10/7/2015

"I Like My Money Right Where I Can See It…Hanging In My Closet."
--
Carrie Bradshaw
Carrie, you couldn't be more wrong and, I'm guessing, for you feel the same. If you don't mind I like to reword that quote to read...
"I Like My Money Right Where I Can See It.... In My Savings or Checking"
 
Thrifting allows me to save on my must haves. Today's DIY UpCycled project, I took a dress and restructured into pants.

Everyone say HI to Trent Patterson our newest tagged model. 
Trent is an up and coming model and musician with other hidden talents that he is waiting to give to this world. With his talent and our thrifting abilities, we were able to pull of some amazing thrifted looks and we had a lot of fun doing it fun. The images below were actually taken inside my favorite thrift store. From the clothes to the fitting room, we made use of the entire Goodwill.

Add a little sexy to your look~ instead of going the traditional route, I paired the blazer with a mesh shirt.

Sometimes the formal look can be restricting. When I found this shirt and cardigan on the rack in the thrift store, it just screamed "pair us". This is a very comfortable and casual look with a hint of sophistication(I suppose lol).

In our silly mode- I am all about wearing something the wrong way. Sometimes the pattern on the inside of something is way better than the outer layer. Trent loves plaid items. He couldn't wait to switch this plaid vest inside out.

This isn't the first time seeing this face. John started with The Color Tag as a Thrifter [Not So] Anonymous, but we loved his look & personality sooooo much that we had to feature him once more! From a photo submission to featured model...

John came prepared with this awesome multicolored track jacket paired with a red snapback hat. What a perfect styling match! The red hat added the extra touch needed to make the red pop in his shirt. He was matching but not too "matchy" which seems to be a problem for most.

The crop top featured in this look is nothing new. It's actually the same sports bra featured in the Salt and Pepper look. This time, I decided to reverse it. Now the razor back is the front of the top giving it a new dimension with a very futuristic edge. Get creative with your thrifted items and, when you do, send your image(s) to colortag.thrift@gmail.com
