This month was a strange one in terms of shopping for me. Lots of thrifting, but many misses, too. I definitely spent more than $50, but I sold quite a bit on Ebay after doing a closet clean out, so it evened out the actual out of pocket spending. I wasn't able to find too many photos of my items this time since I thrifted so much. So on to the budget!
First up is Goodwill:
- Bright blue Nike dual fusion running shoes (worn here)
- Aqua knit Old Navy scarf (ended up having a hole)
- Aqua Lands' End dress
- Red Sonoma popover blouse (worn here)
- Cream and black Merona sequined shell (the sequins itched me, so sold this on Ebay)
- Black 3/4 Chico's button up blouse
- Teal ponte New York and Company skirt
- Yellow paisley Old Navy blouse (worn here)
- Navy Merona satchel (loved this, but it didn't hold up well - showed all kinds of wear and scuffed easily)
- Sonoma tan skirt (didn't end up working for me)
- Hot pink and orange JCP polka dot button up
- J Crew denim pencil skirt (worn here)
Total spent at Goodwill: $44.11
Other:
- 2 scarves at Maurices: $6.30
- Olive Gap skinny pants from Twice: $12.43 (affiliate link)
- Ashley tee from Elegantees: $18.00 (use code CARLY to get free shipping on any order, plus they are running a sale through May 1)
- Black and white polka dot jogger pants from Meijer: $5.28
- Relic bird tote from Kohl's: $4.13
- Floral Chaps skirt (new with tags) from a garage sale: $0.50
Total sold on Ebay or to Plato's Closet: $44.78
Out of pocket for April: $45.97
I bought a lot this month. My favorites are the green skinnies, Nike shoes, the Ashley tee, and the Relic tote. I was super excited to find a couple skirts, especially the J. Crew one! I really would like to buy fewer items in May. I am not planning to thrift as much, but we will see. I'd like to get some items off my list such as:
- Brown sandals
- Cognac flats or wedges
- Black ankle pants
- Colored pants
