Thrift Store Find

I've never been big on thrift stores before, but after reading some blogs on great finds, I decided to give it a try. Yesterday my fiance and I went to a Goodwill, but I didn't have much luck. I ended up with one cardigan. Today I decided to try a thrift shop in a different town - and found some amazing deals. I ended up buying 5 pieces, for just $8.20 - amazing. My best find of the day was this Oscar de la Renta jacket for 95 cents. Maybe it's not real?

Unfortunately, my camera is kind of old and I have no timer setting - so I tried both in front of the mirror and taking it myself, neither came out great. Ignore what I'm wearing underneath, I just threw it on over the sweater I wore out today. I also took a close up of the pattern (and yes, the label too...). I also purchased a navy Petite Sophisticate jacket w/ a belted waist, a Merona grey long-sleeve t-shirt, a navy blue skirt w/ white polka dots and a light blue NY & Co. button down shirt. I'm feeling happy after a successful day!

My Closet: Grey Pumps

Okay, so I'm really slacking... I still haven't taken pictures of my new purchases. But I did find a picture online of another pair of shoes I bought! These are Isaac Mizrahi for Target Angel Pumps. Originally $32.99, I found them on sale for $16.48.

My Closet: A Few New Purchases

I did a ton of shopping this past weekend... at least compared to what I have done over the past several months. I've been too lazy to get up pictures of everything, but I wanted to post a few things I'm excited about!

I've been wanting tall black boots for awhile now. I got a pair from Old Navy a few years ago that work, but they have two buckles on the side and are more "cute to play in the snow" than "sexy/professional". The Old Navy ones are also flat, and I wanted heel. I found these boots at Target. They are Merona Kaylie Tall Boots, for $32.99. I could wear these over or under jeans, with leggings, and with a new skirt I got from a second hand store for work. I see myself getting a lot of use out of these!

I also got this Merona Scoop Neck Pleat Dress at Target. It was $24.99 in the store, $19.99 online. I got dark grey tights and light grey pumps to go with it. I can't wait for a chance to wear it out! Maybe to the holiday party for school.

I got this Merona Cardigan for $10 at Target, only mine is a red-burgundy color with grey lining.

Pictures of the rest of my purchases coming soon!
