Holiday Fashions

Hi Goodwill friends! I hope your getting to enjoy all of the fun parts of the upcoming holiday season. This time of year can seem so busy, and I hope that in the midst of it all your finding time to enjoy family and friends.

One great way to relax is to spend a little time finding some cute holiday looks at your local Goodwill! And the best part is, you save more Christmas cash for presents! This month, I enlisted the help of my sweet cousin Caris to be my model, and we found some great looks. I hope you’re inspired and encouraged to shop your local Goodwill for some great (and cozy) winter looks! Have a Merry Christmas, and I’ll catch you next year!

 

For December in Kansas, a cozy sweater and scarf are a must! We found this cute black and grey cashmere one for just $3.99, and added a cozy cotton scarf for just $1.99. That’s a hard deal to beat at your local department store!

 

Our next look is centered around a cute and cozy stretch knit top. The thing that I loved about this top is that is really echoes exactly what you will find on the racks at all the stores now! I think there is a misconception that you can’t find trendy new looks at Goodwill – but that is just not the case! So before you spend three times the price at another store, shop Goodwill first and let them surprise you!

This dress really has to be my favorite! It’s  a cozy stretchy knit that just has that perfect fit! I love it because it’s warm enough to wear in the winter, but get rid of the scarf and boots, and it makes a great spring dress too. You can’t see them in this picture, but we paired the dress with some knee-high black boots, and they were super cute to finish the look! Oh – and the dress was just $5.99!! Hello extra Christmas cash!
