Goodies

Usually when I travel to another town, city, state or country, I try to hit up as many thrift/bargin stores as possible. This past weekend, I was in Vegas for my cousin's birthday (pictures coming soon!). Even though I didn't get the chance to visit any thrift stores (bummer) I did manage to find a Buffalo Exchange store. Gosh, I can not wait for a BE store to open up in DC. Apparently, it's happening this year. *fingers crossed*

Below are the items that I copped:

Fun fact: I have a pretty large round face. Duh, right? Of course.
Anywho, I always glance over the round shaped glasses because I just figured it wouldn't frame my face properly.
I tried on this (larger) pair, and it fit like a t.
Only $8.50.

Same with the cat eye shaped glasses. Just thought it wouldn't fit my face.
Tried on this pair, and it did.
Key phrase: 'tried on'
I guess I need to try things on before assuming it wouldn't look right.
Anywho, $8.50.

This Lane Bryant item was in the 'Tops' section.
Which is weird because when I tried it on, it came off as a dress.
So, maybe it's a tunic?
Who knows, who cares! It's sheer. It's print. And it was $11.50.
Score.

My very first hi-low skirt.
Why do I have this feeling that I bought this item at the tail end of the trend? lolol.
Shoo, once the trend fades into the sunset, I'll just cut the bad boy into a skirt. Win-win.
Also a win-win? The price was originally $7.50 AND it was 50% off.
$3.75. Score.

Also, I've finally opened up my lil' shop. It's called, Shop HPandS. Creative, I know. The store is filled with gently worn items that are in great condition. Pretty affordable stuff, too. From jackets to tops to shoes to skirts. Pretty soon, I'll add jewelry into the mix. Ooh and my sister's items, too. But for right now, if you or anyone else you know who live on the *ahem* thicker side of life, just click the link here. OR just click the 'Shop HPand S' tab located on the header of this blog.

Until next time...
