Hello!
This is by far my favorite thrifting find in my short thrifting experience. It's finds like this dress that make me want to keep thrifting. I found this lovely dress at Buffalo Exchange for $8.50! Now I know to you thrifting queens who find amazing things for a mere $1 or $2, this may not be all that great of a find for the price; but this was so satisfying for a newbie like me. Even F21 can't beat this! It's such a perfect shade of blue; I adore the subtle gingham print; and it has pockets! It's definitely going to be one of those many dresses I just throw on during Spring and Summer, well actually all-year long. It'll make a fine top too to pair with my skirts. Can you tell how in love I am with this dress?
This "field" was supposed to be lush with green grass, but it's more of a construction site for a future community center. Definitely not how I wanted to debut this dress, but it is what it is. I will find my lush field one day and I will frolic in it in this dress. The weather has been so perfect lately. I want it stay like this forever: high 60's/low 70's. Spring has definitely arrived a bit early this year, and just in time for Spring break next week! I just need to get through tonight's midterm first...!
Until next post,
Jasmine

This dress is such an amazing find! I can't get over how perfect it looks on you, the pattern, the fit, and the price!! I never find good deals like that while I'm thrifting but I guess I'll just have to look harder.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your midterm tonight! I have one tonight as well (I actually should be studying for it right now). :)
Oh jasmine that is such a great find, the dress is adorable and the colour and print are lovely. Well done!
ReplyDeleteps. Good luck on your midterm!!
Cute find -- I love the print! You should really try thrifting, especially in the OC (specifically, Huntington Beach) because you find some reeeeally nice stuff. Erin found a J.Crew top last time we went! :D Just a tip - happy shopping! :)

ReplyDeleteJasmine, as a lover of vintage and someone who shops at thrift stores daily, I can tell you right now that this dress is a WINNER! Such a great find. I love the soft blue and it looks so so good on you. Ah, I am so happy that you bought this dress! you make me want to wear some pale blue right now! How are you lovely?? Hope you are doing well. I want to come visit you and go shopping!!!
ReplyDeleteThat dress is definitely a thrifting gem!! I thought you got it from ModCloth or something. $8.50 is a pretty damn good price, Jasmine. I've never had such luck in thrifting :( Sigh... I can just stare at this dress forever. SO CUTE :D

ReplyDeleteGood luck on your midterm!
This dress??? Epic win! I love the print! And the pleats! So adorable.
ReplyDeleteI'm new to thrifting too, but the best item I got was around $3.50 for these esparadille wedges! But really anything thats cheaper than regular stores is good! :) I've been neglecting thrifting because I have little time but I do want a cute skirt or something...
ReplyDeleteI think its a great dress and I think it'll look even better when it gets warmer! The color kind of reminds of me of Alice in Wonderland! :)
Such a lovely dress! The favorite thing that I love about it are the adorable pleats! I have been searching high and low for a pretty pleated skirt/dress.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely makes me want to go thrifting. Thanks. =)
