Thanks Worthpoint and Salvation army for the resellers workshop and treasure hunt day. It was a wonderful learning experience and a great way to celebrate Earth Day! I don’t normally click on Facebook ads but I was quite curious as a couple of my favorite places were mentioned - Salvation Army and eBay. It was well targeted! I had heard of Worthpoint but had never fully understood the site so was really glad to be properly introduced and educated on its uses. WorthPoint is a database of over 200,000+ makers’ marks, autographs, patterns and symbols (MAPS) to identify items and uncover the ..read more

I can't resist leather bags at the thrift store. Quality leather for $5? Can't beat that with a bat. However, not everything is my style so I have to make some changes. Dyeing leather is a pretty simple DIY fix. Read more here ..read more

This post is sponsored by Cuddl Duds but the content and opinions expressed here are my own. Fall weather finally made it south this week. I am not a chilly weather fan but life goes on. It is an opportunity to break out the warm layers including my favorite fall clothing item -- a black turtleneck. Read more here ..read more

I don't blog often but when I do, you can bet it's to show off a fabulous thrift store jumpsuit. I only wore this yummy animal print once before it was quickly snatched up out of one of my online closets.  Read more here ..read more

I thought I was done with overalls after the black ASOS pair but these Liberty ones spoke to my vintage denim loving heart. I don't feel like I'm heading to Gymboree in this one. They have a close fit but it's not too tight. It shows off curves but in a casual and relaxed way. Read more here ..read more

You definitely should not make a habit of buying thrift store clothes that don't fit properly. Since I sell a lot of what I find, I don't try things on in the store anymore. I picked up a vintage muumuu dress in Palm Springs not knowing if it fit or not because it's fish fabric. You can't so no to a fish dress. I ended up having to downsize and refashion into a simple maxi dress. Read more here ..read more

I am so in love with one of my latest thrift finds. I found a vintage floral duster while I was in Palm Springs. It's bright and colorful. Long and cozy. It's light enough for summer wear and keeps the air conditioner chill away. I wore it to brunch and felt like one of the Golden Girls in my pastel colored ensemble. Besides the long length on the coat, I love the huge pockets that can hold all weekend essentials -- sunglasses and keys. Read more here ..read more

There are some thrift store pieces that really capture my heart. Either I wanted them for myself and it wasn't a good fit for me or my lifestyle or I knew that someone else would love it and I must get it in that persons hands. The past month has been fruitful with fun little gems that also turned a decent profit on eBay, Poshmark, or Etsy. These are my recent favorites that found new homes. 1. The denim jumpsuit I thrifted in Florida. I wore it once and then it sold. Read more here ..read more

I've found that my clothes sell faster online when I wear them versus when I put them on the mannequin or laying flat. That's what inspired today's thrifted outfit. I usually wear the clothes that fit and and look good on me. I also treat it as a chance to play dress up in outfits that don't have a place in my lifestyle. Today's dress up is a vintage jean skirt. Love the style but it's a bit too small. I've had it in my Poshmark closet for a year. I originally had it posted with a collage of button front denim skirt outfits found on Pinterest. I wanted to show how awesome and on trend this ..read more
