Sweaters & Tights

Jeans & a t-shirt. Great Combo.

Sweater & tights. Great (Fall) Combo.

My new job requires for me to wear more "conservative" clothing. Just means no jeans, not to dressy, and button up collared shirts. But that means I need to do some shopping. I looked to places like Banana Republic, GAP, and Nordstrom as a references point THEN going to TJ Max, Target, and Goodwill for the actually shopping.

It also looks like I need new tights too.


tights - (gift)
jean shorts - (Goodwill) $1.50
sweater - (St. Vincent De Paul) $1.49
necklace - (Target) $1.99

Nylon Challenge: Sweaters Weather

Aaaah! It's that time of year to get really cozy and cuddle up with a love one (or a sweater!) Now this "Nylon Challenge" is actually from Teen Vogue. The November issue of the magazine highlight sweater fashion. How big baggy sweaters are double up as a dress, how cord knit sweaters are back in, and of course where to find these sweaters for ridiculous prices.


I mean let's be honest for a minute. 2nd hand stores and places like Goodwill were MADE for sweaters. Trust me, you'll find the best sweaters. For example:

Goodwill
a. $5.99 b. $7.00 c. $4.99
d. $3.99 e. $3.00 f. $8.99

g. $6.50 h. $3.00 i. $3.99


Salvation Army:
a. $5.69 b. $4.99 c. $7.89
d. $2.99 e. $4.49 f. $5.85

Secrets Sweater Shopping Tip: The best secret is go at the end of the month to shop at Salvation Army because most likely everything is 50%. Also if you want an oversized sweater look to the men's section. They might be a little more money but they have way cooler designs. I am talking about REAL Bill Cosby sweaters.

ALSO: I am going to be in New York for a poetry show and for my birthday (Halloween)! I will take as many pictures as I can. I will update my twitter and the GUTTERSNIPE tumblr.

Side note: I figure out my Halloween costume. I am going to be My Little Pony!
