Sun Aug 3rd - Come thrifting with me!

I spent this morning raiding some more thrift stores. I actually got some things from Goodwill, which is rare since I usually don't like their prices and selection of goods. I was pleasantly surprise this time around. I'll actually post some photos of stuff I've gotten recently, since I actually took the time to photograph them today.

My outfit for today wasn't exceptionally special or great. I just wanted to throw something on that I haven't worn yet, and this dress came to mind since I just rehemmed the length. It was originally ankle-length, and I can't stand having a dress that long tangling me up as I walk.



Dress - Thrifted
Purse - Thrifted, Vintage
Belt - my sister's closet
Shoes - Urban Outfitters

And here are some things I've bought in the past two days. There's actually quite a bit, so I'm not going to post all of them, but it was great having all these sales come in at once. The Salvation Army around my area is always pumping out 50% off sales, so it's fun to just randomly raid them for goodies.


Thrifted - Oscar de la Renta secretary blouse, vintage high-waisted shorts


Thrifted - dress, straw hat, vintage t-straps


Thrifted - ethnic knit vest
