I’m on this kick of sharing photos/outfits I’ve worn. Not in a fashion blogger type of way, but just in a “these are my clothes, I feel cute and the world should see” kind of way. haha.
Since droppping some MAJOR poundage, my wardrobe is constantly changing & growing. It’s weird and kind of irritating if I’m being honest with you guys. It’s just a lot of work to revamp a wardrboe on a SUPER tight budget, but when you HAVE to because NONE of your clothes fit… well, thrift stores to the rescue! haha.
No, but seriously… I’ve always been a thrifter. Call me “frugal” or “cheap” but in reality, I just can’t see spending full price on something that I can pick up for a small percentage of full price from a thrift store. The other day I came across a pair of sweatpants from Abercrombie & Fitch with NEW STORE TAGS still on em. I paid $6.99 for them. Scooped them up SO fast though.
Now that doesn’t mean that I never buy new – I totally do. BUT when it’s time for a new winter wardrobe for everyone, (because kids grow sooooooo fast) we head to a thrift store. We grab a few tops/bottoms for each of us. WIN all around. The other day we spent $108 on a new winter coat for Owen & myself. A hoodie, pants, a shirt for Fin. Pants, a shir for Owen. A sweater, shirt, pants for Maddie. 3 pairs of pants for me. 1 pair for David and some shirts for us. We had like 20 items ….. $108. <– that’s why I thrift shop. My 3 pants would’ve costed me $100+ had I bought them new.
See my jeans & ear warmer below? Totally snagged those up brand new from a new boutique. <-- not sponsored in any way. I just REALLY love my jeans & ear warmer & the prices were great.
So, out of all of the above – which pieces are your favorites? Which would you wear?
Are you a thrifter too? Tell me the coolest thing you’ve ever thrifted!
