The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book: Rompers, Jumpsuits, and Overalls
Welcome to The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book! Welcome! This is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. A while back, Nancy and I started The Bad Buy Book, a monthly series about our worst purchases. It was a lot of fun to do and we both learned something from it, too! Nancy learned that off-white against her face is not the most flattering color. And I learned that I have a serious problem resisting a good thrift shop find when it comes to pieces that fit “good enough” but “not quite right.” However, after running that series for a year, we decided to change it a bit. For this series, you can choose whether you want to share…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Rompers, Jumpsuits, and Overalls & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #125
It is that time again to share some of your favorite and least favorite items for June’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. This month we are featuring Jumpsuits. I have to be honest, I was a little nervous when Nancy and I decided on this theme. I did not own a single jumpsuit. But I do have two pairs of overalls. So I am leaving this month’s theme open to interpretation, otherwise I will not have anything to share! But I did just find two adorable rompers this weekend that I am hoping to have photographed by the time we post the next edition on June 15. In any event, please share with…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Polka Dots & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #121
It is that time again to share some of your favorite and least favorite items for May’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. This month we are featuring Polka Dots. I love a good polka dot print. I find them so fun and whimsical with a touch of nostalgia. Big or little, bold or subtle, polka dots just sort of bring smiles, don’t they? And they are perfect for mixing with other patterns like stripes and florals. Next week, Nancy and I will be posting the fifteenth edition of The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book and we would love for you all to join us! The theme for May is Polka Dots! Any polkas dot will do…they can be on pants or…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Skirts
It is that time again to share some of your favorite and least favorite items for April’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. This month we are featuring Skirts. I don’t have many skirts compared to the abundance of other articles of clothing in my closet. But I do have a few and I have found myself wearing them with more and more frequency recently. Skirts are just not something that I am very comfortable wearing, but still a girl needs some flirty fun skirts to play around with! One week from today, Nancy and I will be posting the fourteenth edition of The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book and we would love for you all to join us! The…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Long Cardigans
It is that time again to share some of your favorite and least favorite items for March’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. This month we are featuring long cardigans. I have a closet filled with cardigans of various lengths, but I definitely prefer a longer one that at least covers my bum. I appreciate the elongating effect of a duster length cardigan as well. So you may be wondering what constitutes a “long” cardigan”. I guess anything that goes past your bottom and beyond will do! In just 11 days, Nancy and I will be posting the thirteenth edition of The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book and we would love for you all to join us! The theme for…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Graphic Tees & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #108
It is that time again to share some of your favorite and least favorite items for February’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. This month we are featuring graphic tees. I love a good graphic tee, but it really has to speak to me in order for me to add it to my collection. For example, I love my Wonder Woman tees (I have three), but you’ll never catch me wearing any other type of superhero on my top. Just not my thing. I also am a fan of vintage (or vintage inspired) band tees, but it has to be a band that I actually enjoy, otherwise I feel too much like a…
