Winter Wardrobe (Thrift Haul)

At the end of last season I cleared out all my sweaters that were getting worn, picked, etc.
When I unpacked my winter clothes I literally had three left, all of which are 3/4 sleeves.
I knew I wanted easy to wear and items I could wear at home without fear of damaging them.
Unless I need a special piece the thrift store is my go to place.
I spent just under $57 — including an impulse purchase of a pair of shoes. 


These were my “wild card” pieces.
The shoes are a European brand, appear to be totally new (no scuffs, no anything on soles)

 and I paid $3.39 for them.
The two tops on the right are new with tags.
The green sweater (mock turtle neck) got the top cut off in the photo.

Top left — I went three sizes too large.  The plan is to wear this long and baggy with leggings and knee high boots.
The black and white striped is a thinner sweater and perfect for indoor wear.
The cardigan will go with almost everything in my closet.
The sweater vest is an easy layering piece to go over any of my turtleneck tops or long sleeved t-shirts.

These are my snuggly sweaters.
The first two of the gray are longer tunic length and I’ll layer them over long sleeves. 
The last gray and the red/multi are bulkier sweaters that are quite cozy.  
I love the feel of both of them.

Sorry about the upside down receipt.

    1. Thanks. I feel like I am set and everything goes with what I have on hand. (I keep black and gray as my neutral colors so it works well.)

Due to a large volume of spamming I’ve had to undo the “anyone” can comment feature. Hoping this lets all of us not have to wade through the hoopla.
