Thrift Haul January 2015

January 2015 Thrift Haul

Thrifting and eco-fashion are a way of life.  I am fascinated by both, and I honestly think if more people thrifted and purchased eco-friendly fashion pieces, we could save the world.  
This mentality and action behind it would create less waste on clothes that are shoddily made, and use embodied energy (energy & products that was already spent) instead of using new resources to create even more things that will eventually fill a landfill.  Therefore, to be of world-saving encouragement, and to just brag about thrift store finds… but mostly to encourage & empower, I am sharing some of my finds.  Check out my January thrift style, woot woot!

      A lot of people curate some good thrift finds on Instagram now, so that eliminates you needing to search! For example, I’m going to put that cream cape on eBay soon. Search instagram for some good shops like @retrorhapsody, I’ve purchased a vintage dress from her before & I love it!

    When I lived in Atlanta, I loved thrifting. I always found the most gorgeous handbags. You’ve snagged some pretty great items. The jacket is to die for.

    […] Most women have a few maxi dresses hiding out in their closets, so this is an easily accessible piece to style and grow with in the early months of pregnancy.  This particular maxi dress was cut low in the front, so I covered the growing bosom with a complimentary crop top.  The dress and denim jacket are both thrift finds.
