Thrift store find!


It probably comes as no surprise to anyone that I love shoes and I collect clothes like they are going out of style. 

I've been following a few people in blog land for their clothing posts for ladies over 40. Look it up its a thing I swear! 

I've come to the conclusion that I don't want to look like an old lady because of how I dress. So keep that in mind as I pepper this blog with photos and posts about the way I dress. 

I'm a thrift store shopper. I do buy some things new, and I usually cringe every time I pay full price. But the thing is, if you have time to go to thrift stores, you can find some awesome brands at cheap prices. 

For example: 

This is not my photo, but I bought these exact boots at Goodwill. In my size. For $5. Big deal? Yep, originally this LAMB BY Gwen Stefani bootie cost $395. So yeah, awesome find. 

I'm blessed to have a job that takes me all over central Indiana. There are literally over 20 goodwill stores in my monthly commute. I've only been to half a dozen so far. But I always find a good deal. 

So yes go to the thrift stores. Take your time and walk around you might find something awesome!

Hello? Is this thing on???

I went to school after all. I went and read through my past posts and in my 2nd one I said I might go back to school. Well after unsuccessfully looking for a good job, I finally figured out that if I wanted my dream job it might help to have the right kind of education. 
Then the more I thought about it the more I realized that I love decorating and crafting and maybe an Interior Design Degree would suit me well. 
So after 2 of the most intense years of my life I graduated Magna Cum Laud with a degree in Environmental Interior Design.  Yay go me! 
I've done a few crafts in the down time (my friends will think that's hilarious, because downtime usually consisted of any time that I should have been cramming for a test). When I get time I'll update you on those things. 
Ok done for now yay welcome back!?!?????
