The Thrift Report: July 2010
http://thethriftreport.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 18, 2010. I don't even want a rebound. Its been over three weeks since I stepped in the Chloe showroom, and I'm still hung up. The side effects of this trip are far more intense than I ever expected. Lust for silk blouses. Obsession with the following colors: Buttercream, Rose, Beige. Conducting endless Ebay, Yoox, Bluefly, and Outnet searches for any semi-affordable apparel from the label. Spacing out at work dreaming over the Phoebe Philo days. Elizabeth and James Havana Blouse. Here is a ...

The Thrift Report: In Brief
http://thethriftreport.blogspot.com/2010/07/in-brief.html
Saturday, July 10, 2010. Even to this day, my father asks me each week, with enthusiasm on par with a day camper hopped up on pixie sticks, "DO YOU KNOW WHAT TUESDAY IS? I've learned to read this trick and know that this excitement is not only fabricated for the moment and to catch me off guard, but out of sheer stupidity. The answer is, "Its trash day." Yep. I give you: Stella McCartney Knickers of the Week. Another example is shoe designer Charlotte Olympia. Photos: Luisa Via Roma. I know these shoes c...

The Thrift Report: Someone's missing
http://thethriftreport.blogspot.com/2010/07/someones-missing.html
Thursday, July 1, 2010. First, I want to say how great a time I had at Reuben Harley's ( Big Rube. Of Mitchell and Ness fame, photography event at the Vivant Art Collection. Not only was it for a great cause, Big Rube's photos were awesome. He really captures street life along with some super glam moments. These are just some of my favorites. I would honestly put the entire collection on here.but that's what style.com is for. All photos above: Style.com. Posted by Maddie B. Stray from the Mode. My blog i...

The Thrift Report: Lets get back to it
http://thethriftreport.blogspot.com/2010/09/lets-get-back-to-it.html
Sunday, September 5, 2010. Lets get back to it. I know, I know. It has been an unacceptable amount of time since I have written. Getting back to school has been great and this weekend I experienced my first taste of crispy weather in months. yum. I am going to do this sort of as an on going guide, mainly because there is just too much for me to cover in one post and I feel like I can break this up into styles versus specific pieces. PART 1: BACK TO BASICS. Grey is such a wonderfully safe and chic basic, ...

The Thrift Report: He reminded me
http://thethriftreport.blogspot.com/2010/07/he-reminded-me.html
Wednesday, July 7, 2010. Karl, why you gotta do me like that? After a not so stellar crochet-infested-disco-suede-orgy that was Resort '11 for Chanel, I was a little upset with my favorite German. All is good now. Holy Couture. To further intensify the gravitational pull, stacks of bulky bangles adorned the wrists of models and the amazing mid-calf boots were reminiscent of slouchy paper bags. I highly recommend viewing the entire collection over at style.com, but I shall continue posting my favorite...

The Thrift Report: Trend Watch: Hey there fashion
http://thethriftreport.blogspot.com/2010/07/trend-watch-hey-there-fashion.html
Monday, July 5, 2010. Trend Watch: Hey there fashion. After viewing the Resort collections, I realized this whole sock and sandal thing is real. The Teen Vogue novelty I considered it back in 2004 has seeped into a notable amount of designers collections and I'm a little worried. If you don't follow fashion week as religiously (and completely insanely) as I do, I'll show you what I'm talking about. Yeah It's fashion now. Here's some proof:. All photos: style.com. Don't get me wrong, new trends excite me&...

The Thrift Report: May 2010
http://thethriftreport.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 20, 2010. In the words of Will Smith and Jazzy Jeff: Summer Summer Summertime, Time to Sit Back and Unwind. After selling my college textbooks and getting back a measly $63, I am home and so ready to get this summer started. I kicked off vacation with a weekend trip up to NYC with my mom. She was being taken by a furniture design company who put us up in a gorgeous room at the Bryant Park Hotel. We met up with my friend Chris for a fantastic lunch at Via Quadronno. Paté might out-flavor eve...
