A Day At The: Chelsea flee market

My mom and I have been on a repurposing kick, so we have been flea market hopping on Sundays mornings. So many DIY projects and so little time! This sunday I ended up buying a gold 1920's belt for a fine $10 and a vintage Ralph Lauren jacket which was alittle pricey for $35, totally worth it. As you know I love digging through odd stuff and this market was filled with freaky wonders!! I bought a letter press box for $16 to be used as jewelry storage/organization, it's prefect for displaying all my rings and pendants! Next Sunday I'm going to another flea market and ill post more treasures then! - x0xO Phoebe

heres some strange and awesome things i saw and snapped pictures

Thrift Haul

  These are items I purchased at my local Goodwill over the past month. Thrifting takes patients and a good eye.  If a texture or color pops out, pick it up. I always look at an item as what it could become. Before i hit it with my scissors that corky cat muscle tank was an old oversized man's shirt. Try on everything, i swear by this, vintage items can have irregular sizing and items that aren't amazing on the hanger can surprise you. If you are petite or looking for crop tops check out the kid's section (boys and girls) thats where i found the cropped gray and blue baseball shirt. -x0x0x Phoebe
