Ready, Set, Thrift! with Looking Fly on a Dime
Tomorrow {Saturday} is my second installment of Ready, Set, Thrift! and I couldn't be more excited. The thrift shopping party is being hosted at Housing Works Buy the Bag in Brooklyn. You guys already know I'm a hardcore Buy the Bag fan and at $25 for a bag full of clothing, what's not to love?
For tomorrow's event, clothes will be just $20 per bag! I've managed to stuff close to 40 items in a single bag, so that's some serious bang for your limited buck.

Thrift Playlist: How the right music can help you shop
I remember one of the first times I went thrift shopping when I moved to NYC. It was a disaster! Though some would consider me a thrift shopping pro today {Nate Berkus even called me a sorceress at thrifting!}, it hasn't always been that way. Yeas ago I was totally overwhelmed by the NYC thrifting scene and I walked out of a massive warehouse of secondhand clothes after 10 minutes.
But living on a magazine assistant budget was enough to get me back in to the thrift stores ASAP and music played a major part in it. When I started making shopping playlists, my experience changed.
