I have a love/hate relationship with thrift store shopping. On one hand, I absolutely love finding unique items on the cheap. On the other hand, I have terrible dust and mold allergies which always seem to flare up just as I’m about to pounce on a bargain. I was literally in tears and sneezing all over the fitting room while trying on a gorgeous $20 Tracy Reese dress… Oh the things I do for a bargain!
It took longer than usual to get through this photo shoot because I kept having to blow my nose in between takes. You’d really think I’d learn to pop a Benadryl before these excursions already! Luckily, I remembered my trusty neti pot that night, and all was well by the next morning.
