If you’re not new to Looking Fly on a Dime, then you may remember my Thrifty Threads 365 challenge. And if you’re not familiar, let me give you a quick refresher…

Thrifty Threads 365 was a year long thrift shopping challenge I originally started in September 2010. I only purchased secondhand clothing for 365 days {the only new clothing I could buy was undergarments}. Well, I successfully completed two separate cycles of Thrifty Threads 365 {first in September 2010-September 2011 and then October 2011-October 2012}. Both times I shopped thrift and vintage shops and the last time, I even stuck to a $50/month budget. I ended up spending just $460 on clothing for 2012.

Well, I’m thinking of starting Thrifty Threads 365 up again…

This time around I’d start the TT365 challenge on January 1, 2014 and go throughout the entire year. That means more thrift store hauls and weekly Thrifty Threads outfit posts so you can see how I style the thrifted finds.

I initially started the challenge to really show people firsthand that it’s possible to shop for all of your clothing and accessory needs via thrift stores. Also, it made me reinvent my outfits and think of fun ways to style them {either in head to toe thrift or mixing “new” thrifted pieces with items in my wardrobe}. But it was also a great way to save money.

So what now?

The last time I added a twist by giving myself a $50 budget each month, but I want to do something fun and different this time around. And even have some ways for you guys to get involved. So this is where you come in. I want to hear what you think.
