Thrifty Dress Score!

Let me preface this by saying, I don't consider my blog a fashion blog, and I am not a model, so please excuse my funny faces and poses :) 

I just wanted to share these dresses that I found in a thrift store yesterday. I bought 3 dresses for $12! I only have two pictured though. 



This dress is covered in tiny blue and red flowers. It was a prefect fit for me!




Lia wanted to join in on the fun :)


I'm not sure about this one yet. It's actually a jumper suit, so I'm going to have to cut and re-sew it to make it an actual dress. 


The lace bolero I'm wearing was what I wore in my wedding 2 years ago. I picked out the lace and a friend of mine made it.

Boots- thrifted
White sweater- Kohls

Shopping in thrift stores can be time consuming because you may have to go through a lot of clothes before finding something you like. But walking out of the store with something at an awesome price, makes it all worth it!

Do you go thrifting? What's the best thing you have ever found?

Have a great weekend! And happy 4th of July!

  9. Cute! I like them both! good finds.

    Yes I go thrifting. In fact I went on Sunday. I think the best thing I found was my long jean skirt. They aren't really in style anymore, but I had wanted one and this one is perfect!
