The fairy dress is such a find. It’s amazing. Such a score.

[@maranda7426]

Recently I’ve been wearing my pretty dresses just because. Wore one to target this week. Life is too short to not wear pretty dresses we love

[@laurencello]

the pure, genuine happiness in Alexa's voice when you showed her the cat t-shirt. So wholesome, too cute

[@alexasunshine83]

I love that we both have a different pov in our videos of when you brought me the cat tee 😂😭

[@CarrieDayton]

it simply needed to be documented 😂

[@laydeevixen]

The $38 shirt is from George at Asda, basically a UK supermarket brand. That is hilariously overpriced 😂

[@jessica07712]

Omg LOL

[@thegingerwitch322]

@@jessica07712 It is even funnier than that as Asda is owned by Walmart!

[@jessica07712]

@@thegingerwitch322 the goodwill by me does this kind of stuff all the time! They ask over retail for old navy and target dresses but I found legit designer items for like 10 dollars….. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@christinerewell9954]

​@@thegingerwitch322not any more it's not, it's been bought out a few years ago by 2 asian brothers who own a chain of garages in the UK. I've worked there for 29years.

[@ewesme]

I would guess mismarked since the other stuff they were saying was only $8

[@Katirue]

As a 6 year Costco employee i am appalled that you said those Kirkland jeans are from Walmart! We hate Walmart! Lol love you though ❤

[@SimplyCerisa]

Lol I was “offended” that she didn’t know they were from Costco! (J/k) I love Walmart but Kirkland/Costco has my heart. ❤

[@CarrieDayton]

LOL SORRY TO THE COSTCO COMMUNITY ❤

[@Katirue]

@@CarrieDayton love you Carrie!!!

[@debbie4555]

George is walmart!!

[@bethb4432]

I’m dying over that floofy dress! I was yelling at the screen when you tried it on in the fitting room telling you that you’d better get it! 😂

[@sleepypup]

AGREEEEED

[@kyeoptawerk93ah]

I legit gasped with how beautiful it looked on her!! Such a good find

[@oliviacurzi4124]

It's actually super easy to get jeans taken in at the waist! My seamstress does it for me all the time and it runs like 20-30$ but they'll fit you like a glove which is amazing!

[@lindsaystratis4192]

2nd this! Some of my favorite pants and jeans I've taken to Nordstroms to get taken in at the waist. Favorite jeans are men's Levi's that I got at Goodwill then tailored at Nordstrom.

[@shimmerbeautyXO]

@@lindsaystratis4192 ooo how much did it cost you to take in the waist of your jeans at nordstrom?

[@wendyWERKKZ]

I was really confused about that too because of the gap isn’t too big I can usually do it myself and I’m not good a sewing! But I also know alot of hip heavy people buy jeans and bottoms to fit their hips and then get them taken in at the waist

[@redvinesron]

Idk how others do it, but my mom is amazing at sewing and takes in stuff all the time, including jeans. She does kind of a V-shaped pleat in the back that hides behind the back pockets so there's little to no evidence. Some people may try to take jeans in from the side, but that doesn't always help with the butt gap issue, and then sometimes space is lost in the hips. V pleats all the way 😊

[@ashleyjordan1213]

As a crocheter and knitter whose mom quiilts I'm looking at the blanket section like...the number of HOURS of work housed in that one corner is crazy.

[@CarrieDayton]

i was blown away at how many there were!!! they were all so cute!

[@StephanieWillis777]

Kirland is Costco, I believe! Dad vibes chic, I love it.

[@janathompson1204]

Yep!

[@3Ottavia]

They’re super cheap, too

[@davin1504]

Here to add the Kirkland brand jeans are Costco jeans!! I’m sure you can find them in your size! ❤

[@MsCaitlinMarie]

Thank GOD you got that first black and white shirt! It looks SO GOOD and fun and I was scared you were going to leave it !

