Red Ridinghoodless

Hi, All. I'm back for round two. It's Sunday and that means back to the J.O.B. tomorrow. Not that I'm complaining. I actually love my profession. It's been a good weekend and I hope you had a good one too.

I'm going to do some serious back tracking for the next few posts. As you can tell by the dates, I didn't start this blog at the very beginning of the year. So, I feel I need to bring you up to speed. This outfit is literally what I wore January 2, 2012. January 1st was pretty much spent in sweats with a big pot of gumbo. However, on the 2nd, my husband, Stephen and I went to an auction. I know. It seems like a weird day to conduct one, but that's exactly what happened. It was fairly cool that day and the perfect opportunity to wear this red cape I found on a thrifting expedition. It reminds me of Little Red Ridinghood, only without the hood. I have to rate this as one of my top 10 finds this winter as it was only $2.00. Can't beat that with a stick!
I love emphasizing what I call, the "Thrift Factor" of an outfit. Meaning what percentage of it is thrifted. I have to admit, this isn't as high as usual. Only the cape and the sweater underneath qualify. Thrift factor = 40%

Cape: Thrifted
Sweater: Thrifted
Faded Glory Jeggings via Walmart
Cole Hann Boots via Marshall's circa 2007
Coach purse: Gift from Hubby (I just love him!)

Until the next post, best wishes,
