This dress/shirt is a recent addition to my wardrobe and has the same story as my Day 1: Linen love shirt. Yard sales are a valid shopping option for anyone, so long as you aren't afraid of the heat and sorting through piles of clothes to find the one, or two, or ten pieces that speak to you.
Considering how loud this outfit is, I tried to dress it up with minimal accessories that blend well into the overall look. My capris were from a local thrift store and were the ideal color to pair with the shirt. This belt has already been mentioned in the Day 3 post and will definitely be featured again, as versatility is a key component in deciding on what to buy. Reusing accessories is a fantastic way to cut down on clothing expenses (especially if the accessory came with an outfit and is removable, e.g. this belt). The necklace and ring featured in this post are both from yard sales. One of the first things I do when I go to a sale is check out the jewelry section, because people get rid of the craziest things at the cheapest prices, and I can't fathom their choice, but I go with it and continue on with my day. The Ralph Lauren shoes were from the Day 1 post and are just making a reappearance.
