Saving With Shellie

AUGUST 8, 2012

I am a military wife and our clothing budget is Spartan, at best. About five years ago, I started thrifting. The next time I’m at a thrift store, then I know to focus my attention there. but I prioritize the needs first. :: Find “Your” store. Not all thrift stores are created equal.

My husband found this jacket at a thrift store for like 2 bucks. Acid washed, colored denim, military style, cropped…I don’t even care. I’m always so thrilled by my husband’s thrift store finds. I am up for one, maybe two stores, and if I don’t find something AMAZING at one of those I am ready to call it a day.

Vintage, maybe a slight military feel and cheap, in case it turns out I’m not such a pin wearing girl after all. Because we are broke, I’ve been trying on jeans at thrift stores, Ross, and second hand stores. I have been searching for a cool pin for ages. That’s a long time. And as a result, we are pretty broke.
