Matching Sets

My God do I love matching sets. There's nothing better than a cute, flirty-yet-sophisticated, EASY outfit. Matching sets are great for a number of reasons. I know some people are not into the matchy-matchy look, so if that's the case, then sets are definitely not for you. But for those of you that are not intimidated by the idea of wearing the same print head-to-toe, matching sets are sooo in!

First of all, they come in so many different varities it's easy to find one that works for you. They have the matching top & skirt, top & pants, top & shorts etc.. If you don't like skirts, there's a matching set in short form, if you dont like shorts, there's a matching set in maxi-skirt form. They come in neutrals as well as mixed prints. The thing about matching sets- they always look put together. No one will doubt that you coordinated an outfit if you are in a matching set! They are simple and easy, it's one step and the outfit is complete. If you are in a rush but want to look like a million bucks, throw on a matching-set and you are good to go!

Two Tricks to Thrifting

1. PATIENCE. You may think you don’t need to look through every single Cosby sweater on the rack sizes S-XL at the Goodwill, but you’re wrong. You do. There is always a hidden gem. Be patient and find it. This isn’t a rush job.

2. FIND THE DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH. Goodwill isn’t Bloomingdales, things aren’t gonna look “better on the rack.” Look at the details see the positives find what you can make of it. Scissors are always useful.
