i had a very successful thrifting mission today. i’ve been looking at too much wardrobe remix and so i got The Urge. once i get The Urge, i can’t deny it. outta my way…
so, i found these wicked strappy braided leather peeptoe sandals for $3 at Value Village. unfortunately when i got home and tried them on again, i started to think they looked a tad frumpy…

is it just me? well anyway, 4 snips later i’m wearing my favorite new $3 sandals. here’s a before and after:

yay me!
a few more things i bought today:

oversized damask print tank (this is long and will look sweet w/ my new brown belt): $3
black mini jumper (originally from le chateau): $5
red & white shell necklace: 99 cents (man, do you remember the good ol’ days when everything at the thrift store was less than a dollar?)
mutilated black strappy sandals: $3
i also got two dresses (one is this wicked navy and white striped chiffon pleated number with eagles on it EAGLES! which i’ll need to size down a few sizes before i show it to you- believe me, it’ll blow your mind), a gorgeous pair of pointy leather cut-out oxfords, 2 pairs of earrings, a yellow bangle, some navy cords, a cropped vest, an adorable Zara top with puff sleeves and another tank and spent less than $50. and i didn’t even have time to make it to the bags and belts section!
stoked.






WOOT! Wingy! Most excellent haul, Amber! I LOVE the thrifts!
Ooh, very nice finds! It always feels so great to run away with such great deals.
I see what you’ve done there, that’s very clever.
You really spiffed up those shoes; losing that extra strap makes the world of difference!
I agree. Those are the cutest $3 shoes I’ve seen. I need to go visit my local thrift store soon!
bravo! what great finds. I have to admit to being absolutely rubbish at “great thrift store” finds.
