Alexandria, Virginia: Thrifted Style in Old Town

11/16/2013

Autumn Sweater

By Eden Haney
QuailBellMagazine.com

Old Town Alexandria's Waterfront Park has captured the imagination of many Washingtonians. It beckons you with its sparkling marina and sweet, eclectic shops and restaurants for neighbors. And maybe because it's older than most of the District or maybe because it's on the Virginia side of the Potomac, everything there moves just a little slower, though still at Northern Virginia's head-swirling pace. Eden Haney put together this casual, thrifted look by stealing a cue from the Plus Size department. Just because you're not a 2XL doesn't mean you can't wear a 2XL sweater. Big means comfy and, in this case, elegant. -CS

We could slip away
Wouldn't that be better?
Me with nothing to say
and you in your autumn sweater

How to Setup Solar

Step 1. Create a Homepage

Even if you already have a home page, you'll need to create a new one since Solar needs a blank page to automatically pull and display your blog posts in the magazine layout. You can create a new homepage by going to "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Standard" page.

Step 2. Apply "solar" Page Layout

Once you create a new homepage, apply the "solar" page layout to the new homepage. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, select the homepage on the left, and under "HEADER TYPE", select "solar".

Step 3. Create A Blog

If your site doesn't have a Weebly "Blog" page, then create a new "Blog" page. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Blog Page".

Step 4. Setup Blog Automation

Come back to this screen and fill in the input boxes with the URL of your "Blog" page and 3 category URLs from that blog.
