    • It’s 32 degrees out right now but LAST week, it was “chilly” enough for a cardi - for 5 minutes anyway! I’m wearing my $6 striped dress, $8 long cardi, $15 Korkease clogs, and leopard print @unbelts! I had a floral scarf ready to add another pattern into the mix, but a girl can only endure so much heat! 😥😆 ... ... ... ... ... #thespiritedthrifter #inspiration #outfitoftheday #thriftedootd #thriftedfashion #momfashion #realoutfitgram #momstyle #thriftfinds #thrifting #thrifter #reallifestyle #secondhandstuff #secondhandfirst #patternmixing #stylish #fashiongram #lookoftheday #fashionpost #instastyle #thriftblogger #houstonthrift #thriftshop #houstonblogger #houstonfashion #fashionover40 #thriftlife #thrifteatdrinkrepeat
    • I was trying to get a shot of my thrifted earrings but every time I looked at the camera I felt like I was making eyes at myself 🤦🏼‍♀️ so instead here I am looking aloof. Not sure which is better! 🤷🏼‍♀️ Anyway, the earrings were $3 and I love them! Just clean them with rubbing alcohol and you’re good to go! The necklace is one of my faves by @shedoescreate! ... ... ... ... ... #thespiritedthrifter #selfie #selfiemusings #thrifted #thriftedfashion #thrifty #thriftedaccessories #thriftedearrings #thrift #thrifter #thriftblogger #houstonthrift #thriftlife #thriftorshoplocal #ethicalfashion #sustainablefashion #thriftstyle #accessoriesoftheday #thrifteatdrinkrepeat
    • Today is a VERY important day... it’s #NationalCoffeeDay and I celebrated *totally on purpose* by making a quick little video about Spanish Coffee this morning! 😏I put the video and all the recipe details in a blog post, link in profile.

    • I don’t buy retail very often but it turns out a new $4 tee from Target and some bright lipstick really do lift a girl’s spirits! 💄👚 Find out what my “big” problem is on my most recent post, link in profile.👆🏻(This is one of those rare times you could run out and get the same top and we can run around all samesies.) ... ... ... ... ... #retailtherapy #target #targettherapy #thespiritedthrifter #life #musings #fullmoon #lipstick #ilovelipstick #floraltee #theheartwantswhatitwants #liftthespirits #thrifteatdrinkrepeat
    • Yay Fall! Yay mustard cardi weather! Yay Fall florals! Yay first 🏒 game of the season! And, believe it or not, yay pants! 😳(Because they are perfect condition $4.80 Hudson jeans from @mamresale) I’m counting my blessings today. Tell me about your blessings today so we can all 🙌🏻 together! ... ... ... ... ... #thespiritedthrifter #hashtagsarenotablessing #thrifter #thriftedfashion #thrift #thrifting #thriftblogger #thriftstorefinds #hudsonjeans #mustardcardi #fallflorals #happyfallyall #thrifteatdrinkrepeat
    • Join me in a toast to two of the most beautiful words I’ve ever heard: mucus & BENIGN! • I got the official word today about my biopsy and am so incredibly relieved (though I still have questions). • The glass from my dear friend @quilting_fairy says “every hour is happy hour” and those are not mere words but a reminder to choose my attitude. (I’m not always good at it as, eh hem, you may have noticed, but I try.) • My $1 tee from @kcmcharity says “My peace I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled. John 14:22” and I’m basically just going to wear it forever and ever amen. • Every word comment thought prayer and echo of love has carried me through this very stressful season and I am so grateful. ❤️ xoxo Nicole
    • Just wanted to say thanks for waiting... I’ll be back soon. 🌼
    • This morning, on my way to the hospital, I listened to a song sent by my friend Teresa - "It is Well" by Bethel music. Then, when I got to the hospital, the one other patient there so early was wearing a t-shirt that said "WELL". Then, another family came in the waiting room and their daughter was wearing a Kutless "It is well" t-shirt. * Okay, I got it God. "Well" became my word before anything started. Not that I felt it meant a well result but that all would be well despite anything. * Last night, I prayed for just one sympathetic medical person, someone who would acknowledge the brokenness of this system in some way. The first nurse in the pre-op area was just that, right down to when she said, "Well I can vote and I will vote for you." * My doc (couldn't really describe him as "hot" despite my insta-story wishes, sorry Dr. S) said my CT scans were promising. Then after the surgery while I was still out, he explained to my husband that the lump seemed to be filled with mucus (one of the worst words ever and TMI, apologies) but that we won't know for sure until we get the biopsy results. * All in all, this is THE BEST outcome I could hope for and I need to acknowledge first of all my good good God - which BTW I would do even if this was the exact opposite news. God of all comforts, God of peace that surpasses understanding, sovereign and faithful - even when I am scared. Next I need to thank all y'all who have prayed and offered your support. It means so much to me, especially knowing that so many have come from their own battles of much greater magnitude and with strength, grace and perseverance that is humbling and inspiring. * I have more thoughts about all this for another day but just felt I should share this great news and just dwell with it until I know more. * xoxo Nicole
