<\/a>Laura picked it up on our Goodwill Thrift Trip last September, which is also where I met and befriended her and she\u2019s now part of my Goodwill Gang! Ellen Tracy items are featured at stores like Nordstrom and this blazer probably retailed for about $150.<\/p>\nShe paired it with the contrasting, but vibrant turquoise blouse. The bright green and blue play off each other beautifully. The rest of the outfit features not-so-basic black. The leggings were Laura\u2019s own, but the flat, leather, studded boots by Botkier are a fabulous designer find. The suede clutch is by Loft and is big enough to hold her essentials. Don\u2019t limit yourself to \u201ctraditional\u201d colors this season. Branch out and experiment with festive hues, and pairing them with some high-end designer boots doesn\u2019t hurt either! Be on the lookout at your local Goodwill for some standout colors this December!<\/p>\n Blazer: $6.50 From my closet to yours, <\/p>\n About The Blogger<\/strong><\/p>\n Kirsten is a 40-something mom, wife and marketing professional.
