Pink and Polka Dotted

Flowers are blooming and it is teasing us with summery weather here in the Northwest. Yesterday I went for my first run of the season and it felt glorious. However, if you follow me on Twitter you will know that once I arrived back home from my run, I realized that I didn’t bring my keys but my bf’s house keys instead. I always get so angry at myself when I make silly mistakes like that. Normally I would triple check to make sure I had my keys but yesterday for some reason happened to not follow that pattern.

In this outfit that I wore over the weekend, both the skirt and the bag were found at a second hand store. I love thrift shopping because you never know what you are going to find! If you are looking for trendy pieces I highly recommend second hand stores like Buffalo Exchange and Plato’s Closet.
I found and love this asymmetrical faux-leather skirt from Topshop. Not only did I pay less than $10 but it fits perfectly (not too short, not too long) and had no signs of wear. I was also very pleasantly surprised to find this bright pink Calvin Klein purse for only $15! I love having a statement colored handbag as I tend to wear mostly neutrals and a pop of color is generally a must for me.

Have you ever found a true gem at a second hand store?
Once I even found a pair of old Jimmy Choo pumps! Alas they were size 4.5 but still.
