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.

NWT Ella Moss denim peplum, for sale here.


Milly silk polka dot dress, for sale here.


Trina Turk floral crochet "Secret" dress, for sale here.


Wilfred silk tent dress, for sale here.

Wilfred bodycon "Elise" dress, for sale here.

Splendid jersey maxi dress, for sale here.


And lastly, something I kept for myself.

Robert Rodriguez draped jersey dress.

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: Fashion Edition

I buy a lot of clothes. I can spend $4 on a t-shirt at a thrift store and I can also spend $400 on a 3.1 Phillip Lim skirt.

Love this 3.1 Phillip Lim skirt but it no longer fits. For sale here.

I go through phases when I thrift; sometimes I'm only looking for long sleeve blouses or a perfect pair of white jeans, other times I'm only on the hunt for wool blankets or enamel kitchenware. If I thoroughly went through every section of every thrift store I went to, I'd be a corpse. I only have enough energy to devote my time to one hunt per store, so as not to burn out.

But today I did things a little differently. I gotta make the most of my time now that I don't have a car and am borrowing my boyfriend's dad's truck. I think I spent over two hours at Talize.

Anyway, here's a post dedicated to some clothing I picked up today and over the past few weeks. Ignore the hideously yellow light. I took these at night.

Today:

Nanette Lepore silk camisole, for sale here.

Aritzia Wilfred "Flaubert" silk and cashmere cardigan, for sale here


Theory cotton jersey shirt dress, for sale here.

BCBG "Jacquier" tulle dress, for sale here.


BCBG "Palais" one-shoulder dress, for sale here.


Vintage SOO By Soo Kee Yung silk skirt. I bought this for myself but I didn't try it on in store and when I got home, I noticed a giant discoloration on the front, as if it'd been bleached. 

Topshop Crocus "Skater" brocade dress. Also got this for myself. 

It looks adorable on Anna Kendrick.

Other items purchased recently and unsold favorites from the past:

BCBG "Colette" colorblock jersey dress, for sale here.




Banana Republic silk ikat print skirt, for sale here.


Joie crepe colorblock blouse. Was for sale. I'll probably relist it in the fall.



Marc by Marc Jacobs silk leopard print dress, for sale here.


Aritzia Babaton "Galen" camisole. Kept this for myself.

Aritzia Wilfred "Minou" silk camisole (also got it in orange), for sale here.

Vintage Escada silk velvet skirt, for sale here. LOVE this skirt, it's so soft and luxurious feeling but it's way too many sizes too small for me, such a shame.

Vintage Oscar de la Renta silk scarf, for sale here. I got this scarf ages ago but I adore the print, it's like a zig zag stripe on acid.

Happy shopping!
