There used to be a large furniture shop around the corner from me, that has since closed and vacant for the last year. I drove by a few months ago and noticed that it is now a THRIFT store! Be still my heart. It's literally in walking distance which is no beuno for me and my pockets. They had clothes, bags , shoes and a lot of furniture (hmmm, I wonder if they were pieces that never sold in the old store). Didn't find anything in the clothes section (rather couldn't fit), so I went over to the bags and accessories. I got three bags and two pairs of earrings ($1 each) for $11!


The last two bags were bought on seperate occasions. The animal print bag I saw on a street corner while driving home from work and did a u-turn to cop it (advenutures of a shop-a-holic). The guy charged me five bucks for it and claimed it was real fur...don't think so but love it regardless. The last bag I got for a $1 at my thrift store down the block and I wear it ALL the time.







From top: burgundy bag with short gold handle and long strap, white and cream fabric and (p)leather bag, black (p)leather detailed bag with short chunky handle and long strap, cheetah fur bag, large Summer straw tote and thrifted earrings.

Are you guys ready?  I mean REALLY ready for the new season of Project Runway?  It's one of my favorite times of year and has consistently been one of my top 5 shows.  I was counting down the months, days, hours.  Can't wait to of course look at what the new designers will bring, but I LIVE for Heidi's wardrobe (on the show, not off) and smart comments and I live for Michael Kors' facial expressions..lol.  Anywho, will you be watching?  For more info on this season and to check out the list of new designers, click here!
