Thrift Treasures!!!

*PLEASE FEEL FREE TO PLAY MACKLEMORE'S THRIFT SHOP WHEN READING*
As every girl knows fashion is a big part of our daily lives, whether we want it to or not. But not every girl can afford to be up to latest fashion. So what is a girl to do??? Well this is what I do. I thrift shop. Yes THRIFT SHOP! Now I know what your going to say, (With a puzzled look on your face) "Thrift shop?" Yes. Let me tell you that you would be surprised at what you would find at these stores. Today I will show you one of my favorite finds. I might want to add that my heels were more than the whole outfit put together!



So this is my favorite find, a sheer White House Black Market top. In stores this shirt can be at a starting price of $40.00 or more. I found it at the thrift store for only $4.00! It's roomie and very versatile for a day or night look. I wore a Gap outlet white tank under so you could see through but I would normally wear a black tank under. The tank was only $5.00. In my experience the tanks from Gap outlet are just as good as the ones from Gap. The prices are even better! Now to make the look everyday I paired it with skinny jeans from Forever21. Now I normally don't buy jeans from there, but decided to give them a try. I really like them for a couple of reasons: 1.They are higher in the waist. (they tuck your tummy a little bit if you need it) 2.they stretch in the right places.(I'm not a skinny girl so my calves need a little extra room) 3.They don't stretch out too much so you don't keep pulling your jeans at the end of the night. (Been there and hate that). I added a cute grey purse which has no brand and only cost me a $1.00 at the thrift store. It was in such good condition and all it needed was a little wash. You would never be able to tell it was bought at a thrift shop if you saw me walking down the street. Now the heels I bought last year at Payless and cost me $29.99. Yes Payless is getting awesome designers and moving on up from the days when I got my shoes there as a little girl.

So the shoes were $29.99+tax. My whole outfit was drumroll please.....$20.88! +tax Now I don't know about you, but saving $$$ and still getting clothes. Sounds good to me. So give your local thrift shop a try and be amazed by what you find! Til' next time


These were also found at thrift shop which I was so excited about. Even though pink is not my color I could not pass these up. They were too good of a deal at only $2.00!!!! Happy Shopping!
