A Little Valentine Pep

A mirror can be such a bitch sometimes. You ever look at it and look so good but then when you see your pictures, it's like UGH!? Yea, today was one of those days. It was so weird wearing my own hair out. I had it wrapped for 2 days and finally let it out. My hair takes forever to grow! And I love my wigs! 

This is what I wore for Valentine's Day. Me, Troy, and Brayden went out to Friday's for dinner. We don't really do anything special for this day, unless it's dinner. We're perfectly fine with cuddling and watching tv. My husband always surprises me with gifts so V-Day is just another day to us. I hope you all had a great V-Day!









I bought this peplum today at Goodwill for $2 and some change. On Mondays, everything is 50% off after 12pm. It had shoulder pads but I cut them out, and it does run kind of big. But it's so cute and it's my first piece of peplum I've worn. I get so jealous when I see other bloggers post their goodies from thrift stores cause they're super cheap. My Goodwill is kind of expensive for the stuff they have. That's why I will only shop on Mondays from now. (Or Wednesdays, which is their 20% off for military day.)













Top: Thrifted
Watch: Gifted
Jeans: F21
Purse: F21
Heels: ShoeDazzle

I know what you mean about charity/goodwill shops being expensive. i think they have caught on that many people now shop from there.

Love this top, I can't believe you thrifted this. Great v-day look, I especially like that you went with pants and not a dress, because that's the normal girly thing to do...I'm guilty of wearing a v-day dress myself.lol

Gorgeous! I absolutely love the peplum top, and it's even better that it's a thrift find. Believe me. I feel the same way about people's thrift hauls. I never find anything special in mine, and when I do, they're so expensive, that I might as well buy it brand new. LOL! :) You look great! Love how you styled it.

The only time I thrift is when my Salvation Army is having 50% off days! Then I go crazy and come home with a huge haul. :) That top is sooo cute and I probably would have brought it home too. When you find a vintage peplum top, it makes it so much cooler! Glad you had a great Valentine's Day. Just spending time with the ones you love is sufficient. :) <3
