Birthday Thrifting Spree!

Aug 22, 2013 11:54

Hello! I'm new to this community and thought I might share my recent finds. I turned 23 on the 18th. After receiving various birthday cards with money in it, I had over $100, so I decided I was long overdue for a thrifting spree.

How many size sections are you checking out? I ask because, after losing some weight, I found I actually fit into four different sizes (4x-1x) depending on the style, cut, and how big I want the item to be. If I had stayed in my 2-3x comfort zones I doubt I'd have scored nearly as much as I did. So maybe start checking out 1-2 sizes above and below what you're used to? Either way. thank you and good luck!

I do usually check a size up, but haven't checked a range of sizes. Thanks for the tip!

Aww, thanks! I really wanted to get some good autumn/winter wear since it gets so cold and rainy where I live. And I'm actually counting down the days until it starts raining so I can sport my new comfy boots which are seriously the comfiest and warmest boots I have ever owned. They actually had the exact same pair in brown also, but I felt the black suited me more. Though maybe for such a low price, I should've grabbed them just in case...

Fantastic finds! I love all the grey sweaters, so cozy. Seriously my favorite color. The antique kimono jacket is the coolest thing! Clearly you two were meant for each other. ;)

Aww thanks! And there are actually more around here. I've been meaning to try salvation army, but the place has pretty bad reviews on yelp so I've been dragging my feet.
