TEFF, THE DON x THRIFT-FINDS VOL.2

About a week and a half ago, I ventured off to Brooklyn 'cause word-on-the-street is: Brooklyn harbors some of the best thrift/vintage joints as mentioned in this post. I don't know why I didn't document my journey to BK sooner given I was overly-excited about acquiring what I have grown to regard as "the sherbert sweater" I was equally excited about purchasing this button-up with a tribal-embroidery: muy suave.

I took a lot of photos that night and I am determined to post every-single-one-of-the-shots-that-I-love. It could easily be 30+, so? lol. Here's the sherbert-sweater. Or is it a coat? It's quite heavy and I am heavily-intoxicated with its beauty. Ah! Those colors. It was under 20, by the way.

Copped these new babies. Tribal patterns are growing to be a consistency in my everyday-attire. Hm. Swear I'm in love with canvas-sneakers. They're so practical and comfy; what more could I ask for, really?

TEFF, THE DON x THRIFT FINDS VOL.1

So, as I previously mentioned in the post titled SoHo-sailing , I had a fairly successful trip to the thrift store last week Thursday. And I did mention I was going to photograph some of my finds and share it with ya. I'm saying it like I snagged a haul of goodies. ha! Sike, nah; just three great items. I have to do it in order of favorites, starting with a black vintage velvet Donna Ricco dress. Its full price ranges at about 190-200+, but I snagged it for $45. Not bad, right? Not bad at all.

Check out the detail on the back: the bows placed at the top and mid-section. I bought it for my siblings' grad. ceremony. As much as I'm in love with them, I might end up adding 'em to the online store coming in the fall. It's a size 10, fits well, but it makes me look shorter than I already am. -_-

I'm infatuated with high-waist denim shorts and I've pretty much been daydreaming about buying a pair with floral print. My luck, I found a pair and they are perfect.

Aren't they beautiful? Yes, indeedy. Last, but not least: a snazzy-turqoise-high-waist-denim-shorts. I didn't take much pictures of it. Blah! Deal with it. I'm actually using a cropped picture from a self-shoot I just did a couple of hours ago.
