Technically, Independence Day has come and gone, but that
didn't stop me from wanting to create some fireworks with my look! For the
final day of the Poppin' Tags Challenge, I wanted to create a look around one of my favorite vintage finds: a white pearl bow tie. To create the perfect backdrop for the bow tie, I wore a blue and white striped, cowl-neck tank from one of my favorite resale stores, Rung Boutique. I added my sleek dark wash jeans from another amazing resale store, Sprung Boutique (specializing in maternity and children's apparel) and red accents add a patriotic vibe. I've had so much fun showing off
my independent style with resale and thrift store items!
When you're out poppin' tags at a thrift store, make sure you give yourself
lots of time. Especially for thrifty novices, having
to hunt through countless hangers just to find one item that's truly
"you" (and in your size) is not a quick or easy process. But as you
can see, it's well worth it. Feel free to leave your thrift-store shopping tips in the comments!
