just little things

Everything in this photo is under $10! I'm such a thrifty, frugal girl. Phone case- amazon, wedges- Target, fur vest- thrifted, DIY lace trim shorts- thrifted (then I added the trim!), sunglasses- Target, ring- thrifted.

detailzzzzzz

DIY lace trim shorts! I'm not entirely finished with them (have to sew up the edges- they look messy). Just use fabric glue and then sew them on!

DIY lace trim part 2- back side.

Was feeling healthy yesterday, as you can see (a rare occurance for me). I already ate all the blueberries...oops.

Salad w/ avocado! Yum yum yum.

Spent the morning out thrifting with my sister and found so many great things (those lavender shorts being one of them) and the rest you'll probably see soon! I'm such a sucker for buying sweaters in the summer because I miss autumn/winter so much....I bought like 5 and I almost regret it but not really because it's better to get them now when they're cheaper!
I also DIY'd some shorts when I got home because I had like 6 cups of coffee and was starting to go insane from a caffeine overdose and needed something to do.
I still need to touch them up a bit, but overall I'm happy with the outcome!
I'm also a huge salad nut (favorite food!) and have been trying to step outside of my caesar-salad-only routine and add new things, so yesterday I tried avocado! Tasted even better than I expected :')
We're also having an unexpected thunderstorm here right now (which is a huge blessing in Texas) so today has been a good day!

nifty thrifty

Found these two faux fur vests at the thrift store today and fell in love! I've been on the hunt for a reasonably priced faux fur vest for ages and I stumbled upon two in one day! The first one is more of what I was looking for, and just as I was about to leave, I walked through the little girl's section to get to the checkout and saw the white one! I was so thrilled so I ran to the dressing room (2nd photo, as you can see) and was so happy to find that they both fit! I guarantee you will see a lot of these two vests in my posts this autumn/winter!!

A few more things I found whilst thrifting, but these were from yesterday. Two pretty (and big!) mugs, a cozy sweater, and two beautiful leather wallets! I replaced my old wallet with the pretty one on the left, and the other will probably be up for sale on my etsy soon!

faux

This cute little faux fur vest was at the thrift store, and if it hadn't been so (unfortunately) cheaply made, I definitely would have bought it! Sooo cute! I need fur in my life. Too bad it's hotter than hell here in Texas (110 tomorrow).
+ Also if you look closely, you can see my stitches on my leg!
