Thrifty Thursday

I popped into my favourite Salvation Army this week, picked out a few things that caught my eye, and headed to the cashier to pay for my new-found treasures. To my gleeful surprise, everything was 50% off! I had tried to be all responsible and originally decided against purchasing a Zara quilted leather jacket that I had found, but as soon as I heard '50%' off I called to my brother: "Quick! Grab the jacket!"



The see-through shirt trend appears to be here to stay, and I like that the lace on this one is a little thicker than most; you can wear a black bralette underneath and get away with it. You could also pick a highlighter hue tank for an infusion of colour.





Store: Salvation Army
Brand: Garage
Section: T-Shirts
What I Paid: $3.99
What it's Worth: ?


Ah, the jacket I almost didn't buy...and I'm glad I caved and snatched it up! There's a small tear on the shoulder I'll have to fix, but a $140 jacket for $3.50: that's worth a few stitches. This is going to be great with a black and white t-shirt and Rayban Wayfarers.





Store: Salvation Army
Brand: Zara Trafaluc
Section: Miscellaneous clothing
What I Paid: $3.50 (it was 50%!!)

Spring brings with it fresh colours in pastel shades: combine that with sheer fabrics and you have a look that's soft and feminine, like this skirt.
