October/November Thrift Finds

November isn't technically over yet, but here's everything I've thrifted over the last two months.

I can't believe I found a winter jacket that ticked off all of the boxes I wanted.  I was especially happy for non-zippered pockets.  I'm hoping it will keep me super warm this winter.  

I got this Lauren Conrad blouse, I'm usually a fan of her line and this is another pretty one.

This sweater is similar to the brightly colored cardigan I got a few months ago but in a turtleneck style. I'm loving bright color lately.

I also got a flameless candle, a rainbow umbrella and a red lantern.

The candle and the lantern are for a project I've been working on (coming soon). How cute is the bird on the lantern?

I also had an idea for this umbrella but not sure it will happen.

This was a fun Goodwill score- a whole box of Christmas crackers!

Happening & Loving Lately

In no particular order, this is what's been happening/I've been loving lately.

I painted the inside of our front door in the same color as our kitchen island, Sea Cliff Heights by Benjamin Moore. It really brightens up this little spot

I didn't love this, but we had our heating and a/c systems replaced.  This was our disgusting, old furnace so it was badly needed.

We also replaced our old fence.  It looks pretty bad when it's all stacked up like this.

The new one is a major improvement.

We celebrated my birthday with the girls at a local-ish restaurant. They took the ferry over from NYC for the first time and loved it.

One of the neighboring towns was the location for filming Netflix's The Four Seasons-season 2.    This is Colman Domingo and Marco Calvani filming a scene.

It was so cool to see it being shot and to see all of the equipment, people, etc.

These guys were the stand-ins for the above actors. 

The day after my birthday dinner we were expecting a pretty bad storm. We got a lot of wind and some rain.

Going out to breakfast at a new to us place.

My mother in law made me this beautiful and intricate bouquet of money roses for my birthday.

Speaking of roses, we had some late blooming knockout roses in the garden that I cut and brought inside.

Adding a little fall decor to the island.

This house had the coolest silhouettes in their windows for Halloween. It was incredible! 

City Girl #2 and I saw Wicked For Good last night and I can't stop thinking about it!

Recreating Pinterest Outfits Fall/Winter 2025

I like pinning things on Pinterest but don't really go back and create outfits that often.  I decided to use items in my closet and search for outfit ideas to see what I could replicate.

 

I first tried searching for some green pants (that I got from Anthro with my birthday coupon) outfit ideas. I have a similar sweater to the inspiration pic. I added black boots like she has on.

I loved this look but I don't have an oversized cardigan like that so I borrowed a sweater from Mr. Click's closet. I added my beige Chelsea boots.  I should look for a cardigan like that when I'm thrifting.

I think this might be my favorite recreation.  It's comfortable but looks pulled together.

I wear jeans most of the time so I needed some jeans/sweater combos.  I don't usually think to layer a button down under my sweater like this and I love it.

I struggle with ideas for this striped lady jacket, the green pants give it a fresh look.  I never wear it all buttoned up but I will now!

I thrifted this blazer and I needed ideas for a casual look. I had everything else in my closet already.

I just got this striped long sleeve tee from Gap Factory and tried to recreate this look, down to the pose. It was hard, I don't think my legs are long enough!

I liked this idea for cropped cream pants and a camel cardigan with a black tee. It's a "ladies who lunch" look!

Here are the cream pants with a green sweater.   City Girl #1 knitted this gorgeous sweater for my birthday and I'll be wearing it a lot.

I liked this black turtleneck/green pants/black boots combo. I even tried the hat.

I like it better without the hat (on me).

Here's another special green sweater look with grey jeans.

And with black jeans.

A close up of the sweater.   Look at that detail. Girl is talented!

This outfit caught my eye because I have a similar striped sweater.  I tried it with the pants from a lounge set I have since they are the only brown pants I own. I would have never thought to put those two items together. I don't hate it --and it was so comfortable and cozy.

So how did I do with my Pinterest outfit recreation experiment?
