I ...I shop thrift because i love shopping too much. I budget myself $20 at a time. That would buy me one item at the mall, if that. However, recently thrift stores have been getting so much attention that pickings are slim. There's also a lot of buyouts from like, Target lately. Dresses and shoes, etc end up being $15+ at the thrift store??? Just because it's Merona and nwt? I've found J.Crew Cashmere sweaters for $3.00 but you want me to pay $15.00 for a merona dress?<br />In the end, if I like it I will buy it, but I wish I lived in a bigger metro area so that there would be more to choose from.<br /><br />I love your skirt and top! It's classic and still trendy with the crop top and midi length skirt.<br /><br />-Ash<br />www.thestylizedwannabe.comAshleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17483066188052542885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2020523209903869002.post-54196178401873796832013-08-10T18:59:29.817-04:002013-08-10T18:59:29.817-04:00I really enjoyed reading your blog.
