Charleston Vacation ~ Thrift Store Shop Style

Charleston Vacation ~ Thrift Store Shop Style

Excited to visit Charleston, SC I knew my clothing had to be Casual, Classic and Simple … yet Southern Proper Style.

Plus I am “in-between” sizes, with my weight loss I’m not yet into my skinny clothes.

(nothing better than visiting my local thrift store to find some classic pieces to take on vacation)

Mom’s Birthday Tree and her Party from a Thrift Store!

You know me and my “tree” that I decorate for all occasions!   Mom just had a birthday and I decorated the tree with her gift, things for her garden!   Wind chimes, gloves and garden tools (these were all brand new, not thrifted).

I realized while setting everything out for her birthday party that all of my dishes were thrifted.
