Thrifty Outfit Post

If you read this blog, you know I’m not so great at the outfit posts. In fact, I’ve never done one before. But I do love to thrift and most of my clothes are secondhand. I don’t think feeling pretty in your clothes needs to cost much. So I thought I might share a recent find (my Easter dress!) with you…I hope it inspires you to find the cheap-o fashionista inside of you!

I’m super drawn to bright colors and contrasting textures. I have been eyeing this belt for awhile now and miraculously, no one had purchased it yet. Usually when I fail to snag something I love right away, it’s gone when I get back.

Dress: Pink Rose, Volunteers of America Thrift, $4.99

Belt: Volunteers of America Thrift, $4.99

Necklace: SONOMA life + style (available at Kohl’s), gift from my mother. I couldn’t find the exact necklace but there’s something similar available here.

That brings this outfit’s total cost to a whopping $9.98 plus tax.

What do you think? Any thrifting tips for clothes shopping? What are your tricks for scoring a bargain?

love, elizabeth
