Thrift Haul: Fashion

Last week I had access to a truck for the whole week and all I found were clothes. Today was National Thrift Store Day and again, the majority of my thrifting consisted of more clothing. I guess the universe is telling me something.

J Crew wool houndstooth "Tippi" sweater. SOLD.

J Crew silk check dress w/ crinoline. SOLD

J Crew linen "Derby" dress. SOLD.

Babaton lace-trim "Galen" cami, for sale here.

In a previous post I mentioned that I kept this for myself but it's just too big on me so I'm parting with it.

Moschino Cheap & Chic silk blouse, for sale here.

Wilfred silk "Minou" cami, for sale here.

T Babaton silk "Sid" tank, for sale here.

Club Monaco wool knit tank w/ silk ruffle, for sale here.

Thrift Haul: More Fashion!

Had another good clothing day. For instance, I found this amazing piece!

MCQ By Alexander McQueen embroidered cotton beetle dress, for sale here.

I tried it on in the store and it fit perfectly. I do love it but I'm also broke and need the money more.

Club Monaco one shoulder blouse. Now this guy I'm keeping. I remember when it was in stores and I really wanted it, but I couldn't justify $50 on another bow-adorned item that I'd never wear. This, however, was FREE, because the cashier missed it. 

Pretty sure it's the top version of this dress.

Milly chain jersey dress, for sale here.

Club Monaco wool sheath dress, for sale here.

Damn, I really like that MCQ dress. If I don't sell it I might have to find an excuse to wear it at least once.

Thrift Haul: La Primavera (Spring)

Well the hubby was in town and we got up to a lot of thrifting over the past few days. He bought an 80s Kramer guitar, I bought a lot of glass and silk tops. What else is new? 

My first Saturday with a full booth at Memory Lane and I've sold one item!! Woohoo!!

Goodwill

I finally got the other three cups/saucers to my one. Now I have a set of Lubiana Kristall teacups Made in Italy. Although they were more expensive the second time around. 

Value Village

Book of fairy tales with not only Germanic tales.

Odagiri lacquerware address book. The address book itself is leather and it's sandwiched by two lacquered encasings. Pretty cool.

Pyrex lemonade pitcher

Pinecone pitcher w/ ounce measurements on the side. I bought this for myself and I broke it today! :(

Salvation Army

Pretty in pink.

Avon Beauty Dust container. Once used for talc powder and a giant puff. I think I'll keep this to hold little trinkets. I love the coral pink color.

Pretty glass saucers with pink roses. No cups, and there were only 3. They'll be perfect for putting under small flower pots.

6 Cutler cherry blossom glasses. I want to keep these but I also really want to sell them. They're so pretty.

2 placemats. Nothing super special about them, I just liked the colors and they were 99 cents for both.

Value Village again

Navajo wedding vase. It's tiny but I'm starting a collection now.

Vintage Marat D'Avignon French Provencal tablecloth. Great colors.

This is up for sale in my Ebay store right now.

And two silk tops that are also up for sale. Both size S.

Club Monaco silk blouse with coral orange stripe $25

T Babaton silk "Peyton" blouse with contrast collar and cuffs $25

Thrift Haul: Chatham

So the weather turned, as it is wont to do in Southwestern Ontario. One day it's 16 and sunny and people are putting away parkas and the next day, it's below zero and there's white-out snow. Saturday, I drove from London to Chatham through flurries, that's how dedicated I am to the thrift. Apologies for the very bad photos, I took all these the same time I took the ones for the last post.

Bibles for Missions

Hand-painted and hand-crafted Italian picture frame and Somerset Mauham's Cakes and Ale

Value Village

2 Pottery Barn damask pillow shams

Wool plaid blanket

5 Jacksons of Piccadilly tea tins

Goodwill

Arcoroc France glass "Spice of Life" 1L canning jar

2 Wedgwood highball glasses in Sage Green

Small Mexican (I think, but please correct me if I'm wrong) wool runner. It's on my desk at the moment but I'll put this in my booth shortly.

Today I picked these guys up at Talize.

Retro highball glasses. Cashier missed one of them.

Placemat.

Shelves are finally going up tomorrow! Hubby and I took some plywood, cut them up, and painted them with acrylic paint in antique white. Also, while I was at Home Depot picking up shelf brackets, I stole a bunch of paint samples to use as colorful tags for items that won't hold stickers. Saves me some money on cardstock or kraft tags. I'm all about pinching pennies so I can buy more wool blankets.
