I finally kept track of my spending this month (as I plan to for the rest of the year)! I did so good, and I'm proud of myself! My husband was proud too, I made sure I showed him this post and that I got 8 new pieces for all of $34. I always tell him how lucky he is to have a thrifty wife. Most women spend $34 or more on ONE new piece!

  4. Hi Danielle! Ok, I have spent waaaay too long stalking through your blog, and I have to say I am so impressed! Not only by your spectacular Goodwill finds, but how all your shopping seems to be thrifty and thought-through. Not to mention the adorable outfits you've put together, like, all of them!! I consider myself pretty cost-conscious in general, and do thrift, but you have so inspired me to do it more! You're absolutely right in your "about me" where you said it is possible to look great and put-together on a mostly thrifted/discounted wardrobe. The concept of your blog is so, so cool! I am definitely following along now!!

    Oh, and thanks for coming by my blog!

  5. You did AMAZING this month! You seriously got so much for so little. I don't thrift as much I wish that I did - I seriously have got to go to Goodwill more often!

    I love that leather sleeve jacket and I love each way you wore it!

  8. You found so much good stuff! I haven't found too much thrifting lately. I think I am getting pickier and that is why, but I still love to look, not just for clothes, but also for Pyrex. :)
