Thrift Shop Style:10 Bright and Breezy Summer Dresses for Less

This gorgeous, strapless derss is only $5.99 and perfect for any summer gathering.


As the days grow longer and the weather gets warmer, we “thrift shop fashionistas” know that it’s time to score stylish summer finds at our favorite, second-hand haunts.
My successful thrift shop hauls prove time and time again that looking good does not have to cost you an arm and a leg.
I discovered this selection of pretty, sleeveless, summer frocks at Salvation Army and St. Francis Thrift Shops on the Upper West Side in Manhattan, at prices you won’t believe!
Now, veteran thrift-shoppers know that scoring great deals can require hard work.
It takes planning, scanning, editing, organization and most of all, resolve.
Make a pact with yourself to only buy what you really need or really like–for the  maximum price that you are willing to pay. No more!
