This skirt is one of the goodies I thrifted at the Haight Street Goodwill in San Francisco last week! It looked very Anthropologie-ish to me, and sure enough, both E. and A. exclaimed the same thing when they saw it. It’s made by Boden (a UK company), and they offer quite the selection of cute skirts and dresses in all sorts of wonderful colors and prints online.
And speaking of cute colors and adorable prints…I got a sneak peak at E.’s nursery yesterday! And I couldn’t love it more! It made me want to be baby e. so that I could just curl up in there and be happy. I think you’re all going to love it when she reveals some pictures of it soon. S.
I recognized that Boden skirt from a few seasons back. Great find!
Oh wow! I love your outfit, especially your thrifted skirt.
nice skirt
I would be so stoked to find Boden in a thrift shop! Looks great on you!
What a great find! I love me some goodwill awesomeness! :)
Great find! :)
The print of the skirt is adorable and I love the pop of red from the shoes!

What a great find! My thrift stores don’t have clothes that nice.
I adore your skirt! What a find! The pattern is fantastic, and the fit is perfect. I love it with the brown top and red shoes – this is such a great look!
Great outfit — I especially like the brown with the red shoes. Out of curiosity, though, what does the L on your necklace stand for?
You look so cute! I love the way the red of the shoes pops and yet still draws attention to the pattern in the skirt!!
Thanks, everyone!
@Jen – The “L” is somewhat random. I really liked these initial pendants at Anthropologie but they didn’t have “S”, so I got “L” because my cat’s name is Louie and my fiance’s last name starts with an L, so I figured that was reason enough. I’m sure I would have justified it by arguing that L stands for Life or Leftovers or something had those other options not been there since I was pretty set on getting it.

[...] of thrifting serendipity. Just recently, the lovely S. of Academichic sported a Boden skirt that she thrifted in San Francisco, and I lamented that I never find Boden in thrift stores here. And then two days later, while [...]
