a good thrifting trip

went on a much needed thrifting trip. i was itching to go this whole week! was happy to score some good items: a cropped polka dot button up, a scalloped cropped tank, a knitted tube top, a (perfect length) maxi skirt, and bass oxfords. i actually got things i wanted : ].

no communication

you have your good and bad thrifting days. had a not so great one at salvation army on friday. (found nothing good, and walked around with a swollen toe! : [) the last friday of every month is 50% off everything. left with two belts for a $1 each. they were needed, but not really, but i'm glad i bought them.
passed by urban outfitters and got this hat for $10. at the salvation army, i thought, "man, i bet i'll find something better at urban outfitters than here"
i didn't give up though, the thrifting trip to goodwill today totally made up for yesterday! got two vintage victoria secret nightgowns (?).
almost ready for florida/the bahamas! hat, maxi, bathing suit, travel bag, storage/luggage check! all i need is film and waterproof cameras. got the blue plaid one on the left for $4.99 each from the urban outfitters website! what a steal. unfortunately, bathing suits from UO don't have padding for the bust, so i bought some from ebay. i hope they turn out ok!
got this harajuku lovers train case and brush roll on a whim because i didn't want to spend $51.52 on this too cute and perfect train case by paul & joe that used to be on the urban outfitters website. got both plus tax and shipping under the price for the paul & joe one! i'm such a cheap-ass -_-
got surprisingly good samples this time. the samples they usually offer are meh. really loving the Too Faced bronzer in Sun Bunny. when i first tried it, it was love! i've used it 3-4 times and there's still product left! can't wait to try the primer!

it was a good day

had a really good thrifting day this past wednesday. got all of this for under $20!
-blazer, two tops, and pants (to be made into high waisted shorts): under $10 (gotta love wednesdays at the salvation army: 50% off clothing and no sales tax!)
-boater hat at savers: $2
-nine west wedges: $7.50 (didn't expect the 50% off shoes at goodwill)

you can eat out cheap and still be full! ate at the cheesecake factory and got this wild mushroon pizzette for a total of $5.41. it is small (like the size of the bread basket), but i got full off of this and eating all the bread : ]
lol look at this couple. they put two tables together. geez talk about personal space.
