Just a quick and partial shot of the outfit I wore out to see the Rose Parade floats on New Year's Day. We were too tired from NYE to make the actual parade, but it was still a bunch of fun to see the floats up close after they parked. I over-estimated how cold it would be and ended up stripping off my jeans in favor of a single layer of fleece tights under my tunic. Not pictured are my burgundy Timberland Rudston boots, which I decided to keep after all - I'd planned to resell them since they are too high for work, but they really turned out to be comfy for walking in my off-time. Please excuse DH's thumb. :)
Bonus pics of my favorite floats! I guess I have a soft spot for the animals, and especially for pet adoptions. >^..^<

I'm just your average working stiff who loves nice things and hates to pay for them. This blog outlines my efforts to navigate that treacherous shopping/saving divide through swappin', thriftin', and even a little resellin'. Many of the pieces in my wardrobe cost me just $1! We've heard a lot about people "living above their means" in recent years; I'm championing the concept of living large *below* your means - whatever that means for you. :)
