Today was pretty productive. Guess I was getting a jump on my resolutions. That meant having worked out, gotten dressed, and on my way by ten. Mind you it is Break for us students, think of this as a practice run, a warm up lap, for when I have to do it by 7:30 as of Monday.

Spent the day in Downtown and went to the 6th floor museum and must say, I always paused my headset to check out Jackie Kennedy's outfit.

LOVE this one. and I am betting that Cheetah Is the New Black would agree with me. What a perfect coat to welcome in 2011. On that note,

 HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I think it is fair to say that most woman in Texas, and probably Oklahoma and Arkansas, have spent a day shopping at the First Monday Trade Days in Canton. Not only is there amazing crafts, and jewelry, and clothes, and home decor,but also there is alot of cute junk to get your creative juices flowing. Today I waked away with some adorable vintage photographs that I plan to make into greeting cards, and this watch.

It's a cheetah faced menswatch. YES. 12 bucks!

So the moral of this story is that if yall ever find yourself in our neck of the woods, with a serious shopping craving, and you check the calender and its the thurs-tues around the first monday of the month, GO!

SO. Wow, here we go! My adventure in fashon blogging begins. I take that back- my adventure in fashion blog production begins. This is my firstborn blog. And let me tell you, this is intimidating stuff. So with little experience and a lot of faith I would like to formally welcome you to The Cheap Girl in a Chic World's blogspot. Enjoy!

But heres a little story about this fur vest. For a while I had been deciding on the fur vest trend and if it would find its way into my own personal closet. Well, by the time I did they were in stores everywhere and had bought one for more than I would have liked to pay. I even had resolved that I would make one my own thanks to P.S i made this. but lo and behold I found this little gem at a highway side garage sale, with the tags still on. crazy right? Maybe it will become my lucky fur vest. A furry godmother per se.
