I was in Seattle for the Microsoft Office Champion’s Summit this past week and it was absolutely amazing! While we didn’t stay in the Ballard neighborhood (which I think we all fell in love with), we got a chance to head back there on our last day and this beautiful area of Seattle did not disappoint.
I love this picture. Special thanks to Jevon for capturing it!
Kristin and Kimmie led me to a consignment store that they’d shopped at last year. As soon as we walked in, something caught my eye. I blame Kimmie because she was standing by it. A vintage leather jacket, folks. Which she promptly forbid me from not buying. Mental note: do not go shopping with fantabulous stylists.
Kristin didn’t help but, what can I say? They were right. At this shop, I grabbed 3 scarves, an original hobo bag, a beautiful ring and of course, the jacket. Oh wait! I also found a cool watch and a cuff. Shopping in Seattle was a lot more fun than I thought it would be (can you believe I haven’t shopped for clothes the last few trips I’ve been there?).
I immediately wore one of the scarves and learned that patterns can be matched without them looking insane.
What do you think? Was it a good choice?

Oh and what did the jacket cost? A whole $38. Winning! I haven’t been to a consignment store in ages but was reminded of all of the treasures you can find.
In the coming months, I’ll be doing a little fashion find each month with a small budget and a couple of my girls so we can show you how easy it can be to pick a few pieces here and there in order to make your closet efficient and awesome. Stay tuned!
Did you buy anything fabulous this week?
Yasssss to NO yoga pants! LOL
Girl, you look fly!! I love the ring!!
