Rosa’s Closet: Frugal, Fabulous Clothing

When I showed you yesterday’s outfit , I mentioned how large the Gaylord Opryland Hotel is. 600,000 square feet.  Umm, hello.

Sorry this is so late in posting, but today’s the first “official” day of Blissdom Conference and we’ve been in session all morning.  I’m wearing some of my favorite Rosa’s Closet pieces. Rosa put together some resale and new clothing from her shop… right down to the jewelry.

The tank and jacket are new.  The boots and necklace are resale.  The jeans are mine.  Isn’t it a fabulous combo? I’ve gotten SO many compliments on the boots already. They’re a little funky and so fun!  (Click photos to enlarge.)

Tomorrow’s outfit is a little fun, a little edgy, and a little dressy. Savvy & chic. ;)

Rosa’s Closet: Resale & New Clothing

We arrived at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel last night for Blissdom.  Have you been here? This place is ridiculously huge. I need to find the square footage…

Anyway, check out my Rosa’s Closet outfit for today! Isn’t it cute?! Rosa put together a mix of resale clothing for me.  I LOVE the sweater. The belt detail is amazing.  I mixed the shirt & sweater with my own jeans.  So affordable.

I’m Going to #Blissdom!

blissdom blogging conference nashville 2011I attended Blissdom for the first time in February 2010. I learned a lot and met some fabulous people. I still talk to Lea Ann (Mommy’s Wish List) and Sara (Events, etc) via social media. LOVE them. I’ll be attending again this year from January 26-28.

Blissdom is a conference of 500 bloggers from across the nation coming together in Nashville for a blissful weekend of learning and fun!  I’m so thrilled to be decked out in trendy new & used duds from Rosa’s Closet, a fabulous resale clothing shop in East Grand Rapids, during my trip.

I’ll be traveling with other West Michigan bloggers in a Chevy #Traverse6 road-trip extravaganaza. ;)  Things will be business as usual around here and hopefully you won’t even notice I’m gone!

Stay tuned… Rosa’s Closet wants to give YOU something, too! The GIVEAWAY will be posted tomorrow.
