Soo, I didn't think this was going to work



..But apparently it did. Haha, I didn't think it would work because it wasn't the same type of shirt I saw in the tutorial. Therefore, I didn't take any pictures of the process {sorry!} but I took a before picture, so that's good!

This shirt just fit weird. It always had, I think I got it at JC Penny when I was in, like, 8th grade just for a long sleeved shirt; but the sleeves were too short {Kinda pointless..} So, I decided to try it out to see if I could actually get some use out of it, & I love it! So cute!

Thrift Store Haul

So, I have been going to a lot of thrift stores lately & I've been finding some really awesome stuff, in my opinion!

                      Pleather leggings                                                                Polka dot maxi skirt
                      Sniffany's - $5                                                                    Sniffany's - $7

Sniffany's - $3
Leather boots

So in the past couple months at thrift stores I have spent a whopping $110, which is the amount I would probably spend on like 2 or 3 of these products retail.. So, I think I got some pretty awesome deals! If you are "too proud" for thrift stores, I would reconsider, because you can really find some awesome stuff that is sometimes brand new, never used or hardly used for less than half the price. Just something to think about :)
