Top 5 thrift store finds

I LOVE going to thrift stores! I don't love the way they smell, or how your hands always manage to feel like you've rubbed them with newspapers, or how annoyed I am that I ALWAYS forget hand sanitizer. But it's totally worth it when you find something amazing for a steal! These are my all time top 5 favorites.

Fifth Place:

Yolk Belt $3

I found this crazy belt and it was almost to crazy for me...I had NO idea what I would wear it with but, I'd never seen anything like it and I'm a sucker for anything unusual.

Fourth Place:

Rotary Dial Phone $7

I love old phones! And it's pink! $7 is a little steep for a thrift find but I've been looking for a

 rotary phone for a long time.

Third Place:

Gigi Record 50¢

I was so excited when I found this!  I had JUST watched the movie for the first time(creepy, I know!) and loved it. I also loved the cover art.

Second Place:

1953 Edith Piaf Record 50¢

I think my hand trembled a little when I picked this one up...it's hard to find records this old without going on Ebay...plus, I had also just watched La vie en rose(which I highly recommend), a biographical movie on Edith Piaf(again,  kindof creepy...this seems to happen to me a lot).

First Place:

Faux Alligator Bag $5

I love this bag so much! The patent leather looks like alligator, and the clasp is

set in a strip of tortoise shell. It goes with everything and looks 1950s/60s to 

me...I even managed to stuff it in my suitcase and took it on my honeymoon!

Color Block

Color blocking has been in vogue recently, but it's definitely not restricted to the runway- I recently went to Puerto Rico with my new husband for our honeymoon and witnessed literal color "blocks". The bold color combinations everywhere were so inspiring!

I picked up the sunglasses in Boveda, an artsy chic boutique in downtown Old San Juan, and the umbrella from a sort of Puerto rican drugstore/ tourist shop.

Beginnings...

Well, here it is, my first blog post! I wracked my brain for something epic to post and came up with nothing..so my blog has been sitting idle and empty for a week or so. I've decided to start with one of my past favorite photo shoots(I had a blog a few years ago but let it fall by the wayside).
