still look good that's the way to do it yeah so I think we want to estate sales
third stores consignment stores all in my life and I learned to dress my
children the same way I you guys have always heard me say on my channel I do
not pay full price and this is the queen of that my aunt my grandma my auntie's
everybody that's we don't pay full price you could still look beautiful and not
pay you know barking store should I say retail store prices there's no reason to
do that we're not paying those big box stores anymore and this one teaches me
some new things every once in a while too hence the thrift haul fun you guys
know we go I go to the Salvation Army sack sale last month me my mom went and
we wrecked okay oh we've got bucket full of clothes and nowhere to put them
it's like you fall in love with every piece I was telling TJ like he's like
you should get rid of some and like every piece I'd be like but this is my
favorite because she's this and this is my I could mix up with this and I can
match with that and it's a whole new look did you save stuff for like special
occasions like I have a dress I'm like I just need to wait until I get pregnant
I'll wear this to my baby shower well now that you mention it actually in this
last hole I found this particular dress it's a wrap dress for John so in New
York I have no occasion to wear this dress but I bought it now getting
occasion wait it's the perfect dress and what woman doesn't look good in the wrap
dress so yeah listen if there's anything else there's a I'm gonna just do a video
101 style tips I've learned for my mom a wrap dress will save your life you don't
know what to wear work what about your address
no it's weird party without director it's a look so today we're gonna show
you guys what we got and what looks we put together with them I'm gonna start
with this men's blazer yes you guys know I shop in every section men's women's
kids pets animals we shop in every section so I got this men's blazer and I
belted it with this oh I forgot a third to this belt you didn't I searched it
with this snake print belt that I got from Goodwill it's a hundred percent
genuine leather yes yep thanks get your percentage anyone snakes in person
that's the best way to have a snake sorry it's a hundred percent genuine
snake skin I paired it with this black turtleneck it's a thin turtleneck but
it's so warm I'm sweating right now and of course a beret for a Parisian look I
like this cuz it looks like a dress when I stand up see it looks like a little
mini dress but thank you I like it you can get away with that in my age the way
my body said I can't quite get away with that you got the lids for it I guess if
I do it I have to do it with a short bootie or something like that
Oh that'd be cute okay mom suppose about your outfit so my outfit is a fully
drifted off but I didn't realize it was a fully threaded outfit I'm so glad I've
actually put it together mm-hm so my top is actually a cardigan
and I said you know I'm gonna change this look it's always been not quite
right so I belted it and I took it off the shoulder to kind of create that off
the shoulder asymmetrical mouth cute and then I put it over these facts now I
personally went out looking for specifically a slacker that could cut
into a culotte and this is just the perfect length I just need to have it
just slightly maybe an inch or two yeah and then I've got my Michael Kors
booties that I got from another estate sale two years ago but I love these
shoes I get so many compliments on them they're perfect they've got the perfect
little gold accent did you get them brand new cuz there's a really good day
where brand new when I got them and I've kept them well for these last year's
after a little bit of a repair the other day I loved them so much that
kind of love them out of the song so splitting a little bit but that's
neither here nor there now what I would suggest ladies of us of a certain age
you know we can't be having the girls hanging out so much so what I tend to do
with a lot of my blouses and my rap shirts and things like that I actually
put a little anchor button one of those little secure buttons that kind of snap
and I snapped my cleave shut a little bit and I am looking for the perfect
leather brown Obi belt that's coming as I said they're not quite the length of a
lot I'll probably bring them up about another inch or two like just under the
knee just under the knee but it's the perfect color combination I found under
the amount of chromatic door and I like it it's gorgeous
I like it a lot thank you tip is get you a husband or a dad who can sew because
that makes all of our alterations for us he has instructed that we will have an
instruction class coming soon yeah so we can do the basics that makes the hemming
