New Thrifting Store: Blue Boutique!

b1

Who doesn’t love combining fashion and hot deals? My friend Elise and I went last week to blue/ A Goodwill®Boutique / that carries upscale women and men’s clothing. I am in love with this store and have already been back six times!

In the picture above, my friend Elise bought this BCBG jacket for only $15! The prices are hard to beat. The most expensive item in the store is $45, which are the real fur jackets (yes I said REAL FUR)! I bought an adorable Ellen Tracy faux-fur vest for $6.

I also bought the black lace shirt underneath. The shirt with the vest is such a cute combo, and blue has many styles like this. Here are some other cute looks that Elise and I put together (notice the awesome art that is on their walls!):

As you can tell from my photos, I am obsessed with the poncho-style capes. No matter the look you want to go for, blue has the options for you.

Hello Everyone!

I am so sorry for posting my Thrifty Thursday so late! This weekend has been rough. But, have no fear, it is here now!

Let’s start off with the red vest with my monogram. If you read my post last week, you would see that the vest itself only cost me $4! Then, I took it to my favorite monogram shop The Dragonfly in downtown Kent, Oh. The gold thread I chose to get was absolutely perfect for this vest. It really completes it, and it was only $7. YAY! I have already worn this vest three times and it is only Sunday, haha!

Next, are the two button downs! One of my favorite fall looks this year is wearing a button down with a sweater over top with a statement necklace! It is a classic-look! Here’s what I mean, if you’re not sure what I mean:

I usually wear jeans or leggings and of course some cute boots!

During this trip, I also bought a really pretty frame. I needed one for my certificate I received a couple of weeks ago from my sorority, Chi Omega! The pretty frame was only $2. Frames can get pretty pricey and if you look in Goodwill you will definitely be able to find some awesome frames!

YES YOU DID JUST SEE A FOSSIL PURSE! Guess how much I bought that REAL Fossil purse! $3.40. It was originally marked to be sold for $15.00, but the sales clerk thought that was too expensive for me to pay, so I got a HUGE bargain on this bag! You can say that I am SUPER DOOPER EXCITED. 🙂

And finally, I found this really adorable teal blazer. For my sorority chapter meetings, we wear business casual each week, so, a blazer is a must.

This week, my total at Goodwill was $18.00!

Again, I am so sorry that this post took me forever to put up, I hope you enjoyed this week’s finds! Check out my post next week!

XOXO,

Danie

Fun Finds at Nordstrom Today!

I found a GREAT find at Nordy’s today! It’s the bag that you see pictured! I am extremely excited to use it for school! I really wanted to get a backpack for school this year because I was tired of lugging around a bag when I am gone all day for classes… But when I laid my eyes on this bag, I lost the idea of carrying around a backpack! Haha! The bag is Nordy’s brand and was as you can see, $88 but, I scored it for $44. The bag is made out of a material similar to burlap, so it’s definitely going to last me a long time.

I am happy it will last me a long time because last year the bag I was using for most of the year broke on me in March. I was so sad because it was my favorite Longchamp. I am sure it is my fault the bag broke though, I basically carry my entire life with me ALL day. When I leave in the morning for classes, (which, this year I have a 7:45 am class, I already am so sad about that!) I am gone until I finish my last class and do everything else that I need to do that day. Which means I probably won’t be home until 5 pm.

I also bought a new MAC products! YAY! I bought a new eyebrow pencil, which matches PERFECTLY! It is in the color Lingering. I also bought a new Paint Pot, which is an eyeshadow primer. It is the only eyeshadow primer that I LOVE! I think it has to do with the thickness of the primer. I am not a fan of the ones that come in tubes, they become too oily for me.

These were my lovely finds at Nordstrom today! I hope you enjoy!

XO,
Danie 🙂
