i love consignment sales! (& target.)



hey loves!

so, here's what i promised: the consignment sale goods! i also bought a few things with my mom in tuscaloosa, so i'll show you those as well.

most of the things were beauty products, though, so i think i'll list those off for you: a bath&body works back scrubber (in light blue & neon green! it's too cute) and bigelow lemon&pomegranate body scrub -- which smells AMAZING. i haven't tried it yet, so if you've ever used it, give me a review! :) i also got a free gift at b&bw, which was a full size lotion! they have a sale going on; if you spend $10, you get a signature scent product worth up to $12 -- for free! :D but i chose the orange sapphire scent, which is such a great summer scent. it goes quite well with clinique.happy.

then we went to ulta, which is one of my favorite stores. <3 bought the green smashbox primer for eliminating redness (this stuff is AMAZING) & yes to carrots gentle exfoliating cleanser. i've only used the yes to carrots twice, and so far it's incredible. it smells great & my skin is so very soft, not to mention the ingredients are natural. gotta love that.

but anyway, what are you here for? clothes! let's go~

from target: black lace tank & grey t-shirt with studded shoulders.



from target: these AMAZING shoes! they're HUGE! i feel so powerful wearing these. & they aren't heavy like they look. they're a beautiful color, and the flower accents make them great for spring&summer. and for $20? yes please. :)

on to CONSIGNMENT SALE!

i love knick-knacks. my grandmother does, too, so i must have picked this trait from her! this is just a little porcelain flower bouquet; it brings cheer to my writing desk.


these are actually boy's shorts -- they fit at my waist and they're wonderful! i can't wait to wear them. $1.50, too!


simple things: grey&white striped sweater & a grey henley. i know, i know, a sweater in june? are you mad? when things cost $1, season does not matter. xD


first dress: it's very simple, but i'm going to chop it off to mid-thigh (it hits my knees). it gives off a very 'shirley manson from 1995' vibe. second dress: this dress looks SO much better on a body than on a hanger! it's fitted throughout the torso, but in a corset way. chic frills (the consignment shop) has dollar racks some days, & i found this on a dollar rack!


how darling is this owl pendant? i actually got this from my grandma; she has the best jewelry! i've been looking for a bird necklace, so this just delighted me!

and... SHOPPING OUTFIT.


grey v-neck from old navy, army green shorts & tribal print purse from charlotte russe. the yellow sandals are from a cute boutique called city market in valdosta, georgia. i've had these for a year and a half; they are so worn out, but i can't stop wearing them!


wooden bangle from consignment shop, pearl bracelet was a gift, gold bracelet was a gift from my dad from greece.


i bought those black floral dangling earrings from chic frills tuesday as well. they could possibly become my new favorite earrings.

with love,
rachel. <3
