Kicking Off The Thrifty Six in Pre-loved Shoes!
Hello Lovelies! Welcome to The Thrifty Six. We are a group of international fashion influencers who meet once a month in our little space on the internet to share our thrifty outfits. On the third Monday of every month, we will all share an outfit based on a theme that features preloved wardrobe pieces. Shopping and reselling preloved clothing is so much better for the environment and you can find some of the best fashions in thrift or charity shops. The Thrifty Six are here to inspire you to shop second hand!
For this first installment, we’ve centered our theme on ‘Pre-loved Shoes’ (of course!).
By now you know my love for styling and fashion whether it be old or new- it’s all about creative styling for me: It’s gotta look good! And yet…this girl has got a little penchant for vintage and thrift. Nothing compares to beautiful, divine vintage pieces, and with that comes a good dose of searching and thrifting to find real gems. That is for sure part of the thrill of the thrift that brings me sheer joy.
And, of course, bling is my thing! So when I saw these cute (brand new for $7!) Aldo mule-booties at my local charity store, Nova- I just had to get them!
Then I remembered having a little silver gem of a dress in almost the same shimmer! The dress is vintage late 60’s and super cute. This glitter girl is super thrilled with the combo.
And now onto sharing what my Thrifty-Six friends have found:

I lovvvve this outfit so much Lucy. I’m a shimmer girl, too! The vintage dress is so cute and the booties are the perfect thing to go with it. And they were such a steal! I agree, the fun of thrifting is in the thrill of the hunt. You never know what you’re going to get. 🙂
