It's been forever since I did a thrift store haul. Like seriously, for-eva! That's because I've been busy, but more importantly, I stopped thrifting for a while. After doing my mega closet clean out and purge, I became insanely picky about what I'd buy and add to my closet. That's a good thing!But once I felt the need to shop {versus simply wanting to!}, I hit up L Train Vintage in Brooklyn and found tons of goods. So of course I had to make a video dedicated to everything I found...including the most awesome vintage jacket I'm officially obsessed with.Looking Fly on a Dime thrift store haul, styled mom jeans and crop top

This weekend I did something I normally don't do: I went thrifting in Brooklyn. I lived in Manhattan for three years so I typically stayed on the island for my thrifting adventures, except for my Goodwill Outlet trips in Long Island City.It was a sunny Sunday afternoon and the Goodwill on Fulton Street was my intended destination {more on that Monday} but the highlight of the afternoon was a little shop called Not Just Vintage.Located at 1260 Bedford Avenue, it was originally recommended to me by my friend Starr aka Gangstarr Girl.Not Just Vintage has such a quaint mom and pop feel, but with better fashion. Bright colors, funky patterns and statement accessories were in abundance. And the prices were super affordable. The owner immediately alerted me that items outside were $2-$3, garments with an orange dot on the tag were half off and other items were 25 percent off. Music to my cheap ears!
