Trip Thrifting

I’m hopping on a plane and taking a little trip in a couple of days, so of course this calls for new clothes right? In true frugal fashion I headed to the thrift shop. First, bringing some unwanted things to donate.   I found some awesome things, but only went home with a couple of them.

  

I didn’t get a good photo of this black Kenneth  Cole leather jacket, it wasn’t exactly what I was looking for, so I left it. It quickly found its way into someone else’s basket.  This scarf was a little too small for my wall tapestry idea, but it was so pretty. Sadly, another leave behind.

What I did end up taking home was this Zara Woman dress, it was $6.99 and from Zara’s Spring collection a couple years ago. I’m crazy about it. I mean, check out that lace detail. 

I picked up this Mexican blanket because it was only $3. I couldn’t leave it behind. I hope this isn’t the start of a blanket collection. If that can be a thing.

I was actually searching for a picture frame, so next stop, Value Village! You know what? I didn’t find one, but I found a couple other things.

A wall tapestry! Hurray! Okay, more like a big scarf, but who cares. I wanted a solid, vibrant scarf, couldn’t find one large enough so I settled on this for $2.99. It’s draped over a canvas, but I’m planning on putting it up full length.

I was hunting for a bucket bag, but I couldn’t pass up this Phillip Lim for Target brief case style purse ($7.99). The clasp was a little loose, nothing a little super glue couldn’t fix. Shout out to super glue!

I didn’t find everything I was looking for but left with some unexpected gems. All in all, a successful weekend thrift haul!
