I'm Back!!

So I have been MIA because... I got married this weekend and it was absolutely amazing! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect weekend in Candler, NC. The weather was perfect, the venue was perfect, and everyone that came to support us was perfect!

I wanted to apologize for not being consistent with my posts lately but the wedding, moving, and the new job have kept me a little preoccupied. It's still going to be crazy because next we are going to be looking at buying our first house.

I wanted to get in touch and post a few pictures of my wedding and talk about my next blog. My next blog post will be a short one on my monthly thrifted outfits of the month. I am going to try to do this once a month to keep giving you all ideas on how to make thrifting stylish. There are only a handful of October outfits but I will be sure to have more for November since I need more fall tops!

Following the Monthly Thrifted Outfits will be a blog on the best things to purchase from the thrift store!

Here are a few pictures of my wedding...not many since they are still being edited.

2018 Reading List

I know I know, I have been missing in action again and this post is almost two months late but better late then never.  Two of my New Year goals are reading for 45 minutes a day and reading at least 12 books for the year. In order to stick to this goal, I like to make a list of books that I plan to read for the year. Since I have so many thrifted books, the majority of my list will be books that I have thrifted and want to tackle. I have another goal for myself to not buy any more books until I have read a chunk of what I already have. I am going to share my book list with you in case you want to join me in reading them. I will post on my instagram (thrivingthrifts06) which book I am tackling for the month. Now, the first three books on the list I have already started and finished since I am posting this two months late. This is a general list of all thrifted or gifted books. The order it is in doesn't mean that is the order I am going to read them in for the year. The list ...

Tips to Thrift! 10 Do's and Don't's of Thrifting!

That time of the year is here! The weather is getting cooler and garage sales are beginning to cease. But have no fear, thrifting is here! I know, I know, corny but I had to. On a serious note, I am going to talk about my 10 tips to thrifting that I believe will help anyone become a true bargain shopper. Of course, there are tons of thrifting tips but these are my go to tips to anyone trying to utilize their second hand stores. Tip #1: Make a list of what you need. Don't get me wrong, there are days when I just want to step into a thrift store just to browse and there is nothing wrong with that; sometimes that is when you find the most amazing deals. However, having a list can keep you focused and can make you plan for certain deals in your areas. Example, my Goodwill does $2 Tuesday on clothes so when I am looking for clothes items I tend to try to go on those days. Tip #2: Do the research in advance! Check out your local thrift store deals and coupons. Check out the weekly co...
