Necklines-The Thrifty Six

Isn’t that a interesting theme, necklines? Because there are so many, actually! My favorite is the V-neck, but that’s not what I’m showing today. I’m very curious to see what my friends are wearing, are you?

Welcome to The Thrifty Six. We are a group of international fashion influencers who meet once a month in our little space on the internet to share our thrifty outfits. On the third Monday of every month, we will all share an outfit based on a theme that features pre loved wardrobe pieces. Shopping and reselling pre loved clothing is so much better for the environment and you can find some of the best fashions in thrift or charity shops. The Thrifty Six are here to inspire you to shop second hand.

Necklines

This top has a neckline I don’t wear very often. I usually don’t like high-necked tops. But this one is so cute. The print, of course too. It’s a bit of a Peter Pan collar. The top has buttons at the back and a trumpet sleeve. This top is pre-loved, from the brand I worked for, bought on Vinted.

Let’s see what my friends are wearing

I don’t like turtlenecks, but cowlneck tops are a nice alternative. For this look, I wore a thrifted CJ Banks cowlneck top in a fabulously versatile denim blue color and comfortable tech fabric with a pair of thrifted plaid Old Navy pixie pants. I usually wear animal print shoes with these pants, but to stay true to the thrifted theme, I wore thrifted floral Target loafers instead, and I loved the combination! (Finding fabulous new pairings from our existing closets is one of the best things about participating in style challenges.) I finished off the outfit with layered necklaces and a memory wire bracelet (all homemade except the tassel necklace) and a simple pair of gold hoop earrings that were part of a grab bag purchase.

I have had this blue thrifted dress for years but this is the first time I have worn it. I was drawn to the color and the unique embroidered neckline when I purchased it. The silhouette is not very flattering on me so I have struggled to style it. Enter this newly thrifted floral robe which completely hides the unflattering silhouette and allows the beautiful cobalt blue color and the fancy neckline to shine! It was the perfect piece to highlight for this thrifty theme.

Necklines’ is the T6 theme for March, a fantastic opportunity to shamelessly display the most attractive part of any woman’s body – the collarbones!

Regardless of your age, shape or size, it’s highly likely that you have great collarbones, I’m always more than happy to reveal mine to the world!

So here I am completely unabashed in a scarlet red wiggle dress, freezing cold but feeling like a Hollywood film star!

I had my crew showcase the different options with crew neck tops because I feel like they get a bad wrap, haha.
Anyway, my contribution was wearing a crew neck with a v-neck.
Almost everything I’m wearing (besides the jewelry and glasses) is thrifted, and while the proportions are a bit wonky, I wanted it to look artsy and unique.
In fact, I thrifted jeans that were too long and sewed them up so they are cuffed, like the trend.
Now wait until you see my mom and Valerie’s options…”
