THURSDAY'S THRIFT....rayex vintage sunglasses




A classic striped shirt for 2 bucks at the church thrift....
 

I nearly fainted when I discovered these Vintage Rayex sunglasses for $5.00 bucks.  The lady that sold them to me was about 70 years young.  She said that she wore this brand when she was young.  She new she was giving me a deal.  She is the one who kisses and hugs me on the way in and out of the thrift...thank you Theresa!!!

I looked them up on ebay and found one other pair with a starting bid of 10.00 bucks but I don't know what they ended up selling for.  I also picked up this polka dot blouse for 2 bucks...another classic.

I had to have this neck tie flower that wears like a choker...fits great and was 1 dollar.


Silly, I know, but I had to have the hand painted /glittered face mask pin and the fan earrings too...


I have to figure out where to put this iron on owl that I snagged for a buck.  Kathy if you are reading this, NO YOU CAN'T HAVE IT!! 


I had to splurge for my Senior peeps at work...what better than a memory match game for 10cents. 
Linking up to THURSDAY'S ARE FOR THRIFTERS...check it out at Spunky Chateau!!!  Thanks for hosting!!!

you found some great pieces! i haven't thrifted as much as i'd like to around sydney because they up the price of items depending on the brand! i do shop at my local saturday market where the vendors have already gone through the thrift stores, which means there's a markup, oh well. i can't wait to see you in your black and white vintage gear!

I love iron on patches. They are so useful in the rehabilitation of vintage clothing. Owls are so hot right now - great find.

Hey, nice rear shot on the link up..
Good luck with your garage sale....I know how much work they are.
We are at the lake, getting ready to make risotto and go to a rib cook off. How awesome is that? I don't even eat ribs............
Have a good weekend!
