Do you ever feel the NEED to do something & your brain just won’t stop thinking about it until you do it? Well, that was me yesterday. I was at work, but I was thinking about thrifting all day! I had to go when I got off. I just had to. Its a good thing that I found a thrift store that I absolutely LOVE that stays open until 8pm. I think all of them should! I found a few great pieces. My fav find was a pair of navy blue palazzo pants w/white polka dots. And guess how much they were? Ummm 90 cents!!! You cant beat that! I found about 7 pieces total. My 2nd fav find was a pair of cobalt blue wool tapered trousers for $1.50! SCORE! Now all I need is a good tailor & I’m all set.
This is what I wore to a family gathering on Sunday. You may remember me wearing these shorts last year to a Blogger’s Meetup. I wore them with heels & a black blazer. This time I chose to be a bit more casual, even though I ALMOST put on wedges. The necklace is an H&M clearance find. It was only $5!!

August 25, 2011 at 7:14 pmYou got those adorable shoes at Target! I am insanely jealous, I need them in my closet/life asap! I totally understand the thrifting urge sometimes it helps me clear my head while I’m sorting through rack after rack. It sounds like you got some great finds on this latest thrift trip. Can’t wait to see the polka dot palazzo pants!

August 26, 2011 at 4:03 pmI’m loving that necklace Prissy. The picture of you on the swing makes you look like a kid, but it’s so cute. I love this look and the fact that it’s simple, but still chic.

August 26, 2011 at 4:20 pmSo cute Prissy! I need those shorts (don’t I always lol). I have those shoes, but I’ve only worn them once. They are so fabulous, but I never know what I want to wear them with lol.
I had that same urge (well to shop not thrift) on Wednesday during class, so I paid DSW a visit at like 8:00 pm lol.

September 10, 2011 at 2:25 amOhh ohh ohh PLEASE take me thrifting with you. Funny you mention that you were going to wear wedges. I was thinking how much I like the shoes even though I rarely wear anything flat. The necklace was a nice added touch and a great price.
