Hey Heyyy!

When I look at my closet I definitely notice two things...one...I probably have too much....two...I probably have too much vintage. Then I shake that off and remember there is no such thing as too much vintage. When asked what my fave place is to shop my response is often "the thrift store". I love the idea of finding something that is unique and often times high end items I wouldn't be able to purchase unless I found it at the these types of stores. Thrifting is one of those things that you either get or you don't, not good or bad, just some people don't understand that you have to spend time and you have to expect NOTHING....Some of my absolute favorite items in my closet have been purchased for less then five dollars.

I came home to do a blog post the other day and reached for this vintage sweater and my weekly worn shorts that have started to fray in the oddest places. Still love them. Also I def dig the front of this sweater...but I liked the back better so I turned it around and wore it that way instead.

What is your take on thrifting? Yay or Nay?

Love the top (colour/knit/shape) and I adore that lipstick colour: so Autumn 12.
Thrift-shopping: yes, but I'm a picky one...I have to really like the item before I splurge

You can never have too much vintage! Thrift shopping is just too much fun... and the item will just be so much more unique.
