Thrift shopping on Thrift Shop Day!

Today (August 17th, 2011) was Thrift Shop Day, and boy did I go thrift shopping!

I had made an appointement with my good friend Crowli to do a tour of the thrift shops to see if we could find a treasure or two, so we grabbed our wallets, our flats and some not-so-warm clothing (since it was 40 C outside today!). I was especially looking forward to see if I could find something new for our new apartment that we moved into 2 weeks ago. As it turned out I ended up with more stuff for me than for the apartment.

... typical...

So here's what I ended up with:


  • 4 square silk/polyester scarves for 10,- a piece (1.8 USD or 1.1 BGP) from "Gjenbruk", a small thrift shop in the middle of down-town Tromsø.
  • a pair of lovely wedge-heeled, rounded toe, shoes for 59,- (10.9 or 6.5 BGP) from "Fretex", the salvation army's second hand store.


Also, not from any thrift shop:

2 tops that i fell for, one red & black and one orange & black
6 pairs of socks
6 pairs of stockings, including one pair of back-seem stockings and one pair of silk stockings.

Pictures will ensue, but the lighting is just too dark now for a decent picture.

Next project is to actually find something for the apartment.


Wish me luck!
