Duffle Bag

This is such a funky bag! I am always keeping my eye's open for bags to use when traveling. I seem to always get to a point were my bags refuse to contain another thing, and I have to get out a wal-mart bag to throw the rest of the stuff in (though some people I know, might say I just need to leave more stuff at home).
One thing about buying traveling bags from thrift stores is that most of them have had a lot of wear and tear. About a month ago I came across these two matching suitcases, covered with a large blue and purple floral print. Looked like they came right out of the '60s. I was so excited when they first caught my eye! But as soon as I got them into my hands I knew that I couldn't buy them. They were in terrible shape. It was so disappointing.
Regardless! I love this bag! And I always wondered why they called them duffle bags.

Baby Pink Sweater

I am a bit of a lazy person, and often find myself wearing t-shirts and sweatshirts. Some clothes a person just can't be lazy in, you've got to stand up straight, suck you stomach in, and walk correctly, lest you look like an idiot. Items that can add a bit more style to my basic wardrobe of t-shirts and comfy cargo pants are something that I am always on the look out for.

This here pink sweater I picked up at St. Mary's Goodwill (my favorite thrift shop!), and is a bit more interesting then your regular sweatshirt, but still just as comfortable. And it's actually made out of a t-shirt like fabric, which is great because I can still wear it when its a bit to warm to put on a regular sweatshirt.

Bright Beaded Necklaces

I really like bright bold colors. And sometimes when whatever I may be wearing seems a bit blah, beaded necklaces are a quick and easy way to add a bit of fun. I've picked up several necklaces over the last few months.
The only downside, is that when you're grocery shopping with a 4 year older (my sister) or younger, and you have to keep bending over to either remove something from her hands or remove her hands from something, and you're already trying to keep a purse on one of your shoulders, they can get kinda in the way.

Large Floral Bag

Ahh, just the right size.
When I passed this bag at the thrift store it caught my eye right away. I quickly took it into my hands, and put back the necklace that I had been contemplating purchasing (was way over priced for a being at a thrift store).
Perfect! I don't come across bags that I really like very often. Most are just too small, and I have to say I abhor those little purses that hang down at your hip on a thin little strap, you know, the ones that are covered with zippers and pockets.
What I really like about this one, outside of the bright floral print, is that I can open it up so wide, I can easily dig around at the bottom. A big plus for me!
