Friday Goodwill Haul!

Hello again! I've been so busy since I got back from vacation. Between flooded basements, getting my son & myself ready for school I feel like thrifting had taken the back burner. Today I hopped in the shower and decided it was time to go! :) I went to my favorite Goodwill (this one always has the best finds! For me anyways) & although I only got 4 items I was so excited about them! 

This was my favorite find for today. With fall approaching, I had been wanting a trench coat. This is brand new(still had the spare buttons on the inside in a tiny plastic bag) & is perfect! I love that it's belted & of course black goes with a lot of things. This is by Jessica Simpson and it was only $8.99, definitely a steal! 

Recently, I been trying to build up my heel/wedge/girly shoes in my closet. I have tons of boots/booties but not enough heels to rock in the warmer months. These Charlotte Russe wedges are exactly what I was looking for & for only $4.99! 

I'm not sure what the brand of these chain detail sandals are, but they are so cute! They have a slight heel and I love the tan color. Only $4.99!

I was thrilled to find these basically brand new Calvin Klein sandals for $4.99, simple but still trendy! 

Hopefully within the next week (after I tackle organizing my closet/vanity area) I'll have time to out together some fall inspired outfits and post them - fall is my favorite season so I'm so excited for fall fashion! :) 

That's all for today, until next time!

Haunted

Everybody has a past. Everybody has skeletons in their closet that they try to hide. Maybe because we're embarrassed of who we used to be, or that those skeletons contain a tremendous amount of regret. What is so frustrating, is that we can't take anything that we've done back. There's the saying "you can't start a new chapter if you keep re-reading the last one". I was a huge party girl in highschool. I smoked pot, I drank, I dated alot of wrong guys. I had zero self esteem so I fed off of attention from unhealthy sources. No, I wasn't a slut...but I did definitely dated around and was extremely naïve, which earned me a bad reputation. Today, at 27 years old, I'm a mother of 2..I work an honest job, I pay my bills on time and I am very in love with my boyfriend. I ignore messages in my inbox from anything with a penis, because I respect my relationship. I'm settled. I don't party. I don't so drugs. I rarely miss a day of work and m...

2 huge Goodwill hauls!

Image
I would like to apologize for my brief hiatus from blogging, I have been out of state a lot the past month for family reasons. For the last month I feel like everything has been a blur between running a household, kids, school and family. I've been to Goodwill here and there so I put together a haul to share with you all! I've been having a lot of great finds lately :D So here we go!  Finding 5 pairs of shoes at the same Goodwill that were my taste & size was a pretty lucky feeling, not to mention I scored some major brands. These shoes are all never worn/hardly worn. $4.99 a pair!  These Dressbarn flats are perfect for Fall! I love the deep green color and capped toe detail.  These chestnut brown Mossimo flats with gold studded detail are the cutest! Once again, definitely going to be a Fall essential.  I love Sperry's, however I hate the price of them. I found these hardly worn leopard print ones today and I can't wait to wear them!  I love the vintage/hip...

Falling in love with yourself.

Yes, you read that right. I believe that on the pursuit of self happiness you have to fall in love with yourself. You can't give your heart, soul, mind & body to somebody else if you don't love what is on the inside & what's staring back at you in the mirror. For the longest time, I wanted to be something I wasn't. I'm only 5' feet tall, I have a pear shape(smaller boobs/bigger butt&thigh area), my bottom teeth are crooked, I'm pale, my face is round & overall I consider myself more of an athletic build. I would look at myself in the mirror everyday and wish I had different features. We all see these beauty standards in magazines of women with long, lean legs, long&flowy hair, commercial ready smiles, tiny waists, curves in all the right places  and gorgeous, tan flawless skin. Let me tell you, I wanted to be that so badly. I always thought I might be "more" if I was "prettier". Comparing yourself to someone else is on...
