So… what is the best thing about fashion? It always repeats itself. What’s old will become new again. No reason to spend all your hard earned cash on clothing when you can find the same looks for less.


Two trends in the Max Mara spring collection were jumpsuits and dresses showing blocks of sheer and opaque. You can imagine my delight when I found a combination of these two trends while shopping at the Goodwill in Caro, Mi! Okay so the story really is more interesting than simply finding the jumpsuit and knowing it would look fantastic. The jumpsuit became an obsession for a couple of days. I saw the jumpsuit on Monday and thought… hmm… cute jumpsuit. I should buy it. But I didn’t. Later that evening I was flipping through my favorite magazine and saw the Max Mara spring collection and almost went crazy! Jumpsuits! Sheer/opaque block! Anyone who shops at Goodwill knows, the minute you leave something behind it won’t be there when you return. I knew I wouldn’t be able to make it back to Caro until Sunday. That’s when the obsession really began. I started sending txt to EVERYONE I knew. Who would be in Caro? Lucky for me one of my male co-workers was going to be in Caro. He was given the task of GETTING ME WHAT I WANTED!!!! Lucky for all involved I am now the happy owner of the newest addition to a spring wardrobe. I snagged this cute little number for $3!
