![]() ![]() That wrapped up our Monday adventures, and Tuesday we decided to hit the thrift stores in Sugar Land since I hadn’t ventured there yet! Oh am I glad we did! Yes, I am 15 years old and wore my new top the next day. I might just have a cobalt pair of shorts waiting to go out with this top! This top brings out my MMS (Matchy Matchy Syndrome). ![]() Okay LulaRoe, these leggings are NOT “one size.” I did find this Val Stevens top for $6 that I adore! I love red and blue together. Loooooovvved this “Amass” coat but again don’t need to introduce more competition for my current coats! But I love you. Loved this “Suno” coat but just couldn’t justify it. It’s a thrifting rule (which my husband routinely breaks much to my chagrin). So the boot reveal was a bit anti-climactic but all was eventually redeemed, you’ll see.īack to Monday, on our way home from Texas Thrift, we stopped at the nearby Goodwill because you don’t just drive by them. Dang if kids don’t remember what you say sometimes. She was so disappointed but I told her I would keep my eye out for a doll house and one day we would *be surprised* by finding one at the thrift store. Huh? Turns out she was thinking of a past thrift trip where we found a doll house with a bunch of pieces and were ready to buy it when we learned someone had already snagged it. Shannon and I picked her up from the bus and said we had a great surprise that we thrifted for her!!!!!! She was excited, we were excited!!! Then when she saw the red sparkly boots, she burst into tears. Shannon scored some kimonos and tops, but *the* find of the trip was something for my daughter… All the heart eyes for these! I did find a few great pieces! Faith and Joy brand top for $1! Nice colours, long enough, not maternity!! Here it is in action! Another sleeveless top for $2.50! Anthro brand Maeve skirt for $1! There were more no’s but some are not fit for public consumption or my self-esteem. This one was long enough, not maternity but I didn’t love the floral pattern. I was looking for longer tops but it proved challenging to find ones that were long enough but not maternity looking. ![]() Anthro brand top that was bursting at the buttons. Boho-ish top with nice colours… and a maternity waist line. I found no shortage of sale pieces that fateful Monday morning! There were plenty of no’s but it was fun to file through them… Too small Cartonnier jacket The technical term for this style is “boob sack dress”. I scan for labels and items off my thrift hunting list but I focus on the sale tags. ![]() Texas Thrift is HUGE! In large stores with so much selection, my strategy shifts a bit. Texas Thrift is a bit of a drive for me but well worth it! Each Monday, there is a 99 cent colour tag sale as well as 50% off another colour tag! I had never been before so I could be mistaken but I think there was also a third 10% off colour tag! We started a new week of thrifting on Monday by visiting Texas Thrift! Remember back in Thriftapalooza Part 1 I warned you that the third and final part of my epic thrift trilogy would be the best?! This is your cue to go get a cup of coffee/wine depending on the time of day and settle in because Shannon and I found the bargains, the house, the 8 foot tree and more!! ![]()
