Thrifted for $6.81

I don’t need more books, but I love these The National Geographic Magazine pair of books about 1928. The covers are fantastic.

I suppose I could have just bought one of them, but I decided to buy both for $2 each.

The next three items I got for a total of $2.81 (because I paid by the pound). First up, this strainer I thought was cute.

I got this navy and white vest. My guess is that it’s from the 1970s (partly because of the style and partly because it was made in the U.S.A.—which indicates to me that it’s an older garment). I don’t really wear vests, but I liked the pattern and thought it was pretty cute.

I also got this pleated red and blue patterned skirt. When I initially saw it I almost tossed it aside, but I decided there was no harm in trying it on. And surprisingly I really liked it. I say surprisingly because I’m generally not much of a pattern person, but I like this colorful skirt.
