7/15 THRIFT HAUL FROM UPTOWN CHEAPSKATE

I love a good thrift haul - especially one where I feel I now have pieces that I have been keeping an eye out for months. I also need to add - if the North and South had a face-off of who is better for thrifting, the South wins by a landslide. I have been thrifting down here for about a year and my expectations are so high now - do better NY.

OKAY - let’s take a look.

I got everything seen here for $130 - I say that is a score considering the purse price is included

COACH GOLD METALLIC PURSE

If you have taken a look at the visual board section on this site, then you know that one of my favorite trends of this year is the metallic look. So my heart may have skipped a few beats when I laid eyes on this purse. I don’t love brands that splatter their logo all over their products, so I am not necessarily motivated to purchase purses based on their brand. I think Coach is low-key known to do a brand splatter, so I love to see that this purse is so subtle about their brand, it’s SO tasteful.

NIRVANA GRAPHIC TEE

The colors drew me in instantly, I don't think I have grabbed a t-shirt so quickly in my life. The colors scream girly-pop. While I am not a huge fan of the distressed-hole look, the "vibes" and colors of the shirt make up for it in my book to justify the purchase.

BLACKSTONE DESIGN LTD'S OUTTA SIGHT

I have never heard of BLACKSTONE DESIGN, but it is a creative directional fashion company in London. I can't find much about their products online, but I thought the fitted tee looked so chic. I feel like I found such an exclusive gem.

WE THE FREE BAGGY TOP

Guh, We The Free clothes are so cozy. Down south, it is essential to have breathable clothes, and this brand kills it. When trying this top on, it fell naturally off of one shoulder. This is going to go off when it's my lazy day and I want to still look cute-zee.

KIMCHI BLUE STRAPLESS BABYDOLL TOP

Walking into the store, this was the first thing that caught my eye. I am such a sucker for tops that are babydoll and strapless, so to find something that has both is always a win for me. I also see the opportunity in wearing it as both a top and a skirt, so if I girl math this, I got two clothing functions for the price of one.

NIKE DRI-FIT RUNNING SHORTS

I LOVE this style of running shorts from Nike. I feel they're such a flattering fit, especially for running. Then the color scheme fits that muted color look I love to see. Now that I have the cute athletic clothes, it's going to get my motivation back into my running era. Catch me running the most mediocre run in the cutest shorts.

ATHLETA BAGGY STRIP PANTS

If you take a look at my personal Pinterest board for outfit inspirations, you’ll find dozens of pins of pants similar to this. I think that having a pair of pants like this is the most essential key piece to have in anyone’s wardrobe. There is no reason to have to go to the store to get this new one, I promise you that you can find a pair in second-hand stores. I have found two other pairs similar to this but in different colors at Goodwill stores for such great quality. Save that money gf.

GOLD HINGE PLEATED TENNIS SKIRT

I have been stacking up my tennis/golf fits lately, and trying on this skirt made me fan girl. I am not a pro at either tennis or golf, but I love looking good for both. I only started this year getting on my Zoom with getting my athletic outfits updated to my style.
