Just Peachy- The Moneca Skirt

Hump Day!! Humpa humpa.. I went to this really cool sale on the weekend. This consignment store in town holds a fundraising sale every year. When people don't come back to claim clothes that didn't sell rather than take the clothes to the thrift store, the consignment store keeps them for this big annual fundraiser they have.  On the day of the sale, they rope off a big section of parking lot and dump big bags of clothes in sections all over the place.  You pay $10 per bag and you can fill the bag with as much stuff as you can pack into it.  As the piles of clothing  go down, they come out and replenish with more stuff.  All the money gets donated to a good cause like Feed the Hungry, or the SPCA, etc.  What a cool idea.  I went with my friend Moneca and we had so much fun.  I kept finding stuff for her and yelling out " Hey Moneca- what about THIS??? " She actually found this skirt for me and I love it.  So now its my official Moneca Skirt :)

Thanks to Cinderita for taking my photo today as well.. always fun to have an official photographer since that person is usually me :)

Ciao and have a super awesome fashionable day!! oxoxo Jodi

  3. I like how you have dubbed the skirt after your girlfriend. Is that a cut out in the skirt or an applique. It is a good way to raise money for a good cause.

  8. Love the Moneca skirt! That ruffle top is awesome, too! Perhaps I should plan a trip to the island next year for the fundraiser! Then we can find stuff for each other! We wouldn't play tug of war over anything since I'm like a foot shorter than you.

    Hope you're enjoying the late summer (if it's anything like here).
