS continue to give hope and be a blessing to those who have been effected by these illness. If you would like to join me and support this awesome cause, feel free to make a donation at: http://www.lls.org/pages/gat/Rebirth. This is a team effort, when you make your donation comment below and mention you are apart of Team MsLulu. 

P.S. I want to see all of you guys at the show as well!! Tickets are now on sale at www.eventbrite.com (Rebirth: Lifestyle of Fashion). See you soon!!
