Goodwill Ambassador

Looking around my home, there's a story behind most of the items lying around. Whether they were gifted, thrifted or traditionally bought, I love collecting useful, interesting items that mix modern with an eclectic touch. After each visit to my local Goodwill, 9 times out of 10 there's an item I can't pass up. Whether it's a classic addition to game night or a spinning globe to track new destination, my rooms are constantly incorporating pieces collected over time.

Boyish Charm

Today's post features my new favorite "comfy" jeans, found at my local Goodwill for $5! My hunt for a boyfriend jean has come to an end, and I couldn't be happier it cost me the same as a Mango-a-go-go at Jamba Juice. Score!

There's nothing better than scouring through a bunch of shrunken, worn-out, and tacky clothing, and actually finding some treasures. Trust me, last time was a total bust. This time, I strolled out of there with 2 pairs of jeans and a silk Banana Republic sleeveless blouse. Items that I'm sure will make an appearance in later posts.
