Hello fashion friends.

 

Every summer I tell myself, "No more white button front shirts!"  And every summer I fail. 😬  Using my best rationalization skills, I justified this one because it has square rhinestones all over it, so it's not just another white button front. I'm easily fooled haha. DKNY Jeans, Rack, $24.

 

#1   Casual version...e-thrifted AG Isabelle in washed black, old Eileen Fisher espadrilles, old striped Marc Jacobs bag

#2  Dressier version...thrifted Natori from HSN black slacks, e-thrifted Oscar de la Renta scarf, e-thrifted Donald Pliner sandals, old Lucky Brand straw bag

#4  Max Studio popover tencel swing top from Marshall's, thrifted men's Wrangler straight leg jeans, e-thrifted Converse sneaks, old thrifted SAK

I've been having to randomly double click forum topics on this 🤬 site.  Yesterday, I was trying to click on the fashion forum...clicked it, but no go...got royally ticked off and mashed it good and hard again...ended up in the handbag forum. 😠

 

I clicked into @shoekitty 's Funky Moschino Paint Bucket Purse (fun thread, linked below).  Showed the bag to Handsome, and he said, "well, what do you know!  I'm a fashionista!"  He heads out to the garage and comes back with this...

Handsome [doing his best Vanna White impersonation]:  THIS is the bucket bag every fashionista needs!

 

Me [grabbing camera and LOLing]:   Only if you need a huge red one and you like Harbor Freight.

 

HandsomeNo problem.  It comes in a smaller size.  Blue [Lowe's] and orange [Home Depot]🤔, I wonder if Ace Hardware has one?

 

Me [🙄]:  How many paint buckets does one man need for pete's sake!?

 

Handsome [too smart for his own britches]:   How many handbags does one woman need?

 

Me:   Opps! 🤐

 

 

My husband is a funny man.

 

Hope y'all have a great week.

I have to say, I'm with Handsome.  Give me a shiny, new bucket over a handbag any day of the week!  (I'm the practical one of our duo.)

Oh, that's so funny what your "Handsome" did!  Very cute!

 

I love the rhinestone studded blouse -  so subtle but amazing and I can see a million wearings for this!

 

I also think the blue striped blouse and the handbag are just amazing!

As always, you look great in all your outfits.  I'm particularly drawn to the blue striped blouse and your new white blouse with the square beads.

 

Handsome certainly fits his nickname!  I don't remember you posting a picture of him before.  He's really stylin too with that fancy bucket bag!!

Each item is different but everything works together, I like that.

I especially like the scarf and black espadrilles.

Love both of your shirts.  The white shirt is so versatile, dress up or dress down.
