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

After doing a massive closet purge and clean out about two years ago {I ditched a fourth of my wardrobe!}, I realized a few things: I had too much stuff I never wore and I actually like wearing the same pieces over and over.When it comes to the latter, I'm totally fine with that. I know what I love, what works for my body type, my lifestyle and what just makes me smile every time I wear it. And for me, that means red. It's my power color and I totally didn't realize this until after I completed the Try It, Wear It, Love It style challenge.And if you want to pare your wardrobe down a bit or mix and match what you already have, it's totally easy to do.LookingFlyonaDimeThriftyThreads

Goodwill recently opened a new store and of course I had to drop in for a visit. The Greenwich Village location {44 West 8th St} is a curated boutique with a sizable number of vintage and upscale finds.

Upon first entering, I loved how spacious and organized it was. Racks were neatly separated by garments {skirts, tops, dresses, jeans, etc} and color coordinated making for an easy shopping experience.The girly girl in me immediately headed towards the skirts. There were a ton of Target pieces priced at $7.99 or $12.99. I fell in love with {and purchased} this tulle number. The blush color is perfect for spring. It's a little large at the waist but a belt can easily change that. *sorry for the grainy dressing room pic*

Yesterday I gave you guys a sneak peek at the ruffled dress I wore to a taping of Oprah's post Oscars show in Los Angeles. Well, here's how I rocked a head to toe thrifted outfit.It was unusually chilly in LA for the few days I was there so I layered a cardigan over the dress to keep the chill away while we were in the Kodak Theatre and I threw on an asymmetrical leather jacket as we were waiting outside {in the cold} for about an hour before heading to the theatre.
