Eclectic Prints and Thrifting for Style

This is a double duty post.  I'm linking up with http://spunkychateau.blogspot.com/ for Thursdays are for thrifters and Megan Mae /Casual Chic Kiki http://www.casualchickiki.com/ for Eclectic Prints day (I love when a day is named for an outfit).
In my world everyday is for thrifters.  I rarely feel the need to shop retail.  I'm so die hard that most of the time I won't even go to G.W unless it's 50% off day.
It isn't that I don't have the money, I just hate wasting my hard earned cash on cheaply made clothes.  I can find much better quality and things that are unique (can you say 60's print poncho?) thrifting.
Word of caution.  Sucking your belly in doesn't help when you are wearing a poncho and there is a breeze!
I'm sure my style isn't for everybody..........But that's how I roll!
So thrift on my little Silverstyle ladies, and just be the best you can be.

My outfit
Poncho        G.W.  2.50
Crops          G.W   2.50
Shoes          G.W.  2.0

  6. Great Printed Poncho!

    As a lover of thrifting, I can't afford retail prices for clothes that won't last. And recently can't afford the 'discount' type stores. So Goodwill is my main clothing store. I never feel like I'm missing out because I have a million different stores at my finger tips, plus vintage pieces sprinkled in. It's like a big treasure hunt.
