Thrift store whore

What once was a necessity is now an obsession. I've always wanted to share my fun finds with other "thrifties" , so here I am . I hunt for high end mostly, but occasionally find room for vintage and handmade frocks. I also collect eyeglasses, RX, sun, fashion and other oddities.

  • Had a quick minute to thrift before work. How cute is this handmade dress. Perfect for spring!

  • Since sweater weather is upon us, I thought  I would share some of my thrifted sweaters. The first is a  Ralph Lauren sweater set that I bought at a garage sale last summer. I paid a steep 6.00, which is expensive for a garage sale, but the woman had worked for Ralph Lauren!! Everything at the sale was Ralph Lauren suits, pants, ect, but everything else was too big. Bummer. Even though the set is a bit large, I can use it to layer up this winter.

    The orange pull over is another summer garage sale find, its a pull over Banana republic. I love this one so much, I even pulled it out for summer nights even though it wasn’t quite cool enough yet.  I paid  around 2.00.

    The gray and sheer cream sweaters are fairly new and both thrift store scores. The sheer cream one had the tag ripped out but I couldn’t resist, its softer than anything I’ve ever felt before! It was a must have. The long grey sweater is by Kenzie. It more of a lounging sweater, kinda big and wraps around you. Perfect for drinking morning coffee in. These were around both around 4.00 each.

    Since finding these wonderful pieces I have also thrifted many sweater shavers. They are so easy to find at larger thrift stores  and it really renews the look of used sweaters.

  • The Mr and I hit a thrift after dinner last night and that’s where I found this beauty. A white Dooney and Bourke small bucket satchel. The one reason I know the style name is because it was printed on the sticker inside the pocket. This handbag had never been used!! Super score!! I have thrifted Dooneys before but nothing as nice or as new as this one. My Mr. was even sweet enough to foot the bill. 7.99!
