I Love Fall

Here's some things I love about fall!!!



Of course I loves these candles from Bath & Body Works. Leaves, Cinnamon Nut Bread, and Hot Buttered Rum are among my favorite scents. I also love Farmstand Apples!


And they gave me a coupon...woohoo.


I also love flannel shirts. These are my faves. The top is from Vans, the middle Goodwill (Sean White) and the bottom is from Fox Racing;-)



And these are my top nine fall nail polishes. Clockwise from top. OPI How's it Snowing, Sonia Kashuk Chocaholic, Savvy Outrageous Orange, China Glaze Trendsetter, Nicole OPI I'm a Belieber, NYC Sidewalker, Zoya Dree, China Glaze First Mate, and Nina Love Struck.

Thrifty Thursdays

I'm sure you all know by now, that I love thrift stores...and it really doesn't help that I work at one. LOL. Oh well, you win some and loose some, right? Hehe. Anyway, I may be biased, but I think ours has the best prices in town. You can check out the fb page here

And if you're in the PDX area, it's on 31st & Sandy BLVD. And, when you buy from Teen Challenge Thrift Store, you are helping put some great young men through a Christian program to help them get off drugs and alcohol. So, it a win-win! 



I have an obsession with jars lately, The jar with the cork, I actually bout at an estate sale for $1.50, the rest I got at TC for $.99 each.



I also picked up this great, really old looking coach pin for $1.99


And this random fox tail for $1.99...which I don't know what I'm going to do with yet. Haha.


I also got this great heat box thing, that has great velvet lining for $.99. I think it's supposed to be for a ring maybe...not that I plan on proposing to anyone in the near or distant future, but it's cute.


I picked up this napkin for $.59 Again, no plans for it, but I liked all this cool gold and gray flowers.


I also got this wad of necklaces for $2.99. You can't see it from this picture, but I really wanted the wishbone charm that's on it.


Here's a strip of lace ($.59), and a pillow case ($.99). I have no plans for the lace yet, but I'm going to try to turn the pillowcase into a scarf. I've really been wanting a leopard print scarf...and what better way!


I also got this OPI nail polish. I forgot the color. But I got it for $1.99. It's a great bright reddish orange!
