I wore a lot of thrifted things this week, since I was participating in the Thrifted Chic Style Challenge on Instagram.
On Monday, I wore this two-piece SG Sports (Susan Graver) shorts set from a local thrift shop. I thought the pattern might be too much, but I like the look of it and it’s of a nice, light fabric.
On Tuesday, I pulled out a sundress that I rarely wear because I don’t like to go sleeveless. So I paired it with an A.n.a. tee shirt that matched the orange in the pattern. I only “dare to bare arms” when it is really hot out, and that happened today, as you will see below.
We’ve been taking a lot of our walks by the bay. I’m so happy to be able to walk on the sand again!
Wednesday turned cool, so I went with long white pants (89th & Madison from Ross Dress For Less) with a Signature Studio hi-low top in a color that’s just so summery to me!
On Thursday, I wore a pair Christopher Banks bermuda shorts with a rolled cuff that I snagged on Poshmark and a cream Sigrid Olsen tee shirt with a bold necklace.
Today, to beat the hit, I actually left the house in a sleeveless Calvin Klein striped tank top and white JAG bermuda shorts …
along with a seaglass pendant purchased from a local Cape May artist.
This is not meant to be a professional blog, but simply to show what I’m actually wearing every day. But I do envy the photos some of my favorite bloggers show on their sites. I just never know what to do with myself! Every once in a while, I try to mix it up and do some different poses but always end up ditching them in favor of the tried-and-true (and boring). The result is sometimes very weird photos!
My husband says that if I would stop talking while he’s trying to take photos, I might get better shots!

That Susan Graver set is cute! I remember having a couple similar things in the 90s, I think they were Charter Club by Macy*s and were florals, but this astral theme (at first I thought it was “seaside” but now I see the stars are stars, not starfish!) is cute. Of course, you know me, I would have worn a cardigan over the whole thing so you’d only see a little sliver of the print down the front.
That seaglass pendant is really cool!
And so good to hear you’re walking in the sand! Your recovery must be going well 🙂
Hope you have a nice weekend.

You did a great job with the TCC this week. I will always vote for my favorite summer combo-white pants with about anything. Then it’s with the perfect color green for summer. Its hot here too-the heat index is off the charts for June.

And posing is hard. I have never felt comfortable doing it but you just have too-there’s quite a few photos with my mouth open-it’s hard not to talk.
