According to me,
today was a pleasant surprise. I went to a cute down-town area because it was having an art fair of sorts. I wasn't expecting much, but you never know. I set myself a money limit: $10. Yikes. Low, I know. But I've been going through money like crazy lately.
I was walking by a resale shop when I spotted a basket full of colorful scarves. They were the smaller square ones. I figured, why not? I've never owned a small scarf before. I picked one that's bright blue with green and pink flowers on it (it'll look great tied to my big tan leather bag!). I went in to pay for it, and it was only 53 cents! A complete steal, in my opinion. I realized everything in the store was half off. Heaven? Yes.
I was scanning the racks and saw a whole section devoted to blazers. It was fate (or something like that...haha). I have been searching for a blazer constantly! I decided on a red one. It's amazing. I cannot wait to wear it. Also, I found a small brown leather purse with a short chain handle. It was really cheap and I figured it would look cute with a lot of outfits. All in all, that store was a huge hit in my book.
The best part? I only exceded my spending limit by 57 cents :) Well worth it.
Later, I went back to my boyfriend's and he had some extra button down shirts he didn't need anymore. JACKPOT. I was given one :) It's light blue and amazing. It might be long enough to be worn as a dress, we'll see haha.
Pictures of my new finds will hopefully be up soon. I thoroughly enjoyed my day :)
WOOO! That's pretty awesome, I really wish we had places I could go around here where there were flea markets. But my friends wouldn't want to go...maybe my mom would though haha
