February Find #28


Well Chica's, this is the very last Fab February Find as it is the last day of the month and I thought I'd showcase an item that is the very essence of what I'm feeling right now... bright and cheery, fun and playful.

I grabbed these flats from Old Navy on clearance for $8.99 and I can't wait to wear them this spring. Of course, they are in one of my favorite colors, yellow! The reason I chose these as the last Fab February Find is because they are sort of the culmination of all my Fab February Finds.

They are light, fun, casual, playful, feminine, bright and comfortable. Everything I post on my blogs fits in several of these categories, but ALL of them must be comfortable. With two children, I need stylish clothing and accessories that I don't have to fuss with, but still look great in. I don't worry when I get a stain on them, I just wash them out or buy something new :) I swear my closet should have rotating doors lol.

Anyhow, there it is, #28. I'll see you Chica's in March ;)

Fab February Find #27

Today's Fab February Find is handmade. Yes! I made these. I had a pair of brown earring that I loved that were beginning to chip because I wore them so much lol

So, I got rid of all the paint and this beautiful iridescent shell color was underneath! I added a glass bead to each earring that would add a little color and viola!

I ended up with these fabulous earrings :)

Fab February Find #26


Morn-ting Chica's! I'm having an amazing morning. I just found out last night that all my hard work has paid off and I was invited and accepted into the honor society! (applause lol) I'm so excited!

But, today's Fab February Find is this yellow wooden necklace that I got for Christmas. My grandmother is the queen of giving some of the most unique and useful gifts. One year she got a spinning toothbrush, which I loved, and toothpaste :)

This particular year, we all sat in my aunt's kitchen and played the numbers game for each item she pulled out of the bag. This is one of the pieces I won. It's a basic necklace, but it looks very worn, which I like. This is definitely going to be one of my spring season staples. You guys know that I love yellow! :)

Fab February Find #24 & #25

Morning Chica's! Hope everyone is having a beautiful and productive day. I know I am.

These fab finds were actually gifted to me by a fellow blogger before she started her blog, 803urbanclass :) I believe there were for my 27th birthday and I'm telling you, I wear the necklace a lot. It's even been broken and repaired a few times which has changed it from it's original design, but still very fun and feminine.

These earrings were longer, but because I have a shorter neck, I just adjusted them so compliment my face. Besides, I hate when earring drag on my shoulders. It totally misses the point of having long earring :)

In a few days, February will be over and that will be the end of Fab February Finds... however, I may start March Madness to keep you all up to speed on my ever-growing closet :)

Caio Chica's! XO

Fab February Find #23

I found this vintage bib necklace while thrifting. It's a cream and smokey blue color. I don't know what the material is, but the blue remind of me small pieces of slate, which give the necklace a very cool and rustic feel.

$0.99 Chica's!

Fab February Find #22

This ring... I love! I don't have any other rings like it. It covers almost my entire ring finger and the antique, medieval feel reminds me of something Maid Marion would have worn in the Robin Hood movie.

I found this at Pay Half for a little under $5.

Fab February Find #18, #19, #20 & #21

Chica's, I've been shopping up a storm online and at the mall... I have a slight addiction to shoes. Just a slight one lol I love all heel heights, most colors, and vintage-esque pumps like the champagne and gold tipped shoes I blogged about earlier today. I'm still swooning over those lovelies. Here are a few pair that I bought on PoshMark this week.


Jessica Simpson - "Fade to Black" Peep Toe Pumps

Suede Guess Pointy Toe Booties

Mesh & Leather Guess Peep Toe Pumps

Nine West Leather Cutout Wedges
I made out like a bandit purchasing the first three pair at 3/$25 on PM and the Nine West Wedges were part of another bundle where I got two pair of shoes for $20 (so they were $10). I did say that I had a slight shoe addiction right? Ok :)

Fab February Find #15, #16 and #17

Look what I found on POSHMARK!!! I think I'm a little addicted... no comment lol

This is the gold clutch I was blogging about in my last Fab February Find post... cute right?

I'm still waiting on these in the mail as I just ordered them last night :)

I am a sucker for chandelier earrings and these deep coral earring are to die for.

And these vintage-inspired earrings are my life right now. They are sooo... sexy! I can't wait to dress them up and down and all around.

Oh and did I mention? I got this entire bundle on PM for a whopping $10!!!! Yes, I am a bargain-deal-making diva :)

Fab February Find #14

Snagged these from MadRag. These over sized earrings are gorg and will be the perfect accompaniment to the gold clutch I ordered on Poshmark... oh did I forget to say that I ordered some other accessories online in addition to shopping???

The only thing that matter is that I feel better, right? :)

I adore the texture which makes them unique and at $3, I'm feeling good. All I need is an outfit to wear them with. Don't worry. I'll make sure I blog the outfit :)

Fab February Find #12 & #13

Morning Chica's!!! I'm having a great day. Probably because I'm still high off of the fabulous finds that I found yesterday.

