Thriftanista Style File: RACHEL Rachel Roy dress
I had a post anniversary date this week. Date #3 since V. Woohoo! We went to see Fela and it was amazing. I'm so glad we were able to go. Having seen it, I now want to:
1. Read Fela's book.
2. Visit the Shrine.
3. Learn to move my "clock" like these ladies.
4. Start a revolution -- Thrifters Unite!
What I Wore
I did a Salvation Army drive by over the weekend. It was on my way to my destination and I just stopped in for 30 minutes or so. I came out with this little dress from RACHEL by Rachel Roy for Macy's. The tag says x-small and I was about to put it down. I remembered my own rule and tried it on anyway. It fits and I love it.

Do you ignore size labels when trying on clothes?

I love the dress. Let me borrow it...there may be more babysitting (i.e. dates in your future if you do).

And yes, I ignore labels. I can usually look at a garment and tell if and how it will fit, regardless of size. And don't let it be a good deal 'cuz I may just disregard the fit altogether and buy the thing anyway just to get the deal!
Vanity sizing will have me in a 0 soon!
True shopaholic. My mom buys deals like that. If she can't fit it she will find someone who will or donate it.
