Goodwill Hunting

- Dress: Goodwill - Scarf as belt: Ross - Shoes: Ross
- Bracelets & Ring: ShopSosie (Giveaway prize) - Earrings: Kohl's
 Today I went to our local Goodwill store to try to find something for Everybody, Everywear: The Thrift Edition. I've been meaning to go for a while, and this challenge just gave me an incentive to get myself over there to do some browsing! I stumbled across this dress (surrounded by shapeless muumuus and gaudy bridesmaid dresses) with its tags from Target for only 6.99. I was with my mom, and afterwards she let Sean and I hang out at her house for the afternoon because the A/C at my apartment had frozen over (for the third time in as many weeks) and the maintenance guy was over there trying to fix it (again). Before pulling out the kiddie pool and letting Sean swim I borrowed my mom's scarf, shoes, and jewelry to create this outfit for our mini photo shoot. My mom is such an artist and I'm always very happy with the pictures when she's behind the camera! Thanks Mom!
P.S.
Here's a pic taken about five minutes after the last ones. I'm wearing my old college tee shirt, which was perfect for getting drenched splashed by my silly silly little almost one year old boy!
