I would never venture to section of the thrift store that housed the chlorine-scented swimwear. However, in the past few years, thrifting bathing suits has really grown on me and I realized that I’ve … Continue reading
This season, I CANNOT get enough of skirts and shorts. Unfortunately, as a petite little lady, it’s hard to find bottoms that are not only funky, but are also flattering on my physique. Most adult-sized clothing are usually too big on the waist or are too long, so I definitely have to dig to find … Continue reading

Thrifted garments include vintage pieces, BCBG, Nasty Gal, DVF, Marc Jacobs, Tory Burch, and Lanvin. This post will only … Continue reading
