Outfitted In: Tomato and Leopard

Shirt: Thrifted; Jeans, Jacket: Burlington; Shoes: Kohl's; Bag: TJMaxx

This was this past Sunday's outfit, featuring my new $19 jacket from Burlington and $3 shirt from Goodwill. :) I'm loving both right now!

The jacket is perfect for spring, and I love the unique shape. The shirt is the perfect color and material, and I can see myself getting tons of wear out of it!

Always,
Amanda

Thrift Finds: Super-Secret Records

Records: Good Samaritan (2 for $1)

I had the most bizarre interaction with a DJ at Good Samaritan this past Saturday. (That's a sentence I never thought I'd type!)

As I was in the checkout line with these records, a gentleman with eyeglasses all eschew taps me on the shoulder. He asks me how I found the 'good records' before he did, and if I was going to sell them.

I told him they were a present and turned around to pay for them, but he wasn't finished with the conversation. Mr. DJ had to let me know that this was the 'super-secret DJ source for records' and had been for twelve years.

The whole thing was too bizarre! And the funny thing is, Good Samaritan is far from the best source of good old records for cheap in Richmond. If you're reading this, Mr. DJ, try Goodwill Outlet!

Always,
Amanda

Thrifted Vintage: Red/Heart

Heart Frame: Goodwill Outlet (~$1)

Loafers: Goodwill Outlet ($2)

Goodwill Outlet was filled with vintage goodies this past Saturday, and these were my two favorite finds. :) While the frame is a bit heavy, it was worth the per-the-pound price of about a dollar! I mean, it's gold and heart-shaped...two things I love.

Speaking of love, my go-to shoe for the past year or so has been the loafer. Unfortunately, I've had a hard time thrifting them in my size! So when these red suede ones were sitting in a Goodwill bin, I did a little happy dance. :) (Well, okay. Maybe I just smiled really big.)

It's Monday, folks. Let's work our way to the weekend!!!

Always,
Amanda

Outfitted In: Red and White

Loafers: Thrifted; Shirt: Target; Sweater: JCrew Warehouse Sale; Necklace: JCrew Outlet; Jeans: Burlington; Bag: TJMaxx

Yesterday was overcast and drizzly, but I had an interesting day of thrifting. All the thrifts were super busy, and I had a bizarre conversation with a random DJ... But that's a story for another day!

In outfit-related news, this is my new favorite shirt. :) (I know I say this all the time, but these stripes are perfect! So perfect that I just got a green one too!) I'm also a fan of these loafers I thrifted a couple weeks ago. :)

That's about all I have for now- Have a great weekend!

Always,
Amanda

Detail Shot Saturday: Snakeskin

Snakeskin Print Shirt: Goodwill ($3)

I read somewhere that snakeskin is in style right now. Of course, I didn't know that when I picked out this shirt from my local Goodwill a few weeks back!

In or not, I'm loving this shirt. :) It's super soft and comfy, with just enough of a print to make it interesting.

Well, I'm off to the thrifts! I can't wait!

Always,
Amanda

I'd love to thrift... A Lea Stein Cat Pin

Vintage Lea Stein Cat Pin: stcyrvintage etsy shop

Welcome to a new feature! It is so fun to create thrift wish lists, and who knows...maybe I'll actually find some of the things I'd love to thrift. :)

Anyway, here is the first item on my list: A vintage Lea Stein cat pin! In my dreams, I have all the wonderful colors and versions of these pretty pins. :) But for now, I'd settle for thrifting just one!

What's on the top of your thrift list?

Always,
Amanda

Outfitted In: Turquoise and Stripes

Shoes: Thrifted; Necklace: Gift from Grammy; Cardigan: F21; Jeans: Burlington; Shirt: Target; Bag: TJMaxx

I love this fun turquoise necklace that my Grammy found for me. :) I realized that it hadn't appeared yet on the blog, and it was the perfect addition to this ordinary Sunday outfit.

Actually, this past Sunday wasn't just ordinary- it was fun! Josh and I were able to go to an estate sale, and eat a yummy lunch with a gift card, and see a movie together. :) We had fun just hanging out, something of a luxury when your husband's in nursing school!

I hope your week is going well. :) Mine has been okay so far, but I'm ready for the weekend again!

Always,
Amanda
