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,

This week, I had the opportunity to going to two different thrift stores for my Thrifty Thursday! I went with my friend Marie! We went to the Goodwill in Akron, Ohio and we also went to Value Discount Outlet, which is also in Akron, Ohio!

The sweater and the ADORABLE Kent State pajama pants are from my stop at Goodwill. For those of you who don’t know, I go to Kent State, so I thought these pajamas were a must-have! 🙂 …And they just so happened to be my size, so of course I “needed” them!

I am always constantly in need of a white cardigan, but I never find one that I like and yesterday I found this Ann Taylor one that was perfect! It was also a great price for Ann Taylor! (Also, check out Ann Taylor’s website, they are having a great sale right now!)  At Goodwill, I spent a total of $5.50! I saved a little money at Goodwill too with my student discount! I also have a Goodwill card that I rack points on. Make sure the next time you’re at your local Goodwill to sign-up for one! They are so worth it. When you reach 100 points (which is so easy for me! LOL), you receive 35% off of your purchase! You get a point per dollar.

At the next stop, Value Discount Outlet, I found some of my favorite things I have ever found while thrifting! I love love love the red shirt with the white flowers! It’s my favorite material to wear.

Then, I found the grey workout pants! They are Champion brand, which is sold at a number of places, but I usually see it at Target!

At Discount stores, they usually have a “Color of the Day.” This means that the color tag that is on your clothing will be 50% off when it is that “Color of the Day.”

Yesterday, at VDO, the color tags of the day were yellow and green! So, you can see that the items that I picked up had yellow tags meaning that the items I bought were all 50% off! At VDO I only spent $11!

A very exciting piece of clothing that I found was:

This adorable vest is Craft & Barrow brand! Craft & Barrow is sold at Kohl’s!

GUESS WHAT EVERYONE! I took this picture right before I dropped off the vest to get monogramed at The Dragonfly in downtown Kent, Ohio! The Dragonfly (who you should like on Facebook!) will monogram anything your little hearts desire for $5! They have so many color and script choices, it is almost overwhelming! I could sit in there all day and think of the different pairings that you can get!

This time I chose to get a gold monogram! You can see on the tag for this vest that it was $8, but at VDO, green was one of the tags that were 50% off! So, I bought the vest for $4! And then, my monogram was $5! So, I got this customized-monogramed vest for only $9!!!!!!!! YAYAY!

I will post pictures as soon as I get the vest back!

Thanks for checking out my blog!

XO,
