Another month down and another month of my
Thrifty Threads 365 challenge. If you’re new to the site and don’t know about TT365 {read up about it
here}, it’s a year long quest where I can
only purchase thrifted clothes and accessories. The only new items I can buy are undergarments {obviously, I’m not going to buy secondhand undies} and I may wear new gifted items. Oh, and did I mention I can only spend $50 a month? Yeah, only 50 bucks.I've consistently stayed under my budget, except for one month, and for April I continued to stay on track. I only spent $40 for the entire month. I've actually been so busy over the past few months that I haven't had time to shop, which is a great thing for my wallet, but it sucks for my closet.Though I prefer dresses and heels, this past month I didn't find any frocks or pumps. But I did score some cute tops, shorts and a purse. Check out a few of my top thrifted picks for the month of April, including an item that only costs $4, but the original price tag says it was worth $120.
Over the past two years, some of you have asked me about opening an online shop. While I'm out thrifting I tend to post photos on Twitter or Facebook of great thrift store finds. But if they don't fit me or they're not my style, I end up leaving them at the store. Well, now that's about to change.
