When I am thrifting, I have a method. Or maybe, an un-method.
I look through every department, and all seasons and sizes of
clothes so I don’t miss anything amazing for pennies just because
it wasn’t what I “came here looking for”. I then store off-season
and too big pieces in tubs for when they would be relevant. This
system has worked great for me for years, but it also usually means
that I don’t really find a complete look head-to-toe in one visit to Thrift Town.

In a single trip I could have a nice shirt for my husband, a 3T sweater
for my 1 year old and a chalkboard for the kitchen. So it’s kind of exciting
to find this whole look in one trip and have my daughter get a whole new outfit.

I found this sweet little dress at Thrift Town for $0.99 -
I really loved the combination of the reddish-orange with the
navy, lighter blue and tan. Gives me lots of options for outfit accessories.

These cutout sandals were only $1.49.
My girl will be wearing them all spring and summer!

This cozy GAP Kids sweater was like-new and only $1.49.
Great for throwing over a breezy dress in the evening.

This (now) headwrap started as a thrifted skirt of mine from over
5 years ago. Happy I kept it for “future projects”, cause the colors match perfectly.

All together, a sweet girly spring look.

In the same trip, I found this navy blue sweater as well, for $1.49
and it’s just right for this look. Love having options! Altogether
with both sweaters, this look is still under $5. YEAAH!
