THRIFTED THURSDAY

Hi Dolls and Dudes,

Welcome to this segment of "Thrifted Thursday"

So recently I have been in love with thrifting. Here in Atlanta there are literally thousands of thrift shop and all of them are not good. However my mom, sister and I have found a really good one. The new stuff comes in on Thursdays and nothing is over $1.75. How you love that? They also have $0.25 days but nothing good is left by quarter day. I recently been watching tons of DIY clothing cutting videos and just been feeling really artistic and want to experiment with cutting and dying and bedazzling clothes so I figured let me find really good thrifted clothes to practice on, that way if I make a mistake it will be no big deal. Plus I love the thrill of finding hidden treasures.






I found some really good items and spent less than $5.00. I can not wait to show you some of the things I have done to the clothes and how I paired my thrifted clothing with clothes I already owned.



Do you go thrifting? Do You enjoy it? What is the best thrifted item you ever purchased?

  4. That's awesome! You got some great finds. Unfortunately in L.A. even the thrift stores are up on their fashion game. So they will have designers marked up! Take advantage of where you are, you can find some great high quality pieces I'm sure. I love finding good stuff. Can't wait to see your outfits.
