Some of my favorite finds

These are some of my favorite finds from the past year. I wonder if you can guess my favorite color?

This works well with slim-fit jeans and my black boots. Shirt cost - $3.

Not the world's most flattering, but it can't be beat for coziness! Sweater cost - $5 (with tags still on!)

This dress is super versatile: With a sweater, it's great for fall. With a camisole underneath, it's perfect for summer. Dress cost - $5. Necklace - $1.

I found a blog a few years ago that showed how you can embellish plain T-shirts like this. I love the concept but I'm not skilled in the fabric arts, so I settle for buying my second-hand.
