20s Style Thrifting

A quick pop in our local American Cancer Society Thrift Store, usually proves fruitless. Their prices are usually exceedingly high, and its all late 90s "Sag Harbor" clothing. Today though, I stumbled upon these little gems and could not resist. And for a small price of $3.00 why would I?
These lovely oxfords are modern-made by Bronx, and are so darn comfy! I love that they have the perfect 20s-30s heel, and that they are white! I am torn on what to do with them. I like them bit they do not match any dress I own, I could sell them to someone who would love them, I could give them to Solanah as they seem to be her style and size. Decisions, decisions...

They're gorgeous! I'd say keep (or give to Solanah! ;), 'cause I'm sure you'll find some outfit going forward that they'll go with. White shoes are always good to have anyway... ;)

Ohmygosh, I will totally trade you my green suit for those.

My 40s style black t-straps are that same brand, and I have had them for years, they are so comfortable but I never find the brand anywhere!

Sell! You are braver than I if you dare wear white shoes in the mud pit of the PNW. Very cute though.

Or... you could decorate them with colorful shoe clips so the white is merely a background.

Keep them! Shoes are the hardest part of an outfit to find...finding a dress to suit them would be no trouble!

Do you ever give tips on how to thrift? I'd love to learn some of your trade secrets. ;-)

Treacle - I just thrift so often I find things. Many times I come home empty handed and sad... You just have to look up every thrift store in the book, and hit them all.. you will begin to see which ones are the best.

WOW! I love those shoes!!!!!!!!! I never find good vintage deals in clothing. I see a lot of furniture that is awesome......if only I had a bigger house to buy it all.

So beautiful! Keep them until you have a dress that suits them. Love, Betsy.
