A Tricky Little Surprise


The fun things about today's outfit:
1. Scarf - As you can see this is actually a t-shirt! That's right! 
A purchased-from-Costco t-shirt.
2. Shoes - Thrifted
3. Sweater - Gifted
5. Earrings - Yard Sale for $0.55
6. Ring - Sentimentally Uber Important... Maybe that story another day.

My local Salvation Army thrift store does 50% store wide on Wednesdays. You don't need to wonder if I'm a regular...Just assume that I am there at least every other week. I came very close to purchasing a leather jacket today, but it wasn't quite what I wanted and even though it's thrift shopping, I don't like to buy something I don't love (or something I can't imaging loving after I refashion it).

Needless to say I walked away with a few great finds.
Nothing over $7 but most things under $4!!!

Good thing I went a little casual today so I could easily try a couple things on. 

Any good thrift finds lately???


Jeremiah 17:7-8
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
And whose hope is the Lord. 
For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters,
Which spreads out its roots by the river,
And will not fear when heat comes;
But its leaf will be green, 
And will not be anxious in the year of drought, 
Nor will cease from yielding fruit.

  1. A t-shirt as a scarf - what a cool idea! I'll have to try that sometime.
