Lazy Day, Spontaneous Thrifting


 
We saw penguins today! The local aquarium got four penquins for the summer months and when Boyfriend got called out of work today because of all the rain, we decided to finally take a trip to the aquarium since neither of us had been in a while.

We had a lot of fun, and before we went to the aquarium, we ate lunch and I had the most amazing lemonade! I'm not a huge fan of lemonade usually, but it had mango flavor in it and I love anything mango. Looks like sunshine in a cup!



 
One of the best parts of the day was when we went to our local Salvation Army (my favorite thrift store around here). I found some really great stuff today! I surprisingly wasn't looking for clothes, like I am 95% of the time. I was actually looking for candle holders or tea sets. I want candle holders because one of my best friends always makes me jealous with her cute candleholders, so I was inspired to find some of my own. I made out pretty well. I found a wooden candle holder for .75,three flower candle holders for .39 each, a bunch of candles for .25 each, a bell that would go perfectly in my mother's china hutch for .49, and my most exciting find, a teapot! It was only $2.99.






 
I've always wanted to have a tea party for some reason, so I'm going to start collecting tea cups, pots, saucers, spoons, anything. Lol.

 
Outfit of the day:

Dress: Wal*Mart, old, $12,
Vest: Old Navy, $30
