Thrifted

I have been meaning to tell y'all that I went thrifting recently, while I was in Texas actually and today. I hadn't been in some time and had been hankering for some thrift action, especially since so many of my blogger buddies do it so often and I'm all too often envious of their great finds at such ridiculous prices (ahem, Allison)! 
If any readers are ever in San Antonio, I recommend paying a visit to the colossal thrift venue known as Texas Thrift. I used to go every weekend when I was in high school and it's still my favorite thrift store ever. I picked up these three beauties there a couple weeks ago. The one on the far left screams Easter; the denim/floral maxi says, "I live in Yankee country, but I'm still a Texan"; and that little red, mod dress is obviously my favorite. 
Today I checked out the Goodwill a few towns over and found all these pretty things:
Yellow cropped tweed jacket//Pale pink blazer (amazing!)//Brown&black houndstooth skirt
Clearly I was in a jacket/blazer mood. And my 3 absolute favorites from today...
Cropped military style jacket w/embellishments on shoulder//Vintage Brunswick oxford bowling shoes//chocolate satchel
When I saw this military jacket the first thing that popped into my head was Laddie from The Lost Boys. Hopefully many of you are familiar with one of the most amazing vampire movies (from the 80's) ever. If you're not, rent it.  It's actually my favorite vampire movie, with Dracula at a close second. Anyway, there's a little boy named Laddie who turns vampire in it, and he wears a strikingly similar jacket. Here he is lookin' all cute and stuff

It fits like a glove and rules so hard; I can't wait to wear it and snap some pics. My picture does it no justice here.
Welp, here's to hoping y'all are having a cozy Thursday night and ready to take on the weekend. I know I am. 

Love,
Roni


P.s. And on a non-thrift note, I wanted to share a dress that I have been coveting for all of about three or so days...I bought it early this morning and I can't wait for it to get here!
