When I started shopping for this project, I KNEW that I wanted a Navajo inspired sweater and low and behold, it was the first thing I found! Pure dumb luck, I tell ya.

My luck didn't run out, though. I also found those BRAND NEW American Eagle Jeans {that are actually sold out and not available in stores} at Plato's closet! How is that even possible?

John Wayne ain't got nothing on my fringe game, hell no...

 Unmentionables are not from a Thrift store. Just to clarify.




Now link up, so I can check out all your outfits. I KNOW there are going to be some fabulous ones, and y'all embraced the challenge. Mammy Janna is so proud!



The voting is open to EVERYONE, so get in on the action:


In case you were wondering where I was yesterday, I got to "Pin" my soldier at his promotion ceremony! I will tell you all about it and share some video soon :)


PS. "Pin" means punch...just wait 'till you see the video.

    Can't wait to see the promotion video! When Kyle got promoted to 1LT back in 2009 it was a pain to really inflict pain because he was in his dress blues boo lol...I missed his promotion to CPT really bummed about that. The next one I will make up for his haha. :)

    You did awesome on your outfit!!! I have a Navajo inspired sweater and I know I paid a lot more for mine then you. And brand new jeans. Score!!! I feel like I can hardly even find anything at Marshall's so I feel like my luck would be terrible at thrift shops. I'll have to come back later to check on outfits and vote.
