Precaution: this post serves as an internet hug and may be a little sappy. It’s funny how life works. The other day I was standing in line at Starbucks and caught myself staring at the girl in front of me. Not to be awkward, but I couldn’t take my eyes of her! Haha! I LOVED her style but stood there thinking, “She’s so cool; there is no way I could pull that look off.” Her look was based off an oversized denim jumper. I wanted to be that cool.

This post is to help you know what to thrift next time you’re at Goodwill! The most important piece of the entire look is obviously the sweater.

Sparkle. A piece of advice I was given last week sparked a new outlook on life. A lady from my hometown complimented me on the outfit I was wearing at the time. Of course I was dressed head-to-toe in thrifty finds. After I gave my spiel of why I shop at Goodwill, she looked me straight in the eyes and said, “Never let anyone dull your sparkle.” Those six words have lingered in the back of mind. Friday, I attended Customer Appreciation Day at the Ring Road store in Elizabethto

#ThriftyThursday: $250. My preppy ensemble would retail for nearly that surprising cost. Lucky for me – my window-shopping inspiration was satisfied with thrifty Goodwill finds. This soft look is composed of: a Gap dress a New Look cardigan a pair of Talbots sandals a two-strand pink necklace I struggle wearing any straight-cut dress, but when I found this Gap gem, I decided alterations were worth my time.
