I'm at Talize this morning and it's really nice because at this point I can
get here without using Google Maps. This time I have a bunch of stuff to donate
Oh my god!
So I just got home. And these are the things that I got.
Yeah, that's called the smell of thrifting. First thing that I
got was this piece of art print. It's just a print and I'm going to DIY it.
You'll see what I'm gonna do with that. I'm gonna do something really cool with it.
Then the next thing that I got was linen but not actually
real linen blazer. It's hard to thrift blazers. In terms of the style from just
a decade ago, like shoulders are always really big lapels are really fat the
buttons are really old. I like that it is a long blazer so I can kind of wear it like
a spring jacket. It's pretty modern. I just have to take out the shoulder pads.
I actually don't have any more blazers in my closet. I picked up a lot of
pair of jeans. These ones are actually from Zara. I'm going to be doing a DIY
embellished jeans. Pair of jeans here, another pair of jeans here, so it's going
to be a pretty major DIY. It's hard. I don't know how people did it in
the 2000s, well I mean I went through the 2000s too but like low-rise is so not
comfortable and most of the stuff in thrift stores nowadays is low-rise. It's
also very hard to find fit flare jeans now. You can maybe find wide leg jeans
here and there, but to find jeans that are tapered down the leg and then flared
out at the hem actually nearly impossible. So I'm really glad that I got
these, plus the wash wash is very important. A lot of
things are really bright yellow stitches and like really blue blue jeans. I
also picked up a maxi denim skirt and also again, to find a pair of jeans or
anything denim that doesn't have weird butt pocket designs and doesn't have any
weird like wrinkle pressed wash that they already imprinted into the denim is
really essential. So I think I'm gonna DIY something with this as well. Then I
got this wool red skirt. Just a red miniskirt. Fits really nicely. Oooh guess
what, it's vintage. 92% wool vintage skirt. I've scored a lot
of true vintage pieces this time. This one was eight bucks. And then another
skirt that fit really nicely. I don't know what I'm gonna wear it with, is a
khaki skirt. And it's high-waisted, also true vintage.
Beautifully made has a lining. The skirt this is virgin wool I believe? Yeah.
Really good quality. My family friend actually dropped off a couple of her old
skirts for me and they're plaid skirts and the quality of this is
amazing. It's like heavy-duty wool, beautiful pleating.
I got it in this plaid too. These ones just barely fit me.
So the back to school thrift video that I did with Naomi, I had this t-shirt on and
I'm really sad that I didn't buy it. I kind of have been looking for it ever
since. Lo and behold, guess what I found. This t-shirt.
I don't even know if it was at this location. And I found this t-shirt.
I'm going to make a DIY with these two t-shirts. To me these two
t-shirts is like the essence of America: Hooters and giant trucks and flames.
So a huge haul for today. I'm so excited to rock these in the spring
and get to DIYing for all of these things. I'm on a huge DIY kick again. Very
excited about this thrift haul to start my spring wardrobe.
