18 Days of Grand Haul: How a Scarf Can Change an Entire Outfit

November 17, 2013 Abby Hathorn1 Comment

Hello, fabulouses! Have you ever wondered how something as simple as a scarf could change the entire look of an outfit? Well, today’s Grand Haul outfit is simply that!

To add more style to the last Outlet Shops of Grand River Grand Haul ensemble, I tossed on a beautiful pink Charming Charlie scarf and tied a lose knot at each end. This scarf is one of my absolute favorites because I got it for a fabulous deal, and it is super soft! FAB-U-LOUS. Who knew dressing fashionable on a budget could be so easy!

Check out the video below to see the fabulous deal I got on the pretty pink scarf!

Hello, my fabulouses! I just got back to “the ‘Ham” (aka Birmingham) from another meeting about the movie! I am super excited to announce that I will soon be fitted for my costumes, and we will begin filming the trailer in a couple of weeks! I am so pumped right now that I can barely contain myself…or it could just be a little late night buzz from the Starbucks I had when I got back in town…hm…Anyway, once the trailer is filmed and ready to be published, I will be sharing the video with all of you! I absolutely cannot wait:)

Now, let’s chat about today’s Grand Haul outfit.

It is important to create your own style in the fashion world–never hesitate to be a little daring with an outfit! Taking a walk on the wild side, I paired cozy pink cords with an orange Guns N’ Roses sweatshirt from Wet Seal for a look that is perfect for campus, coffee, or a casual movie date.
