Thrift Store Finds

Time to show you what I got at the thrift store this week!

For the kids:

The girls school uniform requires them to wavy navy cardigans so these are always a big find!

A few nice T’s.

A nice summer dress and a forever 21 skirt that I added an elastic waistband to and made into a kids skirt. I can’t believe an adult would actually fit into that!

For me:

I’m not normally drawn to floral prints but for some reason I really liked this dress. It was too short so I added that orange trim pieces on the bottom.

For my major find! Trina Turk shorts in my size! These were in brand new condition and I looked them up and they go for about $175!!

Finally, this vintage TV tray. So cheery!

Total for all these items- $16!

Have a great weekend!

I hadn’t been thrifting since we’ve moved and I was dying to go back. I finally went on my Wednesday 50% off day and got some great sutff!

Two swim cover ups and a little cotton skirt.

Total- $3.

Two pairs of girls pants, a little girls Gap peplum coat, and my fave- a CrewCuts cardigan.

Total-$7.

For me, an olive colored sun dress, a peasant blouse and a pair of Banana Republic shorts. These were actually bermuda shorts but I shortened them to my desired length. Perfect!

Total- $8

Gotta love the thrift store!

Here’s a few recent thrift store finds.

 

I fell in love with this vintage dress for $3.25. It looked so Anthropologie/Tucker to me.

 

I think to update it I’ll take up the sleeves (maybe take down the neckline) and wear it with a great leather belt and leather boots.

I got this poofy tutu skirt for my daughter new with tags for $1.20.

Who can resist all these girls layers?

This vintage Anne Klein gold shell was $1.50.I can wear this so many different ways. This cream skirt was $2.00 and fit in great with this season’s skirt trends.

I love the detail and the pockets at the waist. It’s a very slimming skirt.

Finally, I found this dark eggplant leather skirt that I’m gong to tear apart to use to make a cool belt.  Because who can buy leather for $2.2o?

I love my thrift store finds!

Thrift Store Finds

I try to go to Salvation Army every Wednesday on 50% off day. I have found some of the best things! I’ve been looking for skirts that fit Spring’s  skirt trends. Here’s today’s find. I don’t normally find an entire ensemble so I was pretty excited.

I love the print on this skirt. It reminds me slightly of the ikat prints that I love so much.  And it’s comfortable and fits me really well!

Have a great Wednesday!
