Thrift Store Score – Vol. 2

February 29, 2012 | By: stef andrews

Item: grey suede slingback kitten heels with a flower
Price: see for yourself…

Behold, the 50 cent shoes! I still recall the joy of this score. Seriously, what can you get for 50 cents? Let alone, vintage heels that work with just about everything in my closet AND are comfortable. Thrifting has been very, very good to me.

Thrift Store Score – Vol. 2

  1. I think thrifting is such an adventure! You just never know what you may find. I collect an antique glass called Fostoria American and I am always on the look for that.

    I also recently got back into needlepoint. I used to needlepoint as a kid with my Mom and I recently found a half stitched Christmas stocking and was so excited to find it. I look for needlepoint books and other stuff relating to this needle art because it kind of a dying out.

  2. Wow! But you Ms. Thrift never seem to suprise me with your finds.. You can sniff out the best in the most unlikely places!

  3. Oh! What a score! And the magic markered “50 cents” is the best part. Congrats on a fabulous find!

  4. Such a great thrift shop find!!

  5. Aww, I love the little rose-bud-ish buckle part on the toe. So cute! My latest thrifting score isn’t beauty related- I found a great vintage ceramic pot (the best cerulean glaze, I swear) WITH a beautiful jade plant for only $2! It’s going on my new desk post haste. :)

  6. I can’t remember getting a super duper deluxe bargain at a thrift store like you did @Stef! That’s an awesome find! The best vintage gems in NYC are well curated but unfortunately can come with extremely silly price tags.

  7. 50 cents!? That is awesome… I really need to start doing better digging, I’ve been so focused on household items I forget about the fashion! Great find!

  8. Those shoes are ADORABLE!!! And only 50 cents?! Unbelievable. I got a pair of leather nude pumps for $2 once. They’re really practical, go with everything, and comfy (already broken in!).

  9. I know how it feels.. Buying a great item for a cheap cost! This is why I am addicted to bargains.. You just hit the JACKPOT for that! :)

  10. I’m a sucker for a 50-cent kitten heel. Too bad I’ve never run across a pair in real life. Happy for you, though.

  11. Anybody find good thrift stores in Chicago or Chicago Suburbs??? Share!!
