15 Aug 2024 Brocante

No luck at the brocante today. The clothes were sparse and too modern. I haven't been thrifting that long but I still remember when there was much less Shein everywhere. Now with easy online shopping at less than good retailers all the modern fast fashion is bunched up with actual old-school items from the 2000s. It's a shame. I saw a real pretty prom-like or night out dress but wasn't sure about the colour or the size so I didn't get it. 

I am on the look out for knee-high boots, ballet flats with straps, and a cool handbag. Sadly, everything was either too small or not my taste. I feel like I may have to buy these first hand because I'd rather be certain about the fit and quality and also some brands do have a few items in my taste.

I did find myself a very cute little box-bag, it looks tropical and is probably meant for toiletries. I'm not sure what I'm gonna use it for yet, maybe my markers? I am one step closer to my surf crush dream though. Poser! 


I also found my sister a small Hello Kitty figure. She basically gave me an order to buy anything Hello Kitty or My Littlest Petshop related, so I am doing my duty. Roger roger.

Maybe I am getting a fatigue from so many brocantes but this one really burnt me out even though it wasn't super big. I guess I'm excited for my little recyclerie to finally open up after the summer.
