Fab Find - Dress Suit


I'm always disappointed with how the colors turn out in my shots. This was an amazing suit - the sheath dress, the matching jacket and the matching scarf. All in the most wonderfully rich golds and browns. The print is pure Tone III, still and solid.

I don't know that I'd wear all of these pieces together, but I wanted every single piece in my wardrobe - but I'm not a size 8. I think the whole set was under $100 at the consignment shop!

What a Fab Find!

If anyone ever wants to know where to get these - just send me a message!

Fab Find - Etcetera Suit



Great Suit at one of my favorite consignment stores. For just over $100 this two piece pantsuit from Etcetera. I really wish the colors would show up better. The corduroy has a wonderful richness, and stripes in all of our great colors. It was so soft. Do you see the angles of the pocket flaps and the lapels as well as the squared off edges of jacket itself. This item originally sold (about 2 years ago) for about $280.

Fab Finds

Fab Finds
These are things I run across in my day to day life. They might be in a thrift store, or a consignment shop or a regular store. Usually they are something that is in some way inappropriate for me, (wrong size, wrong price, doesn't fit) but would be perfect for someone else. Or, they are just unique in some interesting way.

I post these things to get you thinking. Usually its something you wouldn't find the ordinary retail store these days. As opposed to the Tone III items from traditional stores that I'll post when I see them. I will try to give you the brands and the store for those.

Fab Finds are more One Of A Kind. Would love to see a picture of your Fab Finds when you find them!

Fab Find - Python for Tone III

Python is getting a lot of press as one of the big "must-have" fabrics and textures for Fall 2011. I was looking around at a lot of items and found some beautiful items for Tone III! Every one of these items can be found online.

The angled earrings are great at $25, check out topshop.com.


This is a skirt!!! Sequins, a bit of black, have to see it in person, but soooo cool. But, no one over 30, okay? You can find it on the All Saints site.


The Shirise.com site has this beautiful Falchi bag. Great shape, and goldtone chainlink strap.

Fab Find - Green St John Pump - 8.5



Just found the most beautiful green St John pumps at a Dallas consignment store - size 8.5.
Yummy... (sorry the image is upside down - I'll get better)
Look at the angle of the shoe, the squared-off toe, the perfect green, the gold-tone squared buckles. The shoe is definitely Dynamic, Rich, Textured, Angled, Sure and Substantial. A perfect shoe!
