Happy New Year!

Happy 2011 Readers! Hope you all had a lovely 2010.... and if not Yay for you! ....because it's over now :) I'm going to continue an Inspired Days Blog tradition and post my To Do list for the new year above. I finalized the update on my 2010 list and realized that I actually ended up getting a lot of that list done SO I encourage you to make a New Years To Do List! They work! and they're fun too.

If you do make a list for 2011 let me know. I'd love to collect a list of everybody's ambitions for the year to come. It should be very inspiring....

My Lookbook: Lace Army

I havn't done a Lookbook post in a while, so I wanted to showcase this nifty Camoflauge Army shirt I thrifted a couple weeks ago. It was found in the men's jacket rack during a day of shop hopping with Tif and it fit me just as I would have hoped... 15 minutes later it was mine!

Danielle Days: A Day Of Thrifting

Here's some great photos from a Sunday or two ago when Tif and I went on a little thrifting adventure. If you havn't already, I recommend you go on one yourself soon with someone special.

We went to church at our standard time and grabbed some Starbucks and grub at Panera Bread as a starter. Above is my grande black tea with raspberry and a yummy 1/2 salad 1/2 sandwich combo.

Borders was right around the corner, so we stopped by. I peaked at the new GQ issue learning some valuable knowledge about how to put on cologne correctly and whether I should invest in an ipad or not. The answer was no, but I AM contemplating grabbing one of these snazzy journals and making it mine soon!

After Borders some great thrifting was done. We found cute little retro eyeglass cases and tons of grandma home goods. The ultimate purchase being these black and yellow Bumblebee Roller Derby Skates that somehow fit me perfectly! It was destiny I tell you.. destiny!

Last stop was LaBomba, our favorite Vintage store in old town. Apparently Jesus was on TV that day....or I guess everyday at LaBomba.

The sum up: Me in my new vintage librarian scholar blue plaid blazer and Tif in her vintage green dress (half off) and new vintage brown comfy cowboy boots.