and things like that yeah and we I think if you probably have a bag full of
things that you have projects yeah reverbs wreaths innocent yeah as we like
to say you guys know I love a good thrift transformation simple stuff like
this where you can take a take a cardigan and then resell it like a shirt
is easy but stuff that we want to sew and reconstruct we're gonna mean take a
sewing class from dad yeah and he's he's really good about it yeah he's been
fishing my stuff from years I don't sew but I cook very well uh-huh it's a good
balance it's about yes our next piece okay guys so next up we have kind of
more business casual outfits workers are my mom's outfit because it's so fly okay
so I don't mean for us Chanel look until I can afford an actual Chanel jacket
that's what needs so three months we need it doesn't have the little
Ferengi's on it that would make it true Chanel but oh
it's nice weed I don't know if you can really see the detail but this top got
like a burnt orange kind of gold Fleck going through it you're not that much
cute pearl buttons very 97 very - very cute very cute it's got the feel and the
look of this Chanel look that I did want yeah and I love how it buttons and kind
of tapers in that way yes it does good as me hits your waist gives me a little
definition that I want and this fine piece we got for six bucks it was six
dollars at Goodwill yes week and we really scored because Felicia went well
went and we each had a $5 coupon whoo none of us spent over $20 correct and I
got six pieces yep and William got five pieces including
his got his dad's and I got five belts and a couple of pieces yeah we were
really who really racked up this weekend but I'm wearing it with my classic
bootcut denim firmly firmly by and again I stole a white t-shirt out of hubby's
closet I have no shame in stealing to complete my look no point I need you oh
and I didn't have a white t-shirt that was a cap sleeve that I wanted that look
to finish so he'll have to get over it and I just paired it with my Michael
Kors booties that I was wearing earlier so there you have it so I like it and
your dope okay my bail actually my belt is actually the shoulder strap to my
Louis Vuitton Alma handbag so don't be afraid to pull things and we work them
as needed people really nice so theta softly uh mums look is very polished
very casual Friday but best dressed on office casual Friday like who do you
know in your office that has a Chanel inspired tweed jacket you know that's
okay until we can get the sugar okay Chanel inspire will do just fine it
looks and it hits your waistline really well you have such a natural narrow
waist it hits it perfectly we tried everything else a little bit so the next
piece I paired once again with my classic black turtleneck I feel very
Parisian in a turtleneck boring combo and then I got a quarter ROI skirt from
loft I know if we bought this in a story we probably like what 40 bucks for this
yeah so this is a quality piece that I know it's gonna last long I gotta go
weightless I got this in the SAC sale so I probably paid like 80 cents a piece
for this yes honestly such a s'more I've paired it with a simple black top but
this would look good with another quarter right have you seen those
corduroy button-ups I had I had would wear this with another quarter a
button-up like maybe like that it would be like not pattern mixing color
blocking it won't like color blocking and I think that would be a really fun
look but for now simple black Parisian style well we pair with this I would do
a knee-high boot even if it's just a flat boot I would do a knee-high boot
and a sheer stockings oh thank you yeah they're really very fall style
now you mentioned the sack sale I did the map the other day oh yes um I ended
up spending about 17 dollars and really the 17 dollars was only because I end up
spending $4 on a half priced item that I just that I found on the floor
everything on the floor a blue ticket items on Saturday were a half price off
and I found like the one you take that item and it was really little cute shirt
dress I'll show it later we must have but I had to have I just loved it I was
looking for a particular shirt I love the pattern so I got that one but
I did the math we did I ended up with twenty seven pieces in my home and
they're just like you know top skirts jackets yeah a little bit of everything
free but I only paid $15 for the 27 pieces they're gonna end up doing I
added up just not even I guess I would say thrift retail what the tags
initially said it was a hundred and eighty dollars I spent a total of
between goodwill and the sack sale at Salvation Army is $35 yes and that's
thrift retail is the 180 I imagine in stores right now we would have paid
upwards of six seven hundred dollars fat well the pieces we got yes yes more
addicted we we went 13 at Salvation Army on Saturday morning and then Sunday
