I've been super excited about these two Wallet-friendly Wednesday finds ever since I picked them up! I'll be wearing each item over the Christmas holiday weekend, but wanted to share a little preview until the outfits are blogged.The picture doesn't do the pencil skirt justice as it's really a beautiful royal purple color (opposed to the bluish tint it seems to have here). Hopefully I'll be able to capture the color better next time. It's sure to be a staple in my wardrobe for a long time to come. Little perks: it's 100% wool and cost only $4.00 (originally from Talbots, too. Goodness knows how much it initially sold for).
I don't think I've ever mentioned here how much I adore paisley prints. (Note to self: remember to share paisley sundress next summer) This blouse was an absolute steal at... get ready for it... 49 cents! With green (my favorite!) as its base color, it immediately captured my heart. After giddily showing my mother the blouse she remarked, "Oh, Ship'n Shore! I haven't seen that tag in a long time." She seems to think it could be from the 70's or 80's. Maybe the 60's?
Just out of curiosity, if anyone has any more knowledge about this it'd be greatly appreciated :)

Amazing finds, I love them both. I think this is your best ever wallet friendly Wednesday. Merry Christmas Emily xxxxx
Hey Emily! I like the Superia 200, but to be honest I only use it because my brother bought it and it was the cheapest one he found. I've never compared it with Superia 400, so if you do try it out, I'd love to know how you see it!

That's such a steal Emily!! I love the pattern and color and even the name. Wish I had more info on the company?
