Thrifty Girl Vintage: A Painting I Never Forgot

Thursday

A Painting I Never Forgot

Sometimes you see a color combination and it stays with you your whole life.  When I was in college, every year my mom and I would attend a craft fair in a nearby town.  One spring, as I was walking along the tree lined path that wound through all the venders, I saw a painting displayed on an easel and I fell in love with the colors.  It was an acrylic portrait of a woman and man sitting on a couch and it was painted in the secondary colors of orange, green and purple.  I wish I could have bought that picture, but $100 for a college student was a lot of cash.  I didn't get the painting, but I kept my love of orange, green and purple.  My OOTD uses orange and green.  Maybe next time I'll include all three?















This is OPI polish in Last Friday Night over Tammy Taylor polish in Breakfast at Tiffanys.



What I'm wearing:
Green Cardigan, $20, Target
Orange skirt, $4, Bargains & More (local thrift store)
Glass Bead Necklace, handmade by my mom
Beaded sandals, $5, Family Dollar

Total cost of Outfit:  $29

I love collecting inspiration for styling items from color combinations that I spot in nature, art or even a building! I like your skirt, too!
