Thrifty Shoes
I wear my shoes until they have no more umph left in them, which is typically for years. This past fall is when my fall/spring shoes finally expired. Over the winter I’ve just worn my boots so haven’t really needed to find new ones, though somewhere in the distance I can see spring popping up. I’m not a huge fan of shoe shopping, I can never seem to find exactly what I want/need for the kind of price I’m looking for. I need practical shoes, but let’s face it, I want them to look cute too. My mom and I went to the thrift store on Saturday and I was pretty happy to see these. They were all in my size, practically brand new, and the perfect price. So for a mere $13 bucks, I am 3 pairs of shoes richer.
These are my favourites. I just love them. On a side note, do you remember my granny square laptop cover? I love the cover, but I just haven’t grown to love the colours, so I have decided to sell it. It holds a 13" MacBook perfectly (not really sure about PC laptop sizing, sorry) and I’m selling it for $35 plus actual shipping. If anyone is interested, please e-mail me at jennifer@thegirlbythesea.com. Hope everybody had a great weekend. We’ve got a busy week here, and my brother is coming into town at the end of the week, yeah!
How lucky are you?!
They are such lovely looking shoes – what a find!

WOW – What a great find!!!
Gorgeous shoes, what a great find. I especially like the red ones too.
I’m so jealous of your finds! you’re so lucky! I was actually shoes shopping this morning but there was nothing I liked and i like shoes/boots to be really comfy…I so need a new pair, my old pair got wrecked when I stood too near the sea, got covered by a massive wave, got soaking wet and wrecked my shoes with the salt water. That happened about a year ago and i still haven’t replaced them…………. *ahem* I have a cute pair of balet pump style leather shoes but they aren’t great for the middle of winter! LOL My toes get kind of cold.
Cute shoes! Shame about the laptop cover. Hope you find a good home for it!
Omg
thats totally reminded me of my dream last night, that was about
some shoes I had just like yours but in black!
How spooky!
Great shoes all the same!

Just the sort of shoe that I like too!The red ones are fab, you are sure to have a good day wearing such cheerful shoes.x
Seriously? You have the best thrift store luck. Those shoes are marvelous. I’m jealous every time I read your thrift store posts.
I love that laptop cover (if you fancy doing a tutorial on it??)
Great finds! I’m jealous – I am always looking but never finding the perfect find at the thrift shops. The shoes are just fabulous and to get 3 pair in your size is incredible lucky I think. Must have been meant to be!
“GOLD” you have struck “GOLD”…what a magic find and they look so GOOD!!! Lucky Duck x
ah yes, spring will come. I love those red shoes, too!
That thrift store – wow! I would buy your cover but I don’t have a laptop – I’ll mention it to a few people though! Have a great weekend and don’t forget some time just for you 😀
Love the red ones! You find the best bargains.
Your little guy sure looks cute with his braces on. Glad it’s been a good experience so far.
$13 for 3 pairs of shoes? That is unheard of! Good for you!
Oh, and I just re-read your Food posts. The photos are so lovely and inspiring. I needed that today. Thank you.
Oh wow! We have exactly the same taste in shoes. I adore comfy Mary Janes. K x
Beautiful shoes. What brand are the red ones? I MUST find them!!
That’s a creative answer to a dicfifult question
