ASOS gold chunky heels |
Happy 4th of July-a public holiday, I actually look forward to here in the States. Around this time of the year, when the vibe of summer is at momentum, I go to my favorite thrift store (Value Village) to donate old items. After donating items, a discount code is given to you at Value Village, which is located at the outskirts of the DC area. For me, a journey I’ld have had to make a mental note of, weeks prior, and this was no different.
The thrift store also provides a discount of up to 50% during holidays like this one, and I never miss out on it.

Most times when I go thrift shopping, I proceed with a theme (season, color pattern, trend) in mind that justifies the little coins I’m parting with.
