Round 2: Thredup

Issues.
I've said it before, but I have serious shopping issues!
Once I get something in my head, I obsess over it and that is what this 2015 clothes challenge has done to me. I'm pretty sure its not healthy, but my closet has drastically changed a lot in the last 2 months for the better.

After I received my clothes from Thredup and realized that (although previously owned) they were in perfect condition, I was hooked. I stalked the website daily and reordered within 2 weeks. Here is more of my finds:


I love the brand Democracy and these leggings didn't let me down. They are a khaki color with a pearl sheen. Perfect for spring!




I really planned on sending this one back since I was splurging on it. I don't normally pay $57.00 for a USED sweater, but I am in such dire need of tunics that I just wanted to try it on. No harm. First of all -- I don't know what their "tiny flaw" is b/c it is in amazing condition. It is wool so it is warm (we know how cold I get) and it fits perfectly. I kept it. I love it!

Ever since I sent that long cardigan back to Stitch Fix last month -- I have regretted it. When I saw this baby, I got excited. It is very similar in that it is a duster (long) cardigan with a cocoon back. Pumped.

I love the simplicity in this. It fits perfectly. It did have a small flaw. It looked like a little place with makeup; however, a tide pen and 2 seconds later and walah- brand new again :)

I have been wanting a shirt like this for some time. It is really comfortable and made out of a light sweater material (which is good) in that it will keep me warm! I also like that I can actually wrap it differently and wear it as a cardigan for a totally different look. 2 pieces in 1!









This site also allows you to send in your clothes to gain store credit. So, I sent in all those 20 pants I purged along with other items. They will not accept them if they are not brand name and like-new, but I figured I should get something out of it! Crossing my fingers it is enough to cover my next shopping spree! :)

For now, I am not allowed to look at Thredup again for a long time. I really, really, really love this site. It is addictive and I am making myself walk away for a while!

More bad news? My next Stitch Fix comes NEXT WEEK. I am seriously starting to worry about my marital status. I recognize I have been spending a lot. I am 100% more content with my wardrobe than I was in January. I am going to evaluate this next Stitch and then probably chill out for a bit :)
See you with next week's report!
