Unfortunately, so sue me if I'm wrong about what I just said, I have never been to a thrift shop...(unless you count Goodwill, which I definitely don't.) But I have always wanted to go! The other day my friend Allison who helps me with the blog ventured to a thrift store in Philadelphia called Retrospect that looks like it has some awesome finds! While she was shopping around and searching for some stylish threads she came across a fellow shopper who was rockin' a fro and a fierce ensemble!...
The low back of this dress and the simple yet stylish heels pulls together an outfit that is comfortable enough for a shopping day, but hot enough for a night out...while the afro definitely helps to add some SPUNK on top of that! And everybody knows that a fashionista can't leave a cute store empty handed. Allison left Retrospect with a GORGEOUS pink and orange floral tunic that she paired with a skinny belt to complete the look!
So next time you are trying to think of a cute store to find some new clothes, get online and search for the nearest thrift shop! Just remember, one mans trash is another mans TREASURE!
keep on keepin' on fashionistas,

Sometimes it is hard for me to even venture to a thrift shop. I need to try this seeing how it could completely save me some money!!
a good place to go thrifting in Charlotte is at the sleepy poet antique mall, theres a vintage clothing store inside that i've had some good luck with :) lots of great furniture too
I...love...thrifting. Such a great way to find unique pieces for any wardrobe. Your snapshots of the thrift store are awesome!!! I'm inspired to go thrifting tomorrow. Love love love what you picked up!! The colors and pattern are so fabulous...and perfectly paired w/the belt!!

I was about to say one man's trash is another man's treasure! It's so true, many people can see a quality in a piece that's been in someone's wardrobe gathering dust for however many years. I love her dress! x hivenn
That dress is a great find!

thrifting is so fun but you definitely have to be in the mood for it (at least I do). the pink and orange dress is so cute!
PS thanks for your comment on my ads...I'm in the process of tweaking my lay out so some things are looking wonky.. :)
Sometimes I venture into the ones in Toronto, but I never have any luck. Maybe I just need to open my eyes more, or go in with more of a creative mind!