So, I went out thrifting and even did a little retail therapy. I hadn't been feeling well the last few days and I thought that some shopping might make me feel better... I was totally right! LOL

I bought this necklace and because there were Buy One Get One 1/2 Off, I bought the same necklace in a different color!

$7.49 for each necklace!

I scored these pieces at MadRag.

Fab February Find #10 & #11

Chica's, I know I've been slacking on my daily Fab Finds. Life gets in the way of my blogiberty (blog+liberty = blogiberty) :) Here are a few new additions to my jewelry collection:

While out thrifting today, I stumbled upon a new thrift store near the mall called Chic2Chic. Everything in this store is under $5... EVERYTHING! All the items I got today were only $1 each!

Silver Tribal Cuff: Fab February Find #10

Earrings: Fab February Find #11

Fab February Find #9

Can you say Tignanello? Tignanello (pronounced Tan-ya-nell-o or Teen-ya-nell-o) is a brand that I'd never heard of until I spotted the Bespoke on Poshmark and had to have it. Apparently they've been around for a very long time, making some of the most classic handbags I've ever seen. And you guys should know by now that I'm all about classic looks. These bags you can have engraved and personalized if you buy straight from the site www.tignanello.com. This is the bag I bought on Poshmark. I couldn't find this color on the site (making sure I was getting a good deal), but I think the fact that I can't find this red makes it all the more unique.



























Tignanello handbags are genuine leather and as I said earlier, if purchased from the site, can be personalized. The Bespoke (Polished Pockets style) is originally $169. They are having a sale on the Bespoke for $99. I paid $75 for mine on Poshmark! That's just shy of $100 off the original cost of an authentic Tignanello.

Here's one in purple, which is also unavailable online.

Fab February Find #8

I would be remissed if I didn't show off one of my most expensive pieces of costume jewelry. I can wear this piece with virtually anything and whatever I'm wearing is immediately jacked up like 10 notches, no lie. A white tee and jeans become more than a white tee and jeans with these bobbles around my neck.

I paid $50 for this, but I was able to put it on layaway and pay small increments of the purchase price at my leisure. You could say, I got the hook up lol

Fab February Find #7

This piece was actually a Christmas gift from my grandmother. For some reason, I am in love with sound of it Lol.

The light gray sheer fabric is adorned with these aluminum "coins" that give the shawl weight, but doesn't make it hard to wear.

It reminds me of something I saw on a cart at the mall with other jewelry that I love.

The great thing about this piece is that it doubles as a shawl/scarf and as jewelry.

Fab February Find #6

Fab February Find #6 is this over-sized cocktail ring. Nabbed from Claire's for $10.50, the dark grey rhinestone makes you feel rich. The rhinestone accompanied by the detail on the sides definitely makes the ring glamorous. I wouldn't trade this for any other ring. It's easily my favorite!

Fab February Find #5

Afternoon Chica's! It's cold here (South of Boston), expecting 1-2' of snow this weekend, but I'm just trying to stay warm and keep up with homework. I apologize for my late updates, but here is Fab February Find #5.

These vintage gold earrings have become a staple with my outfits. Whenever the outfit doesn't call for a necklace, these gold link earrings always come through; giving each look a bit of elegance.

I spotted these at a Salvation Army thrift store and had to add them to my collection of costume jewelry.  At $1.98, I'd say they're worth it!

Sincerely,
A GeekChicChica

I was surfing PoshMark... yet again, when I came across this hot pink wristlet clutch. I had already told the seller that I wanted a white summer dress from Gap she was selling (which will be styled in a later blog post), then I added this to the bundle. I got both for $20! I'd say that was a pretty sweet deal considering the never-worn Gap dress was $60 retail. I made out like a bandit.

The clutch has a leather-like texture that makes it feel more luxurious and easy to dress up or down. It's the perfect size for a wallet, cell phone, lip balm, and mini-Altoids (which I can't live without btw), etc.

Love it!

After wearing 4" heels all day, it's nice to have a pair of chic flats to run errands in. I picked these up for $10 and I adore them.

These are a sort of black suede material, great for fall weather. The chunky, gold chain detail is very classy.

I have only been able to wear these a few times on account of the snow and cold weather lately, but I love them. Every heel-wearing diva out there should carry a pair of flats and these are a cute, affordable choice for the fall.

I have dedicated the entire month of February, yes all 28 days, to showcasing some of the fabulous finds and thrifted treasures in my closet or soon-to-be. Initially, I wanted to thrift every day this month, but a student's budget has not allowed me that luxury. I'll still be thrifting items this month, but not every day. This is Fab Feb Find #1:


Faux Elephant Tusk Necklace - Old Navy $10.50
