The Most Awesome Finds Are Thrifted Finds

I'm always TEN times more excited about an outfit if it is thrifted. In fact, I have a hard time not telling people that it is thrifted. There is just something awesome about finding a totally new-to-you outfit that you love that costs less than five bucks! Many people hate thrifting because you have to search through racks and racks of clothes only to find one thing that you think will maybe look good, only to find that it isn't your size. I can see how that would be annoying. But I love the search. I love it. There are some days that I get dressed and realize that everything from my earrings to my shoes are thrifted! So after talking to my sister I decided to start a blog (separate from my family blog [you're welcome, Brett]) where I can share my fun finds and you can do the same! Just FYI- I'm not a model (shocker!), nor do I think that I am. So these pictures are mosty just goofy. Look at the cute dress, not my awkward pose, crazy face, crooked legs, etc. :)

When I first saw this dress in the Thrift Store I thought maybe that purple was too much. But I couldn't get over how much I loved the cut of the top with the high neck and the short sleeves. I fell in love with the gold buttons.

Pretty sure the neighbors were wondering WHAT in the world we were doing.

I found this belt at a completely different thrift store on a completely different day. When I got home I realized it would be perfect with this dress. I love the velvet and gold on this belt.

(Check out the belt loop hanging out. Whoops! Too bad I went to church like this. Oh well.)

My earrings are also thrifted. And I like 'em!

And incase you're wondering, because I'm sure all of you care soooo much (ha)... I curled my hair using THIS technique. It is awesome and SO easy.

I think it would be awesome if you guest-posted on my blog! Let me know if you want to!
