I just have to say I have yet to find a FABULOUS blog, with beautiful outfits that have been thrifted. I realize that we all have our opinions on what style is… but there is a reason I only buy name brand/boutique/ and designer items from thrift stores. Im honestly a little disappointed that I haven’t found any. If all of these ‘fashion thrifters’ saw my spare closet, they MIGHT drop dead. My spare closet is FILLED with designer clothes (yes, they were ALL thrifted, or purchased for DIRT CHEAP). AND, I don’t even go to yard sales (who wants to wake up at the crack of dawn??) If your a size 0-8 I can put a FABULOUS outfit together for you that retail would cost over $100, for me no more than $20! PLEASE someone challenge me! Unfortunately smaller sizes are SO much easier to style… for one reason almost everything looks good on them, and secondly because that’s usually the best stuff at the thrift stores. You can find fabulous plus clothing too, but its a challenge.
I dream to have my own TV show one day either on the style channel or HGTV called “Thrift your home”
If anyone know of any fabulous thrifting blogs please let me know.

Cheap & Chic 
I love finding designer clothes at the thrift store. I especially try to stalk thrift stores that get overstock from department stores and malls, those are the best for finding great labels for cheap.
Whaaaat?? That’s amazing! Idk of any places here that do that, I am jealous! What’s the name of the thrift store?
I usually shop at Savers (it’s a few blocks away from the mall), but whether or not a thrift store gets those items is more dependent on location. You can usually just ask a manager at the thrift store if they get any mall closeouts.
thanks for the tip! That’s great to know! Even though we don’t have any good malls here in Charleston SC, we do have amazing stores downtown… but I cant imagine them really donating things, but when I head out of town, I will definitely check! We thrifters have to help each other out sometimes! 🙂
Thanks for linking me! I try to have at least one thrifted item in everyone of my posts! 🙂 I can’t believe what amazing stuff you can find thrifting – it’s incredible. I’m going to try the $20 challenge. I’ll link it on this post – I would love to see what you think 🙂
You are so welcome! Its important for people to get tips on thrifting, it really is something to learn! I cant wait to see what you find for $20!!