morning we wants a goodwill because there was just too many sales to keep
track of and that's good and we have to use that I'm not just gonna let a coupon
expired yeah man so first up we have my outfit my Nancy Drew right so I stop
this with a fashion Nova is this called a Julie yeah yeah as a fashion tokaji
lay which is just like a sleeveless jacket some gorgeous matching corduroy
pants and of course my black turtleneck this is like my go-to in the fall I
really like this look because it's a business look but it can also be going
out look like if you're going out for drinks or something after you add a good
statement necklace and you're just you know very chic very professional there
is amazing this is professional but no no is good
turtleman no this is 13 oh this is from two months ago sexy okay because Macy's
has termites just like that with the same ruching on the sleeves I have two
of them that means I got a good good deal all right thinking about Inc and
they're like a so this is like Oh bleep yeah that's
that's amazing that's what makes you soft friend okay deal
yes I did not spend I did not know it did okay that's okay we've made up for
it with or without shopping recently now that's one thing I do find that do I
will spend money on quality basic piece absolutely so that I can admit to Mac
yeah are you kind of blend in with some of your thrifted fine yeah no with some
of your better quality higher-end pieces and I'm finding that even with rifting
you still fun higher and he says yeah you don't end up paying higher end
prices you could be picky when it comes to thrifting I told you guys before I'm
really trying to get away from polyester when you haven't learned from my mom
it's not a breathable fabric it's not good for the earth it's just not a good
fabric in general the amount of 100% cotton 100% wool quality pieces that
we've been able to find through thrifting it's impressive and in Florida
cotton is your friend even silk is better than polyester
I mean some people would think that silk doesn't breathe but it grew a lot more
than polyester does not I mean I don't want to knock anybody because sometimes
you just find that really great piece and usually you just have to happen yeah
but with the understanding that there's one me some discomfort in the heat of
the day I'm a little toasty and we live in Florida so we always have to think of
that always so what else did we finished how
do we finish our book I would pair this with a simple black ankle bootie to tuck
under the corduroys I think that would just be a really simple finish to the
look if I really want to dress it up I would tuck the corner boys into a thigh
high boot and I am just really give it like edge okay a good like stiletto
thigh high boot gonna be fun you train that looks it tell us about your
fabulous finds so we're talking about I'm laying the Michael Kors top we got
it for four bucks at Goodwill it's got a balloon sleeve I love the muted blended
colors and one of these kind of like a animal print
yeah it kind of gets like a river like a snakeskin yeah like a contrary
like an abstract and I paired it with another thin piece that we got from one
of our sacks sales I want to say this skirt it's a vintage piece from the 90s
but I can't remember off the top of my head but as soon as I saw that I was
like if any of you from New York there was a store called Bradley back in the
day and he would go and rack up you know clothing and they had laid away and I
remember some of these pieces in this particular purple tweed and they also
had like it was the weirdest color turquoise but it was a similar tweet
fabric and it is beautifully lined it's silk lining it's 1/8 and I remember the
piece and might have been the pieces because it would have a matching jacket
or matching hug life similar best like this and her piece maybe 20 bucks but
they they kind of dealt with it was kind of like the precursor to Walmart back in
the day you can get everything in Bradley's your housewares your clothing
and they had layaway so this is when I saw this skirt that immediately reminded
me of that particular store for those of you who are back in the day remember it
Rockland County Bradley's yes so this is my look and I paired it with my booties
because they're easier to keep on my Michael Kors booties they kind of work
with just about everything they go with everything so that's what I did
that's our looks that's how it looks for the day and we're gonna go back yeah
we're gonna go back we have way more to show you guys and we're gonna go back to
the sack sales we're gonna go back to Goodwill we have so much of our style to
share with you and so many of our tips my mom is just a wealth of knowledge
I tell you guys so much all time my mom says my mom says that whatever my mom
