As I mentioned in my previous post, I had a great time on my first cruise ever! I just wanted to share some photos from the long weekend trip for a friend's bachelorette party. I wish there was more sun while we were there but we made the most of it by dressing up every night and dancing till we dropped!

I loved these towel animals that greeted us every evening with chocolates!
With 2 of my college roommates and they are next to get hitched...miss them!
Once again, I am a bit behind with my outfit posts after the unfortunate incident with my laptop and only recently getting my files in order. I am slowly trying to catch up!
When my sister was home from winter break, we decided to go shopping at our local community thrift store to see if we could uncover some gems and we weren't disappointed. Yes, thrift stores smell old and musty but it's nothing we couldn't handle in exchange for some awesome bargains. BUT it is imperative that you have the patience to dig through racks and racks of mismatched clothes to uncover something worthwhile. Luckily for us, we both came back with 5-6 items each...score! Afterwards, we just played dress-up with our new/old items.

Some people may find buying thrifted clothes to be gross or unsanitary but as long as you give your items a good washing, I don't see anything wrong with it. I also make sure to wipe any thrifted jewelry thoroughly with rubbing alcohol before wearing. I think thrifting can be fun and I view it as an opportunity to discover unique pieces that no one else owns.
What is your take on thrift shopping and do any of you have tips to share?
