I had a dream the other day where I was looking through a girl's abandoned storage place. This girl was an artist and some how I found out her name was Erica Lim. I found some of her drawings, clothes, troll dolls, and purses. I don't know what my dream suppose to mean, but it put me in a real good mood to go thrift shopping. I don't normally buy anything from secondhand stores, just because I can never find anything that fits me right and the prices are way too high. I'm not going to fork over $40-$60 bucks over a used blouse or dress;
today was different. I went to one in the valley and finally had some luck. Let me show you my treasures.

Merlot Laced Full Length Dress Circa 70/80's $4.99 This dress fits like a dream and has a Victorian collar; so elegant! I'm going to modernize it and shorten it to above my knees. I'm surprised this dress doesn't have that funky thrift smell, it actually smells really good. I hope this dress doesn't fly around at night. Creepy. |
