When’s the last time you went thrifting? If I’m being honest, I haven’t (really) been thrifting in months. I know… Crazy, right? Well, that changed a few days ago. I had to urge to add some new pieces to my wardrobe for the fall, so I figured a quick thrift store trip wouldn’t hurt. 7 items and a few dollars later, I walked out with this sheer animal print thrifted blouse and a few other items. Mission accomplished!

Blouse: Thrifted, Value Village // Flats: Aldo Brand, Nordstrom Rack ( Another Option ) // Necklace: oNecklace
Although this thrifted blouse is sheer, it’s still great for fall styling. It’s the perfect layering piece, which is why I decided to layer it over a black bodysuit. I’m all about comfort and style whenever I’m figuring out what to wear, but especially when it comes to work-wear. I’m often running errands or out and about during the day so I like to look presentable and chic, without compromising my comfort.
When styling a piece like this thrifted blouse, it’s important to remember to wear something fitted at the bottom. Because the blouse is flowy and over-sized, a fitted or slim pair of pants/denim helps balance out the look. Staying in the neutral family, I topped off the outfit with a pair of nude flats and one of my favorite purses. The subtle gold tones in the purse bring out my gold necklace and studs.
Denim: JCP ( Another Option )
So tell me, do you like my thrifted blouse? When’s the last time you visited your local thrift store? Let me know!
Thanks for reading and commenting! Until next time, be blessed and stay safe…XO!

Thanks, Rachelle!
I haven’t been thrifting as much either, but I have been indulging in some poshmark and ebay shopping as of late.
It still doesn’t beat the thrill of that glorious thrift store find for a few dollars.

Ah, yes. I have been loving eBay as of late. Especially for cute accessories and jewelry. Can’t wait to thrift again though, lol!
I never thrifted in my life, but seeing what some of you ladies are finding I think I should start. 🙂
