Thrifting is soooo Bae and let me tell you why. You probably have
somewhat of a hint as to why If you've been following me for a while. If
you're new here you should know that I may or may not be a thrifting addict.
(Ackward silence) Ok I am. Now that that's clear lets get into why me and
thrifting will always be boo thangs lol. So a few months back I took a
quick trip to Toronto. While there I mozied on down to Kensington Market, an
area in Toronto known for its specialty stores and diverse food choices. What it also happens to include are some of thee
most amazing thrift and vintage stores.
So you know your girl was in heaven. As I started to pop in and out of
each thrift shop I noticed a theme.
Almost every shop had an amazing selection of coats and capes. Now folks you should know I’ve been wanting
to buy a cape for the longest time but nothing
really was saying ‘you should buy me’ until I saw it. Yes it! I walked into
Exile, Kensingtons Costume and Vintage Mecca expecting to browse and walk away
with nothing much more than a look here and
a comment or two of ‘that’s cute’ there but most importantly empty handed. That
all changed as I walked to the back of the store. In the back on a mannequin sat the cape of my
dreams. There was an instant
confirmation that this cape was coming home with me. It was perfect. It was my
favorite color, it provided just the drama I wanted in a cape and most
importantly it was timeless. I knew that
I could never find a cape with this kind of quality and this price point at any
other store. And that folks is why thrifting
will always be my Bae. When was the last
time you went thrifting? Did you find anything as perfect as my cape?
