A couple days ago Julie, Melissa and I went thrift shopping. I love summer. :]]

Here’s what I picked up that day…

Recently I decided that I wanted to start wearing jewelry. I always have the problem of not being able to keep it on (I play with it) or just not putting it on in the first place. Let’s see if it will actually work this time. :p

From this purchase I realized that I seem to like all the cheap, plastic accessories haha. They’re just so pretty and sparkley… D: The lightning bolt earrings were like new! I really really like them, they even have tiny little rhinestones on them. Not sure if I’m a hoop earring girl yet.. only time will tell~

I’ve been wanting a new pair of comfy night time pants and look what I found! MINT GREEN PANTS WITH CATS. They turned out to be girls sized pants 914-16) from Target. Sleeping shorts and pants are some of the few things that I won’t by used (how many of you put those pants on without underwear on?? I know I occasionally do), so it was awesome these still had the tag on. c;

A $0.60 t-shirt that I plan on turning into a tank top or crop top. I want to draw some sort of design on it too~

Originally I wasn’t going to get this because it was a little large, but I figured for $0.90 it was worth getting and altering. It’s velvety~ And best part is, when I paid for it the price was only $0.45 because green tags were half price that day. :D

And last but not least, a sewing pattern from what I’m pretty sure is the 90s. The only design I really liked was the top-right one. But it was only $0.49 so I had to get it. :]

So that was my thrift-shopping haul for the day! I’m glad I have you guys to share my finds with, it’d be too sad to keep them all to myself. ;p

Channelling the 80s today with my skinny jeans, $0.90 thrifted top and galaxy sassyNpunk earrings. c;

I rarely ever wear earrings anymore though.. so this morning I kind of had to re-pierce my ears, ow. :p

Only two more days of class after today, a research paper, two finals and I’m done!

My outfit a couple of days ago. :] The night before wearing it, instead of sleeping like I should have, I took out a black fabric marker and drew on my t-shirt. Caro helped me decide on a melty alien face as the design.

I recently got the tie-die shirt for $0.90 at a thrift store, and the glasses were my most recent impulse buy..

Toast and I are so awesome together.

I visited home again this weekend, and as always I had to stop by my favorite thrift store. c;

Didn’t get anything extremely exciting this time, but I’m still happy with my purchases~

I thought I needed more sweaters, but for some reason the weather has been super nice lately.. high of 45 today! Part of me wants the cold weather back so I can have the chance to wear these before winter is gone. But only part. The rest of me doesn’t want to bike in the cold again…

This sweater is a lovely pale blue, almost lavender color~ I plan on decorating it using a similar method as the eyeball sweater (but a different design of course). :]

I’m still working on finding the perfect pair of high-waisted denim shorts. Most of the thrift stores don’t have changing rooms so I try them on over whatever I’m already wearing. :p These fit pretty well.. I still have to cut them to the right length though (they’re only folded up in the ‘after’ photo).

And finally, here’s a cute little (long) floral dress I found. c; It fit me so perfectly that I had to get it. All I’ll need to alter on this one is the length, maybe just above the knees. :D

Look at my new sweater!

Now look more closely:

Hahahahaa, best $3.99 spent ever. I bought this as an experiment (also because it’s awesome). I want to see how many people notice the design, and then see how many of those people actually call me out on it.

I also want to know if whoever designed it realized what they were designing.. or is my mind just in the gutter?

I found it yesterday while hanging out with my friend Nick. We went to a couple thrift stores, then walked around pilson and near chinatown.

After leaving one of the thrift stores, I noticed this car…

It’s BEDAZZLED. On the side was the web address “www.trishpage.com,” which turns out to be the site of an artist who does murals and face painting. (I can’t even imagine how long that took her.. my shoes took me around 15 hours, and she did an entire van.)

Nick swears he saw the van before we went into the thrift store, even though I swear it wasn’t there until we left. But I’m also notoriously bad at noticing things (even things like huge bedazzled vans), so he may actually be telling the truth.

Also, sorry for the lack of updates! I’ve been busy these last couple days finishing up last minute projects and hanging out with friends before going back to my apartment and classes~

Trying to put together an outfit for new year’s eve~~
