The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book: Grayish Greys

January has more gray days than most months for many of us so this month we are celebrating the grayish greys in our closets.

The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book is a monthly series hosted by Nancy of Nancy’s Fashion Style and myself. Every month, we invite you to share a photo or two of your Good (or Bad) Buy items that fit the stated theme. We ask that you also provide a short description explaining if the item you are sharing was a Good Buy or one that you will be saying Good-Bye to (formerly known as Bad Buys). Nancy and I will both publish a round up post featuring all of the submissions on the 15th of each month.

Anyone who would like to participate and be featured can send us their photos with a short description via email. You do not have to be a blogger to join. Anyone is welcome! We will give you the theme for the next month at the conclusion of each post. Photos will be due to us by the 10th of the month.

If you sent me a photo, but do not see it in my post, be sure to check Nancy’s post. If you don’t see your photo in either post, please let us know right away and we will add it. Sometimes the submissions get lost in the shuffle.

And Me…with a Good Buy

magical mushroom hoodie — “This light gray hoodie is splattered with a colorful mushroom print, which is how I prefer to wear grays…with lots of bright colors. It was definitely a Good Buy! I bought it on one of my road trips to Asheville, North Carolina, a few years ago and it has been my favorite hoodie ever since. Sadly, I misplaced it over the summer during a visit to my sister’s house. We believe it to still be in my sister’s house but it remains lost despite our search efforts. And now I must pray to Saint Anthony…

Dear Saint Anthony, please come around. My mushroom hoodie is lost and I would like it found. Also Ralph’s gym bag needs to be found as well. Please. And thank you.”

And a Good-Bye

“When I first purchased this gray sweater knit dress, I loved how soft it was and I ended up buying a second one in a dark mustard color. But then I hated the way it fit me and I got very overheated wearing it. I don’t think I ever even wore the mustard one. I recently said Good-Bye to both dresses when I passed them onto a dear friend. Hopefully she has better luck with them!”

Up Next for February: Scarves

You are invited to join us in February to share your favorite (or least favorite) Scarves. Blanket scarves, skinny scarves, wraps, or neckerchiefs. If you have a swath of cloth that you can wear around your head, neck, or shoulders, you can call it scarf and share it with us! You are welcome to send two photos if you’d like to be featured on both blogs. Remember to include a brief description about your submissions. Please submit your photos and descriptions by the 10th of February to shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com or to info@nancysfashionstyle.com so we can add you to The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book.
