Fan Fridays: Tights Challenge

I am in love with tights & I buy them way too often & never wear them.  Therefor my goal for February is to wear tights every day & document it here on Five Sixteenths.  I am also going to try to wear a lot of my (comfortable) shoes since I have a bazillion & I never wear them.


I started avidly collecting tights a few years ago when I found some bright teal ones at Target.  At this time I wasn't as, errrrmmm, creative with my outfits as I am now.  You can always find me wearing something crazy & awesome now.

Here are some tights I wish I owned:




Currently (not that I am buying any more any time soon) I have 18 pairs, a number perfect for such a short month like February.  I have so many & I love them so!

If you want to take part of this challenge, let me know! I'd love to link to your blog & have a little button for you to use:



Get to counting those tights, the challenge starts February 1st!

Sum Up Sundays: Thrifted Finds

A few days ago I posted about what I would love to find out thrifting.  Well I can mark off a few things on my list, including owls!!! Check out the list here.

I found a set of two for 2 bucks! One is for my sister & the other for me.  I am going to paint them because everyone loves a fun color.  He might even have a name!  Here they are:


I also found a pair of red shoes with a small little heel for .99 cents.  The two watches were $5.99. The red one is a wind up watch & I am pretty sure it is broken but I changed the battery in the other one & it works fine!  I have another watch that looks like the silver one only it is gold & has little rhinestones around it.  I need to grab a battery for that one too.


I am going to put a picture of my puppy in the wind up one so it's sort of like a locket.  Keep an eye out for that tutorial!

Happy Sunday! I can't believe we are already at the beginning of the 2nd week of 2011!
