Forever 21 & Thrift Store Haul

I went to forever 21 a week ago and the thrift store this pass weekend. Forever 21 is like the only store I shop other than the thrift store which I'm sure you guys have noticed already. I love it! They have all the latest trends for affordable prices. Yes, I'm very into trends. A lot of people always try to claim they're not into trends like it's a bad thing. I kind of think that's impossible to say you're not into trends. They're hard to avoid being it's the latest trend so it will be EVERY WHERE!  I think you're going to own at least one trendy item. Unless you don't shop often, then I could see how that would be true. Anyway, just my opinion. 

I tried a store that I usually don't go to. It was the Goodwill. The store of course is not new and I have shopped at a good will before but this one was in Orlando and I haven't been to one there yet. I hated it! It was way to high and didn't have a good selection. I still got something though. Then, I decided to go to my fav. place, the salvation army. It never disappoints. 

"Forever 21 Haul"

Tribal print skirt. Love the shape of it. That's what made me purchase it.

Green tribal print shorts. Love the ruffles at the end. Thought these were something edgy to add to my wardrobe.

Grey romper. Really cute and comfortable. So many ways to wear rompers, I love them.

Maxi dress w/flower print. My first maxi dress. I don't know what took me so long to purchase one.

My favorite buy! Abstract print dress. It's so beautiful! 

A simple racer back tank. Need more of these. 

A pair of readers. Been wanting a pair for forever and a day. My fav. style of glasses.

Glasses on a necklace! 

"Thrift Store Haul"

Tribal print blazer

Lavender shorts and hot pink belt. I only own three belts and none of them have color. So, I was very happy to pick this one up.

High waist pants. I planned on doing a DIY w/these but I'm not sure yet. I kind of like the way they fit but I'm leaning towards cutting them.

Cute spring/summer color jacket. It's pretty heavy so it's actually too hot to wear out but something I'd take w/me when I know I'm going to be in a cold building.

More belts!


Well, that's all. I'll be posting a video soon so you guys can see what the clothes look like on.

Thrift Store Haul!



I went to the thrift store on Monday searching for some new eye catching pieces. The thrift store I went to is one of my favorites but this time it did not deliver. I usually go there and find tons of things but no this time. It seemed like they needed to re-stock. I did, however, find some things that are my new favs.

A beautiful spring colored blazer. I wanted a range of pastel colored blazers but this was all they really had.

Something I actually went there to get. High waist jeans. My favorite buy. I bleached & ripped these pants. 

A cute pair of green & navy striped shorts. Way to big for me but I had to have them. I might take them in or just wear them big for a tomboy-ish look.


A black fitted blazer. Something else I actually went there looking for. It's a little too dressy for my taste but it'll do for now.


Really pretty floral print maxi skirt. I love the color of it. I wasn't sure about it at first but I ended up getting it anyway and now I love it!

A very beautiful colorful top. A stand out piece. I actually plan on making this into a crop top but I'm not sure yet. It's pretty big but it still look nice the way it is

These were a pair of regular denim shorts but I ripped and dyed them today. I'll share how in another post. The color is purple and turquoise. It's much more vibrant in real life but you'll be able to see that in that post and in the video I made.


All the clothes purchased were no more than $5. The total cost was $23. A bit much for me. I usually get way more for less but I'm not complaining. I love everything I purchased. 



Here's a video of the clothes I got. You can see what they look like on and you can see what the pants and shorts looked like before I re-did them.
