Thrift Haul

I did a little thrifting today.
Every monday it is 25% off everything at Savers,
plus whatever color tag they have that is 50% off.
Today's color was purple. 

Anyway, I didn't get too many items on this trip.

I found this Hunger Games shirt, and it's in spanish.
I haven't read the book, but the movie looks cool, and
I thought it was neat that the words on the shirt are in spanish.
I love finding "cool" shirts and cutting them into cropped shirts to wear. :)


As for the kids, I got Bub a pair of Levi jeans, a rash gaurd shirt (for the beach),
a Nike jersey tank top, sleeping shorts, and a Angry Birds shirt. 


And for Mimi, I got a floral button down tank, a skirt, high
waisted shorts, and a cool pair of printed pants. 


I love my little thrifting buddy. :)
It's fun to find cute clothing items for her and she's at an
age where it doesn't matter that her clothes come from a thrift store.
I remember when I was younger, I didn't like going thrift shopping
with my mom. But now, as an adult, I love it and I hope thrifting
stays with my kids....lol. :)

Here is Mimi's thrifted outfit.
Her top and shorts are from today's thrifting trip,
but her sandals are from a previous one about a month or so ago.


Keep Calm
and
Go Thrifting.

Chip and Dale

We went to the thrift store earlier this week and Mimi
saw these silky Chip and Dale pajama bottoms.
She was like,"Ooh, mommy! Chipmunks! I want that!"
At first I didn't want to get it. It was a women's pajamas.
But then I was like, I could soooo refashion that into something she could wear. :P
So.....I bought it.

I always forget to take a BEFORE picture whenever I
upcycle/refashion something. But here is the final product. I turned the
shorts into a "pillowcase" style type of top.
I kept the bottom hem so I didn't need to create a new one,
and I used this soft headband elastic for the strap.
I think it turned out pretty cute. :)

Oh! I also made this jewelry organizer the other day
using a picture frame and corkboard.
I love it. :)
Simple and Awesome. :)

Shop 'til you drop

Today I did some major thrift shopping.
There was a 50% off everything sale at Savers today.
I had to take both kids with me, and all I can say is.....Yippie. =/
Good thing mommy packed snacks and juice pouches in her purse. lol!

I went to two different Savers.
It was super crazy in there! Tons of people and a line that wrapped
around the whole store.
But, I did get a bunch of nice things for myself as well as the kids.

It was mostly clothing items, but I did find this Campbells Mug.
I saw it and I was like, I soooo need to get that!


Cute right? :)

I love love love thrifting. Who doesn't?

Here are some things I got so far this year.
I'm sorry that there are no pictures of the clothes on actually people, lol!
I'm working on that. Kinda hard when I don't really have anyone
to takes pictures of me. I may invest in a tripod? Hmm....maybe. lol!

Most of the things I get are from Savers. But, there are a couple
things from Goodwill.

Anyway, on to the clothes....

I love thrifting for myself, as well as for my kids.
Here are some things I got for them.

Gap Navy/White Cardigan: $3.99 - Mossimo Jean Button Down: $1.99
H&M Red/White Polka Dot Dress: $3.99 - Girl2Girl Peach Bow Romper: $4.99
Volcom Button Down: $2.00 - Black Button Down: $2.00

I've been really into the sheer or silk tops and pastels,
which is perfect for this coming spring and summer! :)

I see lots of people who post their thrifty finds on blogs or on youtube
and it seems that the mainland thrift stores are kinda cheaper then the
ones here in Hawaii. They find amazing things for a dollar? Seriously? lol.
That's okay though. The stuff is still pretty cheap compared
to what they would be in actual retail stores.
So I'm happy. :)

I LOOOOVE THRIFTING! Hehehe... :)
