Thrifting For Toddlers

Obviously I love to thrift! But let me just say that I love to thrift for clothing for Noah. It is insane the deals you can get for toddler clothes in thrift shops. 

The outfit he is wearing was a total of 12.50! 

Most of the time, when we are out & about, Noah is dressed in button-ups just like his daddy. Johnny is known for wearing button-ups & pointy dress shoes, ha! So of course we tend to dress Noah similar. However nice name brand button-ups & dress pants for toddlers are outrageously priced & you will not catch me paying those prices for a toddler because it will be worn a few months & potential stained. The brands of the thrifted pieces Noah is wearing..

 After I put this little outfit together yesterday for Noah I got curious about the brands & how much each piece would have been if purchased new. American Apparel starts at $30 for a similar shirt. Gap dress pants new are $26 and the shoes at target were probably about $15 before clearance.  That is $71 if everything was purchased new. 

Now, this is why we thrift! Saves $ plus its fun & you can get so many more pieces for the same price. Would love to see your thrifted pictures! Hope you link-up & Grab a button.

Happy Friday!

A Little Change

 I wanted to share this fun post originally posted on March 2, 2012 on my former blog. Currently we are crazy busy getting ready to leave for Haiti TODAY!


My Day in Pictures

Love my little Noah 

My mom & i went to this wonderful vintage shop down the road. This place was incredible. The entire place was a cross between west elm, pier one, and world market. It was pretty great. WAY out of my price range, but a wonderful place to dream & get inspiration. 

This kid cracks me up. ALL week he’s been sitting like this.

Today my parents had automatic blinds installed into the top 3 windows in their living room (their ceilings are crazy high) to easily block out some sunshine during the day. Noah was so excited but very scared at the same time.

He is so precious, he continually tries to explain that the man came with a ladder & put them up saying, “man ladder cool”.

Today I got my hair cut….

I had 7 inches cut off! Craziness. I was in desperate need for a hair cut. I enjoyed it being long & a little darker, but was ready for a little change. Since we’ve moved I have been unable to find anyone that I really like, so I waited & waited to get it done until I finally just got it done where we use to live.

time to sleep, good night.
