The Poshmark App

If you’re anything like me, then you have a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear.

I have a small closet, so I have a massive overflow and I don’t even wear all of it!

I came across an article this summer in a magazine (I can’t for the life of me remember which one, but if I do I’ll make sure to update!) about closet clutter and how to reduce it, one suggestion was the app Poshmark. I signed up and found that not only could I make money while getting rid of clothes that I wasn’t wearing, but I could also buy things second hand, in great condition, and at a fraction of the retail cost! I didn’t know what to do with myself…so many great features! While there are some minor draw backs as with anything (think eBay) it really is a great community to be apart of and is so worth checking out!

So far I’ve made over $500 and I haven’t even been signed up for a year!

If you do sign up* or already have a Poshmark closet, follow my closet and let me know so I can follow yours.

*The app is free and get a $5 credit with the code: HVIMR

DIY: Sequin Sweatshirt

I am forever finding projects on Pinterest that I want to do, but don’t really ever get around to actually doing them. So when I saw the sequin sweatshirt diy on A Beautiful Mess, I didn’t think I’d do it, but I wanted to.

Durning my trip to Old Navy, I bought a sweatshirt similar to the Forever 21 top that was used on A Beautiful Mess. I love F21, but I live in Vermont and there isn’t one in the state. Nor is there a Target. Google it.

Because my sweatshirt was dark gray I had to use a white paint pen instead of a marker so I could see what I was doing, but other than that I just followed their steps and hoped for not the worst…

I am really impressed with how it came out. And don’t worry, I crossed the T before sewing it.

I love it and I feel super accomplished!
