How to Thrift Shop

February 11, 2014

People often make sweet comments on clothes I buy for my family. Some of my friends say that I shouldn’t divulge where I picked them up, but I find shopping fun! I love to make it a game, share my finds, and see what combinations my family of girls come...

Gorgeous outfits! I would have never guessed they came from a thrift store. I found an awesome resale boutique where I live and snagged some like new jeans for $5 and like new polos for the hubby for $3 a piece. I felt quite proud of myself to get the clothing we needed and save a lot of $$ at the same time! P.s. I would love to win some pearls!ReplyCancel

I swear, if I ever need a “pick me up” I could look at Halle’s pictures and immediately smile. She is SOOOOOO cute! Great finds, great pics! 🙂 I love thrifting, but I never seem to get as lucky as everyone else out in blogland! 🙂ReplyCancel

I just may have to find a Savers! Those were some great finds;) your little Bug reminds me a little of you;) so cute!
BTW, enjoying this new blog!ReplyCancel

What a fun post, I love thrifting! If pearls wouldn’t be the perfect piece to pair with a thrift store outfit, I don’t know what would!!ReplyCancel
Jamie
Also liked you on facebook!ReplyCancel

I’m thinking a trip to Saver’s for some “real” shopping might just be in my future! I generally just go there when I am needing some “costume” type clothing. lol Thanks for the give away!ReplyCancel
Sherri
Who knew Savers could be so fun! Well done!ReplyCancel
Shannon
Love thrift store shopping!!ReplyCancel
Nicole
Such cute “new” school outfits! And you’re girls are so cute too! I love shopping at the thrift store! Unique items and cheap name brands – I have even found new stuff with the tags still on.ReplyCancel
Camille Walker
Great post! I love the pictures of Halle. She is such a cute HAM! Awesome tips.ReplyCancel

Sometimes when a popular trend is so popular that it is hard to find staple items in my kind of fit, a thrift store is the easiest place to go! Trouser jeans, the right length of blazer, or cardigans!ReplyCancel
Stephanie
I extra like the tip of going with a plan. I usually avoid going because I tend to pick up things that might (but usually don’t) work in the future and then have a house full of junk.ReplyCancel
Janae
Sarah! Great deals, and good luck with the pearls 🙂

Christina, I agree with you about Halle… she makes me laugh daily with her facial expressions!

Trisha 🙂 thanks…she may have a bit of me in her..haha

Jamie, I agree… I wear pearls with my thrift stuff all the time!

Shae, I love that name by the way!! Savers is very fun at Halloween too!!

Sherri, It is so fun! thanks!

Shannon…glad I’m not the only one 🙂

Nicole, I have found brand new stuff too…crazy!

Camille…indeed…

Amy, Isn’t that the truth? It’s like the radio when a new good song comes along, so everyone plays it a million times!

Stephanie, I had to throw that tip in for myself as well 🙂 I get distracted too!ReplyCancel

Awesome ideas…I love the thrift store! Now I have an immense desire to hit up the DI. I always remember finding quality brands thrift shopping in college! It’s great with little kiddos too…great pictures too!ReplyCancel
Stephanie
Hi. I’m Stephanie and I’m a thrift store addict. 🙂

I LOVE the look on peoples’ faces when they compliment me on my outfit and ask me where I got it and I name the local thrift store.

And you’re absolutely right, ALWAYS take a friend.ReplyCancel
Becky Proctor
I need to be more patient with thrift shopping! Thanks for the tips!ReplyCancel
