Thrifty Thursday

Hello All!

It's Thursdaaaay!! I would like to welcome you to the first Thrifty Thursday post! Allow me to showcase a few treasures I came across on a very recent thrift run. Most items in the store were 50% off. Everything else? DIRT CHEAP!

The leather vest has a tag price of $5.95 but was 50% off... I purchased it for under $3!

The Cosby sweater caught my eye with the beautiful blend of neutral colors and splash of green. It's a men's sweater yet fits my body perfectly. It's tag price was $4.95; it was the most expensive piece I purchased on this day =)

Lastly, the Gucci long sleeve. It is a beautiful shade of burgundy with monogram web design. It is in pristine condition and was only $1.95. There are no words... check out the pictures!

Until next time <3

Azul

I'm happy! This blazer brings a whole new meaning of "I've got the blues"... I am in LOVE with the color and fabric of this piece. It looks like tweed but gives a lighter wear. It has thin shoulder pads (non-removable) which gives more shape to the look.

Here, I paired it with black jean shorts (I made!), floral print tights (Betsey Johnson) and my all time fave black,open-toe platform heels (Jessica Simpson).

This AMAZING necklace was a Christmas gift (thanks Mom) ordered from Karmaloop.com. It's coral color was a great contrast to the cobalt blazer. It features various brass tone charms and I LOVE IT!

Enjoy!

XOXO

I'm Blazin'!

I'm baaaaaaaaaaack!

It's been so long since I've posted... Won't happen again...PROMISE!

Anywhooo, I had an A-MAZNG thrift run today! I visited a shop tucked secretly between a few tall buildings, and BOY did I strike gold! I had to show you all a few gems I scored today. I picked up these two blazers, tried them on and DIED. The red is a light cranberry color (doesn't appear so in pictures). It was a whopping $2.95. Did I mention it's from Nordstrom?...Yeah... I know!!! The cobalt blue blazer is made of tweed-ish material; it has the look without the rough feel. Total must have at $1.95. Check them out!

Styling of the two coming soon :-)
