"Hey Macklemore! Can we go thrift shopping?" Don't worry guys, I kid. However, Macklemore was definitely on the right track when he expressed his deep belief in the act of thrift shopping.
I will admit, I spend the majority of my income on clothing and sometimes (well, all the time) things can get a bit expensive. Consequently, I always end up wondering why I can't just save up my money or why I can't stop spending it all! But, my friends, I have now found a solution to my problem (drum roll).... THRIFT SHOPPING!
Recently I have become so much more defined with my style and what I like to wear, and I have discovered that much of the attire I so lovingly adore can be found in these cheap little shops. At first it can be difficult, but if you really look through everything you are sure to find something you will love and the best part is is that it will most probably be under a tenner! So basically, what I have just described is the equivalent of a shoppers heaven. Well, a shopper that doesn't mind about expensive brands etc. Thrift shopping is also really rad cos' because the clothes are so cheap, it means you can alter them to your liking. This means making it shorter, changing the sleeves, even adding little beads and sparkly bits!
So last weekend I went thrift shopping and I bought a dress that is very incredibly gorgeous and guess how much it was? 6 dollars. How great is that?! I love it so much that I have decided to share with you some very dramatic photos of me wearing it. Jokes, they're not that dramatic I'm just being a major poser... enjoy!

Did I mention I got a free belt with it? I love life.
I am aware of the fact that I have a weird expression, but here is an accurate representation of the dreamer that I am.
I adore the front detailing with the frills and collar, it's just gorgeous!
Here is another weird facial but for some reason I love this photo.
Every good photo set needs a majestic sunset photo. You're welcome.
I really hope you all appreciate my optimism towards thrift shopping, and if you haven't already given it a go I strongly suggest that you do. Channel your inner Macklemore and go for it!
