Thrift=Love



So as so many of us know ..... thrifting can be like a drug!  From the time that I was a little girl my mum would take me to Vallue Village to peruse isle after isle of possibilities.  The possibility of finding the next ultimate treasure!  You know what I mean ladies, it becomes such a crazy addiction!  Thankfully opening Young Janes gave me the perfect excuse .... I get to thrift to my hearts content!  

What's the most exciting thing you've ever found thrifting??

Nothing will ever beat my first trip to the Salvation Army near Carling and Kirkwood. That day I picked up the following:
1. A vintage Christian Dior sky blue, velour zip-up
2. A royal purple Ralph Lauren, v-neck wool sweater
3. An adorable,little old school Adidas zip up in banana yellow
4. A super fitted, full length tan suede jacket with a fur trim and big tortoise buttons.
Total cost: $30

Oh - and an amazing pair of bright blue, sateen high heels from YJ :)
