👒 Cute Little Last Minute Thrift W/ Me & Haul - Thrifting With My Mom 

Haha I just filmed a lazy vlog today while doing photography and getting ready for my Whatnot show and of course I hauled some stuff as well because I had to pop into the thrift on Saturday 😂

🥰🥰

Oh yess! Whimsigoth is a relatively new term or at least I only heard about it recently. I LOVE it altho I can’t say I’m that aesthetic. It’s like the perfect blend of boho/natural with eclectic romantic vintage with a dash of celestial crystal collector. Lots of jewel tones and textures. It’s not 100% my mom but she definitely has aspects of it in her style. It’s a cool style to look up on Pinterest to get inspiration. And you’re so right. I was drawn to that top and had an immediate vision so I definitely want to make it work. It was $22 I because because it’s an old a French designer as well so it has history.

Yup! It encourages one to be creative & have unique style! 🙌🏼

Lol Same! I find myself looking at old photos of my mom in the 90’s and I’m like ✨icon✨ 😂 like she looks so cute I wish I had more of her clothes from back then. I did manage to get my hands on a few pieces. Not to mention I used to tease my mom for using lace doilies on the furniture and now guess whose buying vintage lace doilies?? 😂😂

I feel like every time I go thrifting I see one! This was the first time I saw a whole set in a box! 😱

Thank you! 🥰

Thrifting in the 80s/90s was rough lol. Although I bet the stuff I found ugly back then I’d probably like 😂

Soooon! 😁 I’m just so intimidated by sewing but I’m gonna rip the bandaid off soon enough haha.

I swear I see one every time I thrift 😂

Omg really!? I hope you find them!

Thank you! ❤️

Thanks! The top is Wild Fable brand, I thrifted it recently!

That is so true! And back then vintage wasn’t as trendy so wearing vintage basically just meant you were wearing old fashioned clothes which was seen as frumpy (plus we didn’t have as much access to inspiration to style things). Now wearing old fashioned is retro & cool 😂

I should have gotten those, they were a good price. I just don’t have room for more dishes 😭 my kitchen is smol and no dining room. Which is why I want to move to a big Victorian manor some day. 😂

Thank you! The top was thrifted but the brand is Wild Fable. The skirt was from my Romwe fairy grunge review video and though it’s fast fashion it’s one of my fav skirts!! I wear it all the time 🥰 I very much relate to your experience. For a brief moment in high school I had a job and I bought mall clothes to be cool. Shortly after that I got more into thrifting and haven’t looked back!!

@@DressMeUpScotty thank you so much. You always have the cutest style. I love how so many people have a similar experience when it comes to thrifting.

So for clothes some of my favorite thrift stores are: Fabulous Finds on Fulton by Assistance League (on Fulton ave) I’ve also found good home decor here too. There is a Cancer Society not too far away. I haven’t been there a lot but their stuff is nice!! It’s on Marconi. On Arden there is a thrift store called Weave Works Recycled Fashion. They have really nice clothes! They also have another location downtown called True on K st. Always a great selection of vintage. I’ve found my best vintage pieces there! The first three I mentioned are all in the same area and can be visited in the same day but definitely check their hours. Some don’t open on certain days. But there’s also a goodwill on Alta Arden nearby that is hit or miss but I’ve found some good stuff there. When I go to the other places I make sure I check that goodwill out as part of my “route”. There is another thrift store further down Arden closer to Watt ave near Joann fabrics(across the street) but it’s kind of messy and the prices are all over the place. If you end up taking Arden all the way down to Watt ave and turn left and keep going there is another Goodwill on the right between El Camino and Marconi. It is also hit or miss but I’ve also had good finds there as well. They have a big book and movie section in another room which is nice. Their home section SUCKS and is always a total mess. But I’ve bought a lot of books there. They took over the spot where Tower Records used to be which had a used book section so I’m guessing that is why they have such great book shelving. Sorry if that was long 😂😂 but hopefully it’s helpful. Aside from True, all the stores mentioned are all within a similar area.

Yess plunder!!

Hahaha toast rack 😂😂 love how your brain works. Yeah I’m counting down. I hate the heat of summer and I just want cool breezy days already!!

Thank you! I definitely went to check it out more often. I always forget about it! And yeah I think my mom and you would get along very well

@@DressMeUpScotty The thrift store hop is coming up this month ...you going? Always love hearing about kindred spirits. You definitely should share your mom's style! I would love to see the blend you were talking about!!

Coming soooon! I swear 😂 haha I know I keep saying soon lol

I don’t remember besides the top I mentioned 😂 I’ll ask her to send me a picture of it and I’ll pop it into my community tab or my IG stories. It’s really cute! Very whimsical.
