thrift-store-haul-looking-fly-on-a-dime-thrift-style-affordable-fashion We have less than 30 days left in 2014 and that means I've been going strong with my Thrifty Threads 365 challenge for 11 months now! I can't believe the year is coming to an end, but I really can't believe TT365 is almost a wrap.

For November, I hit up a few Salvation Army locations, two to be exact. My scores range from a faux leather skirt with the tags still attached to vintage sweaters and a dainty purse.Check out a few of the items I thrifted this month and see how much I spent!

looking-fly-on-a-dime-vintage-dress-thrift-shop-thrift-shopping-fashion-discussion I've noticed something interesting happening to me. Well, it's nothing new, but as my Thrifty Threads 365 challenge comes to an end, I've realized thrift shop prices have spoiled me. When I see how much shirts, pants, dresses and especially shoes cost at department stores, I get major sticker shock. Like, I literally recoil and gasp.Thrift shopping has made me cheap!
