Better than flip-flops???

I would normally feel pretty silly about dedicating an entire blog post to a used pair of shoes...but these are worth it!!  lol

I would like to introduce you to the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn!!  

I picked them up at the Goodwill this week, because I thought they were cute.  

I tried them on in the store briefly but had no idea what I was getting in to (literally). 

These things are better than flip-flops!  Bold statement, I know...but I am convinced it is true!

They are so soft and ridiculously comfortable!!

The brand on them is "Born".  Never heard of it, so I turned to my good friend Google.
Turns out, they are pretty high-end, genuine fine leather shoes.  

I browsed their website and found a pair similar to mine...$135.  Holy cow!  

I paid $3.50 for mine and they look like they have barely been worn.  SCORE!!

It does appear that they are men's or boy's, rather than women's.  

Psshh...whatever!  I'm wearing these babies til they fall apart!

I'm linking up with Meagan at the Spunky Chateau today for "Thursdays are for Thrifters".
Go check out everyone else's thrifty finds.

What I thrifted on Tuesday...on Thursday.

As I mentioned last week, I need to start building my Fall/Winter wardrobe.  Since what I wear now in comparison to what I wore last year is drastically different, I am basically starting from scratch.  I have a closet full of summery shirts, skirts and dresses.  Some of them can be transformed into cooler weather wear, but most will need to be tucked away until Spring/Summer come around.  

Being the cheap/frugal gal that I am, of course I don't want to spend a lot while trying to compile this new wardrobe.  I have been allowing myself to spend $10-20 a month on myself for clothes over the last few months and that has worked out well.  I might have to increase that a little bit for awhile until I have what I need for the upcoming Season changes.

Tuesday, I stopped at Goodwill on my lunch break.  I scored majorly!!  I got 4 Fall-ish skirts and 4 belts...grand total of $21.  Yay!!
