For April we have a very short, yet sweet, thrift haul. Okay, it’s only two items. But it’s two items that I LOVE… so that’s really all I needed. With that being said, I just added a few items to my “looking to thrift list”, so next month may be a little extra fun (fingers crossed)!
Here’s what I thrifted in April:
Cider Cotton/Linen Tiered Skirt, $6.99
Okay, so I’ve already worn this skirt like three times since I thrifted it and I still can’t tell if it’s black or navy. I guess it doesn’t really matter, but it’s kind of frustrating that my eyeballs can’t figure out the color. Anyways, this is a beautifully heavy cotton/linen tiered midi skirt and it basically goes with everything. The only drawback is there are no pockets, but I’m thinking about maybe slitting open the side seams and adding some on my own (I mean, it’s only a $7 gamble if I mess up….).
I love a natural fiber skirt and one in an neutral color is a bonus, so this one was an easy decision to add to my closet. I wasn’t familiar with the brand, but after googling it looks like one of those crappy importer slop brands… so I’m surprised that this is all natural fibers and not some sort of plastic.
Shyanne Floral Embroidered Boots, $14.99
Can you believe that I was considering leaving these boots behind in Vegas?! We checked out just ONE thrift store on our vacation and in the entire store, these boots were the only thing calling my name. They’re embroidered. They’re leather. They’re my exact size. They’re made in Mexico and retailed for $205. And THEY WERE $15!
I went back and forth about them – I mean, I do own three other pairs of cowboy boots. Also, they wouldn’t fit in my suitcase so I’d have to rearrange everything and wear them home on the plane. My husband gave me The Look and told me I NEEDED to buy them. So yeah, they came home with me.
I already wore them a few times and I’m obsessed with them! They are so comfortable and adorable and put a little extra pep in my step. I’m so glad I didn’t make these a sad “the ones that got away” story.
