Marilyn Munroe look a la thrift & vintage

This is my Marilyn Munroe look, tee hee.

Yesterday was a windy windy day in the afternoon, so when I left work I found that the thrifted dress I bought last summer (for about $6.99, cotton, French label) was blowing all over the place.

Here I am holding it down. My pal Chris took the pic.

I'm wearing the dress with a second-hand belt bought at a consignment shop.

Notice the vintage 1980s sunglasses? Take a read back a couple weeks and you'll see them again.

I live in thrift shop dresses in the summer. At my local thrift shop, Stretch Thrift, they can be had for $5.99-$6.99 on average, and the price is the same at Sally Ann. A really nice dress is often $14.99-$19.99 at Value Village, and I'll normally only go that 'high' if the dress is a nice designer label (ie: no Old Navy or Gap for that price).

Come to think of it, I won't go over $20 for very many items at the thrift shop, unless it's a piece of furniture. Do you have a threshold you won't cross when it comes to dollars spent?

Have a great day!!
