If you've been following my Snapchat adventures, then you saw my thrift shopping trip last weekend. I scored a dress, purse and four t-shirts for $20. But let's get back to that dress. It was a size 12. I'm not a size 12. But it fit perfectly!And this is exactly why you should ignore the size label when shopping. 
Ok, I'm late to the party, but um, Snapchat is great. Now that I finally know how to use it {there's a learning curve!}, it's not just fun, but useful for the blog.Of course I have Instagram, Facebook and Twitter where I share updates while I'm out shopping, but Snapchat is a bit different. I went thrifting last weekend and it was great to be able to show you guys the step by step process as it was happening. 
May was a pretty good thrift month for me. Well actually, late April through May. I made a few random visits to the Salvation Army and scored great pieces that are fun additions to my closet.
You ever find a dress on the racks that stops you in your tracks? Well that's not exactly what happened during my visit to Sears. I saw a bright cobalt maxi dress and thought it was okay, but I'm so glad I gave it a second look.
It turns out she's a stunner. And just $25. This Sears dress is a new favorite and great for almost every occasion. 
When I think of personal shopper service, I tend to have an image of high end department stores. The places where you're greeted with champagne and a stylist tells you why you must have the seasons hottest trends, which come attached with an insane price tag.But even affordable retailers offer this personalized service...and for free! If you need a bit of style advice tailored to your specific needs and even want someone to do a bit of shopping for you, check these stores out.
