This week my sister, Hillary, returned to the United States from Australia! We only got to spend a short time together before she had to drive up to Berkeley to move into a co-op there for her final semester of college. She’ll be moving back to Australia soon after finishing school, so I’ll have to find a way to visit Berkeley at least once or twice in the next few months.
Hillary and I went thrift shopping yesterday, and I found these unopened Hue tights at Quality Thrift. They had a whole bunch of new Hue tights there for $2.99, so I picked up these along with a polka dot pair and a glen plaid pair. Yes, I finally found unworn tights at the thrift store! I also bought this lace top at QT.
And most important, this necklace is a gift from Hillary that she made from a shell she found on a beach in Australia. She said it reminded her of our favorite Disney movie, The Little Mermaid. Awwwww =)
That necklace is gorgeous! Ahhhhhh-aaaaaaaaahhhhhh-- beautiful Ariel voice. She should open a Etsy shop too!
ReplyDeleteI love the lace top and I miss you lots already!!! xoxo
