what you think about...

Hello my dear 199 followers ! This outfit is all thrifted. Oh, I just love wandering through racks in secondhand shops or in fleamarkets. The feeling you have when you find that one incredible blouse or necklace is just incomparable ! I sometimes spend an inhumanly amount of time in the dressing room just because I want to make sure that item is as fascinating as it seems to me and I often leave the shop with butterflies in my stomach. Mabye you think I'm crazy, but rarely do I get this kind of feelings when shopping in other random clothing stores.

Hopefully, I am not the only demented person here so if you feel the same, speak up !
Tell me what you like / dislike about thrift shops .
Do you set an aim when you go thrifting or you just buy whatever you find magical ?
I'd love to hear your opinions.

    You look amazing! And thrifting is awesome:) I love taking my time going through every rack and bin, looking for the perfect top or shoes. And I always find better jeans when I thrift than when I go to a store. It's just so much fun! Congratulations on your great haul;) xx

    I'm loving that bag! I love thrifting, but sometimes I have a hard time finding things that fit my body!

    Thank's for commenting in such a short time. Yes, Kinsey, I agree, that might be quite a disadvantage ..

    whenever I go to second hand shops with the aim of getting something, I find nothing. When I'm not looking for something in particular I find lost of things. But I find most treasures when I have 0 cash :) Murphy, I know, but it's true!

    I am a fan of thrifting! Whenever I am in my hometown the first thing I do, is shop in these stores. I get so psyched when I find something unique, beautiful and insanely cheap! Apropo de, e posibil sa poposesc in Cluj cateva zile, si tu fiind de-a locului, imi poti da niste locatii pentru magazine de gen de pe acolo ?:D As aprecia enorm

    make that 200! :D

    I usually go with no expectations, just because if you look for something specific when thrifting, you 1. almost never find it and 2. your mind is closed to really wonderful things! in my post today I found the best leopard print windbreaker for $5 - my favorite yet.

    Nope, nu esti singura:)) Eu sunt o fana infocata a thriftingului, de fiecare data cand ma duc acasa merg si prin sh uri la verificat. Uneori gasesc lucruri alteori nu...dar stiu ca atunci cand gasesc mi se inmoaie picioarele de bucurie:X

    Pups:*

    Hi!!

    First off, I love your blog. It is very inspirational and it's great to find a fellow thrifter.

    I love thrifting as well, as I always find so many beautiful and unique clothes. Sometimes it is overwhelming because there's so much to look through, so I always go when I know I have enough time on my hands to go through all of the racks.
    Your finds are beautiful!
