Thriftanista Social Club: Mini Haul

I scheduled a Thriftanista meetup on Monday to hit up the 50% off sale at Unique and the 44% off sale at Salvation Army. I saw so many great items and still kept to my budget and only spent $20 for the night.

I found two beaded tops at good price. I have been looking for ages. 
Thinking about selling one. Which one to keep? Hmm.
Thriftanista N found the lovely purple tribal print skirt for me. I think it was from Free People. I left it behind on accident. I didn't realize I had left without it until I got home. That stings. If you spot it, can you grab it for me?

Purple sweater with slightly puffy sleeves and sparkly threads. It looks great on.

My favorite finds of the night 
Vibrant red
Yellow Orange? Another great color.
It doesn't fit me but I bought it anyway.
I don't own any lace and I thought this would make a good experiment piece. It's new with tags. I changed my mind at checkout though. I saw issues with trying to get my hair through the tiny neckline.

Banana Republic pants circa 2003. Also left by accident. Le Sigh. BR pants fit me really well and since these are "old", I knew the rise was going to be high enough for me.

If you're in the area, join us for the Thrifter's Challenge. The thriftiest Thriftanista wins a $25 gift card and participants receive a $5 gift card.

What have you thrifted recently?

I'm on the hunt for a good thrift shopping group in my area. I had joined one from Meetup but they never could get it together.

It's hard finding good meetups that's why I joined so many and created my own.

Mama Violet said...

Thanks you! I like the black/white one better than the other one too.

It's going to be fun. I won't be able to shop though since I'll be running around trying to get pictures and videos. Boo.

Girl, I was running my mouth talking to another Thriftanista and left half the haul.
