Frugal Finds Fab-ruary Recap & March Makeover

I know, I know. We’re several days into March. I’ve been busy with work and school. School, especially, has been mercilessly kicking my butt. I have to say, though, struggling with my course load is serving as a great distraction from online shopping. LOL

Because of how busy I’ve been with school, I managed to wrap up Frugal Finds Fab-ruary without much difficulty. In case you didn’t have a chance to read the post on my February project, below are the terms I set for myself for the entire month:

1. Shop within a set clothing budget of $150.
2. Only purchase preloved/secondhand pieces.
3. Share the price of each and every item I purchase.
4. Put whatever funds I have left in the $150 budget into paying my car loan.

Eileen Fisher Renew

I own a few Eileen Fisher pieces, and I find the designs simple, beautiful and elegant. They can be a bit pricey though, so I see them as investments. They will last for years since they are so classic and timeless. Just when I thought I couldn’t love the brand more, I fell in love with their stance on sustainable and ethical practices in the fashion industry.

Nothing New January Check-In

Sweater: Theory (similar Poshmark finds)| White shirt: Bonobos (Brother’s)| Boots: Louise et Cie (Poshmark find) (similar)| Skirt: Banana Republic (old)

Today is January 18, 2019, and that means we’re past the halfway point of Nothing New January! I want to share some of the feelings and thoughts I’ve had this month because, oh boy, have there been a lot of thoughts and feelings.

My Everlane Review

Sweater: vintage (Poshmark) | Jeans: Everlane | Shoes: Louise et Cie (Poshmark) (similar)

I have heard so many good things about Everlane, especially their jeans. So when they were having their Choose What You Pay sale, I placed an order on the last day of 2018 (the day before Nothing New January began LOL) After having worn some of the pieces I’ve ordered, I wanted to share my thoughts on the pieces and Everlane as a brand.
