H2T

Nothing that makes me happier than H2T days! Also, nothing makes me feel taller than my closet mirror! 

Brand new (to me) Madewell polka dot top, Lands End shorts (rolled up! Why did it take me so long to think of this?), gifted booties and my trademark hat. 

Process

People always ask how I do it. How do you find so many great things at thrift stores, they say!

Like anything, it takes practice. Since starting this blog I've learned quite a bit about what works for me and what doesn't. I also spend a lot of time shopping. Sometimes I walk out with the haul of the century and sometimes I find nothing.   

When I hit a shop I devote at least an hour. I collect things as I go and make the final decision at the end. Yes, I have a 'route'. Books, home goods, clothes then shoes. 

This is a typical cart for me. Of this I found five treasures - a success. I will show you my finds tomorrow.
