My thoughts on Thrift Clothes (WIWW)

I could probably wager a bet to myself that I would wear at least one thrifted item each day for a solid year.  Seriously, about 90% of my wardrobe is a find from either Goodwill or Salvation Army.  Some people can't fathom wearing 'used' clothing. What's the difference if my sister passes along clothing she can't wear or doesn't like anymore?  Nadda. Speaking of my sister. You may remember the Liz Claiborne dress she is styling in the below photo.

She wore it to her daughter's High School Graduation last summer.

Do you just have a deep desire to spend more money?  Not me!  It's the thrill of the hunt to find name brands and designer fashions in a thrift store.

LL Bean vest - $2.49  (weekend wear)

Equally as thrilling is mimicking an outfit I see on a fashion blog, in a magazine or pinterest. Here is what I wore to work on Monday -

It was SO cold here in Georgia, I'm also wearing a v-neck black T that you can't see, American Eagle from Goodwill also

Yeah I know iPhone photos aren't the best (I will try to do better next week, but no promises!). And let's get this outta the way up front ladies; I'm NO fashion model.  I know it's a shock.  But it's true.  Just an average country gal that enjoys clothes, but can't afford to spend a gold mint on them.  About two years ago I fell in LOVE with thrifting.  It's my guilty pleasure.

I hope that my guilty please of clothes and thrifting will continue to bring you Goodwill Glamorous Fashions as inspiration how you can also dress for less.

What about you?  Thrifty clothes?  Yes or no
