Hooray for Second Chances! ootd

Winter Berry Cuff, Flamingo Print, and Bunting from Etsy.com
     Do you ever find yourself pining for the one that got away?  As someone who has a hard time letting go, I frequently find myself wishing I'd bought this sweater or that dress before it sold out.  Holding on to the hope of finding those lost loves is what keeps me scouring resale sites for months and even years after they've sold out.  That's where ThredUp swoops in to save the day. It seems like I'm always unexpectedly finding dresses I'd nearly given up on.  
    I really liked this Places to Go, People to See dress in Floral from ModCloth.  The subtle blue grey fabric with tiny floral print and that bright red piping and buttons really gave this dress a vintage flare and made it a stand out piece.  But in the end I kept spending my clothing budget on something else each month until the dress sold out.  ThredUp has this wonderful way of giving me a second chance (at a price I can afford) to bring home those styles I let get away.  Originally priced at $89.99, made it mine for only $24.99 and it's in perfect condition.  
    The sun is just coming up, the clouds are rolling out, and it's my favorite time of day for a walk.  Spring is finally here, the buds of life, the damp earth, all the songs on the breeze.  I am beyond excited to get out and revisit all my old favorite places, and I hope you'll come with me as I rediscover home.
