February: Savers Thrift-Shop Haul

3/5/2017

0 Comments

 
There is nothing that I love more than thrift shopping. Almost all of my clothes are from thrift shops, consignment shops, vintage stores, or hand-me-downs.

I love thrifting.  The thrill of the deals. The excitement of searching and finding unique articles of clothing. When I discover a unique find, I feel like an archaeologist who just found bones from creatures from long ago. Plus, THE DEALS. Enough said. 

I'm constantly asked, "Samantha, where did you get that ____" or  something like "That dress was only $10? How and where?". 

Look no further, those questions will be answered! This is the start to many hauls, bargain shopping, and unboxing blog posts.

Annie, Are You Okay?

Scarlet Nite
Top and bottoms set
Size 11/12

$5.99 

Feelin' like I'm draped in gold, this two piece look had to come home with me. There are shoulder pads in the coat, slits at the foot of the pants, and an obvious old school feel. I also love the cut in the back of the top. It's exceptionally comfortable and flowy and screams bold. Now to find an excuse to wear this!

Rainbows and Pots of Gold

Steven by Steve Madden
$8.99

I'm not sure if I love these because they're borderline ugly or if I love these because they're borderline iconic. These Steve Madden kicks are woven beautifully. I love the colors and these shoes could fit endless outfits. But, the sole of the shoe is nearly orthopedic. I'm not sure if these are Grandma shoes or sophisticated fashionista footwear. No matter the case, these are irresistible! 

My Second Faux Fur Find

Monterey Fashions
​Made in the USA Coat
$17.99

When I was younger, I used to admire Cruella Deville and Fran from The Nanny. Both wore these excessive fur coats that stated, "I'm here, listen up, and I'm a queen". More recently, I've wondered why I never bought a fur coat prior. Not only do I own my fabulous white fur coat (previous Savers find), I own my new dark brown/black fur coat. This coat I debuted at the Sunday show of Fashion Week RI (click here )

Mystery Purse

Green purse
No information 

$5.99

This strange purse has limited information. The following inscription is inside the bag;

​"choose life choose positivity choose the golden rule choose  to be at peace with yourself choose salvation scegliete di fare una differenza choose to make a difference choisissez de faire une difference choose to be different choose to be a diva choose to be funky choose to be yourself choose to create a fashion statement vlavegan.com"

There is one tag that says. "via vegan ltd made in China 100% pvd"

​"I love this strange, green bag. If anyone knows any information, please contact me.

Not the Secretary, I'm The Boss

Garfield & Marks Petite
​Blazer and pants set
$13.99

Bring on the lilac! This stunning purple suit caught my eyes and I took it to Saturday show of Fashion Week RI (click the link here)

What a statement to make! The blazer and pants are average but the vivid color brings the look to a whole new level. This set would make any office brighter and wherever it's worn, eyes will be on the purple suit!

Step Into Spring

Nine West heels
$4.99

Whether it's a business professional look with a twist or a casual outfit with a pop, these Nine West heels are a great find. I love the fabric and the triangle toe shoe. The hues of green, pink, and red compliment the brown accents on the shoe. 

Jinkys!

Unknown
No tags, no labels

$5.49

I fell in love with the fabric. How could you not? With the ascot resembling neckline and the 70's vibe, I feel like I'm about to go solve some mysteries with the gang. Strangely enough, this set has no tags leading me to believe that someone designed and sewed this themselves. I plan to sharpen my sewing skills and shrink the skirt and top so it can fit me. I'll take the extra fabric to make a head piece or head band.

Total With Discount

$54.05
