It's almost fall! Yay! The heat has finally broken and fall PRs (and cozier thrifting finds) are just around the corner.
Terez leggings are awesome and the price point definitely reflects the quality. The printing on it goes through the fabric so when it is stretched out, the pattern remains and there isn't any sheerness to it.
Terez Leggings: Originally $82, paid $7
Ibex recently went out of business, but they were known for their wool base layers. (Fun fact: Last year, Oiselle actually bought the fabric Ibex was supposed to use before they closed. They ended up making a bunch of funnel neck base layers with the fabric that were a big hit.) Saw this in my size, grabbed it, and didn't let go.
Ibex Woolies Half-Zip: Originally $95, paid $5
I know this pattern is a little out of season (there are little flowers just below the hot pink strip of fabric) but who cares? I'm probably not wearing these out of the house anyways.
Lululemon Groove Pants: Originally $98, paid $3.50
So I discovered the trekkie line of pants from Athleta after they were discontinued. (Naturally.) The fabric is a little heavier, but more durable than some of the others they've put out. The inseam is perfect for me, and I always feel like joggers make life for me easier because I don't have to worry about hemming them later. (The elastic at the bottom makes it sit right at your ankle no matter your height.)
Athleta Trekkie Joggers: Originally $89, paid $5
Brooks makes some amazing athletic wear. (Their greenlight capris are awesome!) These I was never really quite sure about, so I was happy to grab these at a lower price point and still in great condition!
Brooks Streaker Capris: Originally $85, paid $5
ICYMI: My big summer trip was going to Italy with my family. One of the things I really wanted to do was go thrift shopping in Rome because I had never done it in a foreign country before. While we were out I found Fendi pants for 29 euro (about $32). However the fit was so weird (pleats right at the hip which meant they awkwardly billowed out) so they went back on the rack.
In the same, store I found this skirt. No indication of the designer, so I have no information about it other than it was made in Italy and how to clean it. (Washable wool? YES, PLEASE!) I have no idea how much this originally cost, but I paid 3.15 euro (about $3.50) for a beautiful wool skirt that is tea length and fit like a dream. Sometimes I don't find out any information about an item I find while thrifting. I'll see the company info all over it, but it's simply too old to still be out on the internet (yes, this happens. In order to save space on their servers, companies basically get rid of older pages of discontinued items.) Considering the item's pedigree from the information I could get directly from the tag, I was totally fine with it.
Wool pleated skirt: Originally $?, paid $3.50
