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 completing the Try It, Wear It, Love It challenge, it became clear to me that I appreciate casual garments with a bit of flare. Comfort is certainly key, but looking cute is also a factor for me.And for a few months I had been on the hunt for a hoodie dress. I'm sooooo not a hoodie girl, but something about a hoodie dress just looked so comfortable. While I saw a few cute pieces online for $50-$60, I wasn't willing to spend that much for trendy gear. Instead, I made a mental note that I was on the hunt for one and my retail prayers were finally answered when I found this hoodie at the Salvation Army.It was a simple neutral color, super soft and there was a ruffled hem. Thrift store score!Styling a red brocade coat and chic hoodie

Like I mentioned a few weeks ago, I kinda needed to chill on the shopping so I could clean out my closet and truly define my personal style.But yesterday I had a reason to thrift, as a vintage shop near me was having a great sale and I was clear on what I absolutely needed to add to my wardrobe. Keep on reading to see what I scored and why it's so important to follow your local shops on social media.
