I am beginning a regular Frugal Fashionista post about dressing in designer outfits for under $15. I began receiving many requests for tips on shopping the 2nd hand stores without looking like you did. 🙂
For those of you that just read my blog for fun, and info, and have no interest in blogging – my sincerest apologies. 🙂
Seeing as it was in Nashville, I did most of my processing with Emily and The Nester on our eight hour ride home. I have known them for years, but the opportunity to share, and pick each others brains about everything having to do with life, may have been worth the whole trip.

I am someone who loves to cherish friendships in real life. I never thought I could actually make friends on line (that might not be potential balded headed stalkers posing as a mommy blogger), nor that I would appreciate the depth of closeness one could feel when you “meet” for the first time, and it feels like you’ve known them forever.
It’s possible, probable, and perfectly wonderful.
I roomed with Kimba and Rhoda (we missed you, Kristy), who I have already gone on about in past posts…both are just like you would think they are.
Talented, inspiring, and a blast to be around.
I think Rhoda and Kimba still love me even though I kept waking them Saturday night when they were trying to sleep – so sorry.
She and her sister, Missy, are another wonderful duo (like Emily and the Nester) to watch and wish you had a sister relationship like them.
Meredith from Like Merchant Ships is a new found blogging friend. We share our love for frugal homemaking. She is wisdom personified, and such a sweet, gentle spirit. 🙂
So many others to mention, but I am sticking with only those I had a picture of….bummer.
Frugal Fashionista UPDATE:
I know I said I would do a whole fashion show of all my designer clothing outfits for under $10, but I forgot to take pictures…ugh. I will have to re-dress and do this for real. Not the re-dressing part….just the fashion show. I think we’ll have to do a frugal fashion week. 🙂
