I recently took inventory of what I have thrifted this year and in that recount it occurred to me that I've only shared a fraction of these pieces in my outfit posts here. So, to be honest with myself, and my "need" to thrift I am not going to purchase anything more until I have showcased what I have here on this blog. I originally thought that I would just set out to do this and you would be none the wiser if I thrifted a bit here and there and then I realized I wanted to keep myself accountable and in doing so I am sharing this with you.
So today is a blue moon, the second full moon of a month, and this is my once in a blue moon post where I am actually focusing myself and looking critically at my fashion and my style habits. I will probably come back to this over the course of this journey and hopefully I will come out of this with a more keen thrifting eye, a better sense of my style and a relevant, organized closet!
So, along the way you may see these Earnest Sewn jeans,
This amazing vintage, printed pencil skirt,
This vintage maxi skirt and blouse ensemble
and this vintage, black leather jacket.
And about 25 more pieces, stay tuned!
Cute finds! Can't wait to see the outfits.
ReplyDeleteWhat great finds! LOVE the printed vintage pencil skirt and the black leather jacket! Maybe wear them together? What FAB pieces!

I know that is probably my favorite piece...just waiting for the right opportunity! Stay tuned you'll definitely see it soon.
DeleteI totally get that. You gotta take stock. I just scolded myself for going thrift store shopping even though I haven't worn everything I got the last time I went yet!
ReplyDeleteKeep me honest, no thrifting until I've worn it all!
ReplyDeleteI so love your skirt! what you have in mind is what I have in my mind too. Yesterday, I told myself not to shopped anymore (even if it is thrifted) because I found out I still have some cloths that I have not wear and never been into the limelight yet ^_^ What I also show in my blog I wore it not just to showcase a dress style. I can go with the trend but with a certain twist ^_^ For now I am set not to shop for a month! Crossing my fingers on that and good luck to you too. A new follower here...happy weekend!

Thanks for your support!
DeleteI love these finds, my fav is the vintage maxi skirt and shirt. I love thrifting because it is like a treasure hunt and when you find something cool it is such a great feeling. This is a great idea to showcase your stuff.

I know wasn't that an awesome find!
DeleteRight after I read this post, I read the post by My Edit about being a "shopaholic" (I noticed you read it too, lol, I saw your comment) and I was really inspired by you two! I'm going to join you on your goal to hold off from thrifting until you share what you've already bought. I have that same "need" to thrift, and it's time that I dealt with it! Great post :)
ReplyDeleteI'm digging that black leather jacket. Really want to see how you style it!
ReplyDeleteI'm seriously trying to edit my clothes, but as soon as I do, I replace them! uugghrrr!
