Yay September! Bring on the better weather and more thrifting finds!
These tanks are kind of awesome—super comfy, great for sleeping in but a little pricey. I would definitely pay $5 for a semi-fancy, comfy sleep tank.
Lululemon Power Y Tank in Heathered Slate: Originally $52, paid $5
I don’t typically go for pastels, but the fun color combination definitely caught my eye.
Lululemon Wild Tank in Heathered Pretty Purple/Bleacher Stripe White Iris Flower/Grapefruit: Originally $64, paid $7
I like how this tank is simple, but fun since you can read it when you look in the mirror.
Lululemon All Tied Up Tank: Originally $48, paid $4
So a few years ago Athleta had a program where you got to try out new pieces of clothing and in exchange you give them feedback and then you got to keep the clothes afterwards. I only got into one trial group, but I got to try out the precursor to these capris!
The ones that went into mass production are on the left, the ones I tried out are on the right. The big differences are the side pocket (it’s not really big enough for much.)
The mass produced version has a pocket in the waistband instead.
The mass produced version also didn’t have reflective strips at the bottom hem, which may have been a way to keep the seam from fraying in addition to the extra reflectivity. It seems strange that they only had the reflective strips at the waist where it would likely to be covered up by a shirt, but whatever. Still cool to find the mass produced version after trying out one of the earlier versions!
Athleta Sonic Reflective Capri Pant: Originally $79, paid $7
My sister introduced me to Liberty of London when we were in high school. We both loved the floral patterns and vintage pieces were somewhat easy to find in thrift stores. I was super jealous when she found a beautiful Liberty of London dress that she wore to one of the big dances. (I want to say it was a prom, but anyways.) Then when we went to London a few years ago, it was one of our favorite shops to check out and we both stocked up on fabric. It ended up being the most expensive shopping out of the whole trip, but so worth it! So yeah when I found this shirt AND it fit, I had to get it!
Such a beautiful pattern broken up by the occasional bird!
Liberty Catesby Floral Perfect Shirt: Originally $88, paid $5

So those are my finds for the month. Anyone have any good thrifting finds this month? Any good races coming up? I have the SeaWheeze Virtual 10k coming up and I’m kind of excited for it. Space is still available and you can sign up for just $5 on Strava! The proceeds go towards three different charities—Back on my Feet, Black Men Run and Girls on the Run!
