uhhh I am no good.

Clearly I am no good at doing this!? I wish i could be better, but I wish I felt like I had more time. I am always at school, at my internships, eating chipolte, shopping, going out with all my cool friends... Yea..right... no time at all?.

I feel like I may have talked about my Dad, saying you need to be a producer Madelyn, not a consumer. Well ya no what Dad, I like to shop. And I like to eat. And I like to drink so like uhhh shut up.  I will be a consumer.
But then, it came time for my last all school formal, and I am so sick of Urban Outfitters, being that the only decent non-thrift store in town. And even my beloved site Nasty Gal has been letting me down.
The only thing I could think of was THRIFTING.

So here is what I did. Well I should not say me. My cool boyfriend was in on it too.

We went to all the thrift and consignment shops in South Bend, trying to produce the best outfit. I had one proud and happy Dad...(asking for money for dresses is not one thing he likes).

In our journey, we found a super cool Jacket for my boyfriend, and nothing super cool for me, for this particular day. a few t-shirts and crew-necks never hurt anyone.
So I had to look else where.
Where I found my best options was at my house! My 32 year old sisters winter formal dress.

I thrifted in my own house and found all the dresses I needed for the rest of the year's formals and could not be happier or...cooler.

here are the photos of our cool producing outfits.
