Thrifty.

I've never been much of a thrifter, but I've always admired the art.

Well, I'm beginning to learn. And I'm beginning to love it.

My teachers? Lauren & Abbi.

Lauren taught me about the importance of finding the right pattern.


While Abbi taught me about finding the right size.


Lauren showed me how you can find an outfit for any occasion.


And Abbi demonstrated how while a piece may not appeal to you at first glance...

Photobucket
...it may be just the ticket!

So with my new found thrifting skills, I thrifted the following pieces:


{90s skirt.}


{Shorts.}


{Cocktail ring.}

What do you think? Have I learned how to thrift?

*I wish my thrifting lessons with these lovely ladies had been at the same time...because hanging out with them both together would be epic. Sadly, they were a year apart. Someday we (yes, you're included) should all have a big party and thrift!

The student has become the master! I want to be part of this thrifting party. All my "thrifting" has been done online, and technically doesn't count as thrifting.

You are a fast learner. I love that ring!

I absolutely love that first outfit with the skirt - you teamed it perfectly with that top and pearls! Really pretty :)
