I guess I have in mind being more experimental and not always relying on jeans to tame my outfits. We shall see .<br />I hope you will post yourself in the new boots with drapey jogger combination <b>Janet</b>. I have seen that sort of look pop up for years on and off and I feel like it is in an on phase. Vintage argyle sweaters are definitely the way to go. Honestly vintage sweaters are one of the best things to thrift as I say ad nauseam . Anyway, thank you!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2378126 Sat, 11 Jan 2025 13:35:18 +0000 Janet 2378126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great! I occasionally stop in the thrift stores near me and rarely find anything interesting that would fit me, so I always admire the quality of what you find.</p> <p>I have a fondness for argyle and am waiting for it to cycle back around, but maybe vintage/thrift would unearth something — the one you’re sporting here is excellent! I like argyle the most for me if it’s not too classic or has a twist. </p> <p>I’m also intrigued with the pants tucked into the tall boots. I was at the Rack yesterday picking up a pair of boots I ordered to try weeks ago, and while I was trying them on, I spotted a pair of Splendid black faux suede tall(ish) boots that have a wider leg. I pulled them on over the drapey joggers I was wearing and quite liked the effect, much to my surprise! And they were super comfortable. The boots were a good discount price as well, so I brought them home to try. Seeing you sporting this look is validating! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2378107 Sat, 11 Jan 2025 05:14:14 +0000 Bijou 2378107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful in all of these with #5 and #6 being my favourites.

You embody the goal of having fun with fashion and pull it off in sustainable style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2378088 Sat, 11 Jan 2025 01:39:01 +0000 pil 2378088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all and your smile and hair are wonderful accessories!

Those jeans were a surprise best find. "Just" Levi's ribcage straight that I recently found and thought I would resell because high waists don't usually work on me. But it turns out ribcage is not meant literally - who knew !<br /><b>Suz</b> - After I wrote you about the jacket I started a bit of a search I found this on ebay:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/356428935996?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D777008%26algo%3DPERSONAL.TOPIC%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20230811123856%26meid%3Dbc8ee7e73bbb4dbe859d0df6f70af022%26pid%3D101770%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26itm%3D356428935996%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D4375194%26algv%3DRecentlyViewedItemsV2WithMLRPbooster_BP%26brand%3DICHI&amp;_trksid=p4375194.c101770.m146925&amp;_trkparms=parentrq%3A4880c7c41940ab1295c311e1ffff3dac%7Cpageci%3A3a0c01ad-ce22-11ef-96ea-3ad7e99ff767%7Ciid%3A1%7Cvlpname%3Avlp_homepage">https://www.ebay.com/itm/35642.....SONAL.TOPI</a><br />I believe it is the exact jacket and there is at least one more listed.

I </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377794 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 15:03:37 +0000 Angie 2377794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm loving the additions of colour, <b>Jaime</b>! They bring out your radiant skin :)</p> <p>Your glorious mop of silver curls is growing! And everything <b>Suz</b>&nbsp;said.&nbsp;</p> <p>White is one of your best colours! Like <b>Star</b>, I like #5 best - KILLER.</p> <p>#2 is deliciously pink, and #7's knickerbocker look makes me smile! Soooo fun! Fab nostalgic KILLER throwback that you wear with panache. The browns work beautifully together!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377788 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 13:59:35 +0000 Jaime 2377788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all! I have been frequenting second hand stores since university and working on and off in a charity shop (p/t) for over a decade, so I have a considerable advantage in finding fun pieces. Everything I am wearing in all of these outfits is second hand, btw.<br />Thanks <b>Lisa</b>! I definitely suit bright colors. The argyle is Eric Bompard cashmere, a stunning find at a thrift store several years ago (I am pretty sure I posted it before). I was shocked to find it!<br />Thank you for asking about my hair (and everything else)&nbsp;<b>Suz</b> . I am still letting it grow from the unfortunate incident last July. I like it some days more than others. So the jacket in #5 is vintage Miss V Valentino (vintage ready to wear line - still usually very reasonably priced). I have thrifted quite a lot of that over the years but this is one of my favorites. The pants in the last one are actually cropped and pretty much end where the boots begin but I liked the balloon effect. The pea coat is +J Uniqlo. The gingham jacket is a relatively recent find by Ichi Antiquites. I had never heard of the label, but am always interested in made in Japan clothing that looks high quality.&nbsp;<br />Thank you <b>Star</b>! That pink jacket is vintage from the 60s I believe. I have been wearing and collecting bright pink for some time!<br /><b>Sisi</b> - thank you! I am very lucky to have found all these things!<br /><b>kkards</b> - Argyle becomes the thing every few years it seems (as with most everything), but if it is going to big I am prepared . And thank you!<br />Thanks <b>Dee</b>! I was a bit tired of my default of all jeans all the time with the last one!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377787 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 13:45:42 +0000 RobinF 2377787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great finds. Love the jackets especially, that plaid and the fur collar are so cute.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377781 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 13:21:28 +0000 Dee 2377781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like a fun time experimenting , my favs are the argyle sweater, love the bold colours, its not your typical argyle.<br /> I also like how you've style the total look in # 7, very fashiony chic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377780 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 12:07:21 +0000 kkards 2377780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF…the red is fab, but the cuffed jeans, the high boots and the balloon pants, an argyle cardigan (that I read somewhere is the next fashion “thing”). It’s all so good. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377775 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 11:10:50 +0000 Sisi 2377775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, these finds are so beautiful! I love the geranium pink jacket and you look fab in # 5. You have wonderful thrift stores where you live! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377773 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 06:04:44 +0000 Star (Lise) 2377773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>5 is my absolute favourite, the cut of that jacket is so good, and the subtle fur on the collar - very cool! 1 &amp; 2 are my next favourites. The cut of your jeans is totally up my alley too. YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377771 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 05:23:44 +0000 Suz 2377771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing. I love how your hair is looking. Are you happy with it?&nbsp;</p> <p>I am curious about what appears to be the vintage jacket in #5. I like the piratical tucked in pants in #6/7. Gorgeous pea coat in #4. Very cool little gingham jacket in #3 that I am also curious about. And the mixed argyle sweater is gorgeous on you, as is the bright pink coat. Also, those big hoop earrings!&nbsp;</p> <p>I love it all.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377769 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 04:17:37 +0000 Lisa 2377769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have an excellent eye for thrifting!</p> <p>I especially like how the brighter colors really liven up your face in #1 and #2. And that purple/lilac color of the gingham blazer in #3 is simply lovely on you and perfect for spring. The blouse and jacket combo in #6 and #7 pair really well together too. You've got some lovely finds here!</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrift-store-selfies--winterish-edition#post-2377768 Wed, 08 Jan 2025 03:32:26 +0000 Jaime 2377768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some recent thrift store selfies - please note the spots are on the mirror not me! I am trying to experiment more .<br />No notes but there are lot of vintage/designer pieces so if you are curious just ask!&nbsp;<br />All comments, suggestions and questions very welcome - thanks for looking! </p>
