Thrift Store Thursday-A new outfit

01 New outfit from Soroptimist Thrift Store in Wickenburg AZ (768x1024)
I love wearing skirts.  During summer they are fun, fine and comfortable, especially when hiking.  During winter I add leggings and boots for a warm layered look.  I’m not trying to be fancy, although skirts like this provide more color than my plain kaki hiking skirts.  I really don’t dress for fashion, just like to be comfortable and not have my clothes restricting motion.  Although it is fun to swirl in a skirt once in a while.  Bought the above top and skirt for $6 at the Soroptimist Thrift Store in Wickenburg, Arizona.  And it even has pockets!

Thrift Store Thursday-Rhinestone buttons

01 Rhinestone buttons Yarnell AZ (1024x524)
On the way to get lumber for the steps we stopped at the Habitat for Humanity Thrift Store in Wickenburg, Arizona.  I thought they might have some lumber.  But instead I found bling.
02 Enamel on copper earrings from thrift store (1024x776)
Also bought a pair of copper enamel earrings, just because I like the art form.
03 Rhinestone buttons Yarnell AZ (1024x1002)
These rhinestone buttons are probably from the 50s.  Not exactly sure.  And I don’t even know what I’ll do with them, yet.  But I like bling!
And I really like going to Thrift Stores, even just to look.  How about you?

Makeover

Today Berta, Dolores and I went to Prescott, about 40 miles and one hour away. We started at Noahs, the animal rescue thrift store. Berta bought a merino wool dress for $12 with the original $115 price tag still on it. Unfortunately, so was the security tag. Dolores bought a colorful knit winter cap. I bought…

The goods

…the foam pad for $10, that’s a sequin tube top by Frederick’s of Hollywood for $2 which I’m thinking of making a purse out of, and the book for $2. Score!
Next we went to the Mall. Started at Dillards where Dolores wanted to buy some makeup. She talked Berta and I into a makeover.

Berta first…

Me second…

On the third try we found a store that had the right gadget to take the security tag off Berta’s new dress. Noahs had written a note that the dress was a donation, not stolen.

We also went to Costco, a bead store, a printer ink store and Safeway. And we actually made it home before dark.
