Thrift Haul. :)

 My total was $10.55 :)
 Oversized Speed Racer shirt that I'm probably going to turn into a tank top.
 I really love sharks, so I though this was a cute tank top that I needed in my life.
 I got these jeans in the mens department. And I already made them into highwaisted cut offs. :)
 Phantom of the Opera shirt! :) I'm undecided what I'm going to do with this top.. either cut the neck out or make it a tank top.. so unsure. But, either way, it'll be awesome. :)
And this black notebook, which was still sealed when I got it. And this brown clutch, which I am in love with already.

I also got a Green Day shirt (you can see it folded under the black notebook in the first photo,) but it's for a friend of mine, and I've already sent the package off in the mail with it. :)

I have a bunch of reviews and swatches to be posting soon, plus my October Favorites.. Midterms are finally over so I can get back fully into the swing of blogging. I seriously am dreading finals week, man, but maybe I'll make a queue up for that week if I can get myself to think that far ahead. I love you guys! :)

What are some cool thrift finds you've gotten lately?

Friday Favorites. :)


These gorgeous vintage phones. It makes me wish I still had a landline. [photo cred]

  Probably one of the wayyyy better "ombre" nails tutorials I've found. 


 These Steve Madden flats.. Ugh.. I want them.

 Her hair color. (: I've been a brunette all of four days and I already miss my red hair so bad.

I love this eye look. Check her other looks out at http://beautyybox.tumblr.com 


I found this on Tumblr and I thought it was a really cute idea.
I got this little plate type thing of Apollo at Goodwill, and plan to use it during my Philosophy presentation. I actually really like it, and plan to hang it in my room when I'm done with it. It's one a brown leather cord, and is extremely heavy.


I have a Thrifted Thursday post that will be up probably tomorrow, this whole construction thing and then going to the State Fair really messed with my posting schedule and stuff. Anyhow, I got some neat stuff, so be ready for that. :)

 We went to

Thennnnn, we got lunch, and she went to work.


I got my Halloween mask at Target.
Black Plague Doctor Mask. ;p
I needed new face primer, sooooo I picked this up at Walmart today.
We'll see how it goes.
Lipstick I wore today.
"Charming" from ELF's essential line.
Here's how it looks on.
Wore my Celine Dion perfume today, haven't worn it in forever.
When I got home, I burnt my "Leaves" candle, listened to some
Julia Nunes, worked on my windowsill plants, and sipped on some Coco Cafe.


I'm doing some paintings in my humanities class and so I worked some sketches up for it in my moleskine.       


What I wore today.
Cardigan - Target
Yellow Knit Sweater - Thrifted
Braided Belt - Thrifted
Highwaisted Navy Shorts - Thrifted

And there's my purse. I recently filmed a "What's in my bag?" video.. So, that'll be up sometime this week.

How was your Sunday!?

Thrifted Thursday.

I haven't had time to thrift this week, so here are some thrifted favorties:

This is an action shot film camera I got at Thrift Town for a buck over the summer. I did a big ol post of a bunch of their prints. I love it.
I love this purse. I use it 24/7, it was 2 bucks at Goodwill. And the sandals... RIP. I wore them everyday for about three months until they broke. I loved them.
Nude flats I got from Goodwill for 3 bucks. I love them, but they rub my heels like no other.
Bill Cosby vinyl I got at Goodwill for a dollar. :)
