Happiness Is....

Updating your wardrobe for cheap! I admit it, when the seasons change, I always want to update my clothes – at least a little bit! I’m not into keeping up with the latest trends, but it is nice to have something different to add to the mix!

The other day I went to my favorite thrift store and picked up some great updates for my wardrobe. I got three cute skirts and a pair of capris, all for $7!

I love the buttons on these capris from Talbots!

Even though I’m saving money, I still try to follow the one item out for every item in rule. My husband would tell you that it shouldn’t be a problem for me – I have plenty of clothes I don’t wear!

Ann Taylor - perfect for the beach!

I'm hoping we'll have a clothing swap soon - another great way to get clothes cheap!

How do you get good deals on clothing?

Thanks for linking up!

Plus it's really close to wear I work, and for some reason always seems to get a lot of great clothes! It's the only one I shop at. : )

I shop ebay and consignment stores and I will never ever pay full price at a department store, I always hit up sales or clearance or have a coupon or gc on hand. :)

Visiting from RSDOI and the Happiness Is hop. Thanks for sharing Happy Thursday! ☺
