Well consignment kitties, it's been quite a while since I've made it back to the blog and it feels long overdue. So with that being said, we're back in black (and other colors)!
Today's theme is snow day and features pictures that I've taken over the past two weeks. Hopefully all of you are getting back into the grind of spring semester somewhat comfortably--I know I'm making it there ever so slowly. Anyways, let it known forever and always that thrifting gives you plenty of opportunities to:
1) Save money
2) Recycle clothing
3) Re-purpose clothing
4) Find unique piece
5) Save more money
There's never a bad time to thrift, but definitely more advantageous times (dollar days, my friends). Today, my best friend Tarah and I adventured out in the snowy weather to study at one of our favorite coffee shops, MoJava. Wesleyan graciously gave a snow day and it was definitely one of the most relaxing and fun-filled days I've had in a while. After studying we went to the Salvation Army and Goodwill on the hunt for formal dresses and ended up finding lots of other great pieces. Below are pictures of some of them, as well as older photos I've taken.
Remember, thrifted is good for your wallet and wardrobe. Also, continue to be yourself with style, even if the awkward Goodwill clerk tries to get you down about your style purchases. Who wants to dress like everyone else anyways?