[@christineselig5440]

Kirkland is Costco, good finds on the dresses😊

I cannot even IMAGINE thrifting without sizes 😩😩 great work soldier

[@mommieswinetoo1647]

Love that orange tank u have on during the haul reveal back at ur house! Adorbs!🥰💖

[@ameenahatim]

That fairy dress is so pretty! It definitely looks like something Taylor Swift would wear with her signature red lips. You look so beautiful in it! 😍😍

[@jenunboxed512]

The fairy dress needs to go the Renaissance Faire, and/or to Disney .

[@jennywhiskey9327]

Soooo I graduated high school in the year 2000 so welcome to the “that just made me feel old “ club. 😂. Lovely haul!

[@karenprinz5987]

Yeah…I was thinking this too. I was halfway through college.

Found you through Alexa and I’m sooo glad! Love your style it’s the cutest and such good inspo!

That fairy dress is lovely!! These videos have inspired me to thrift shop!!

[@pandas4evr123197]

That fairy dress is EVERYTHING! So gorgeous!

[@HoofArted91]

Why didn’t you like the first white pants?! I thought they looked fab 😍

[@JulieNick28]

What good finds! Even the Old Navy dress is perfect.

[@rittj.1303]

You could take a look around and see if you have any small thrift stores connected to a local theater near you! I have one in my town that benefits a small community theater, and they sometime sell costumes or props they aren't going to use again. You can get some really unique stuff in specialty thrift stores like that! And we love when a shop goes to a good cause, like BTS in this vid ❤

[@hotpink609]

I was so excited you took that vintage dress home with you. It looked so cute on you❤❤❤

[@karmanjones8346]

I hope you are doing well! Thanks for the thrifting it lifts everyone’s spirits!

I am OBSESSSED with your Fairy DRESSSS ❤❤❤❤

The fairy dress would look sooo cute with a lil harness and combat boots 🤩

I have to have pants and jeans taken in at the waist all the time. It really isn’t a difficult alteration!

Your hair up in a sleek bun + this makeup is 🔥

[@knowdanielle]

I noticed the dress you were wearing! After watching your video about pajamas being clothes I RAN to buy it! And the matching little tops. The tops came damaged and I went to return them and she actually reordered them for me and they were like $3 😍 I got so lucky! Anyways you look stunning as always babes!

[@kathyjam2482]

I love the last two dresses on you, that last one is beautiful! ✌️❤️

[@lisastegall944]

The fairy dress is absolutely stunning on you, you are sooo precious. You are a ray of sunshine. Luved the black dress too. Luv & blessings from Texas ❤😊🌹

[@vanessanoll6653]

When your jeans are too big in the waist, you can cut into either side of the inside of the waistband and run a shoelace through to tighten them up from then inside! I’ve done it to vintage Levi’s and carharts and it works like a dream!

[@patriciacordischi7880]

the black dress with cowboy boots would be GORGEOUS!

[@HoofArted91]

You looked like a princess in the fairy dress 🥰

The black and white french shirts looks like something Lizzie Mcguire would wear in another "trying to be badass" episode like the nose ring one. You look great in yellow

[@tonyarush5871]

[@daisy-ss7cu]

I just today moved to another city from where I grew up and I know no one here. I was, and still kinda am so anxiuos about it but seeing that you uploaded just made my evening, I feel a little less home sick now

[@janessabeecroft1858]

So many cute dresses!! ❤ maybe if you could do a business casual video one of these days!! I would love that 😊

[@8infinite8possiblities8]

If you would have gotten the red and white striped shirt you could’ve been a bucket of popcorn 🍿 for Halloween lol

[@japjap_jule]

the black mens shirt with the white bra/tube top and the jeans looked sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good on you! thats a look im gonna recreate even though you didnt buy it. that looked fire. also when you styled the yellow vest you looked so so so pretty. you go girl.

[@Bejewelle88]

Both dresses look lovely!

[@BeadsLilliesNinjas]

The fairy dress would be perfect for a Shakespeare in the park event!

[@patricemelville7653]

Omg I had 2 shirts in the style of the y2k rose tank when I was in 7th grade (in 2001) and I never felt cooler 😂

[@riabouchinska]

Oooh the furniture and lamp sections are so good at this store! I would watch an entire video of that and/or the housewares section which also looks very promising… Idk if it’s where I live but there aren’t many good options for secondhand furniture, even the big chain thrift stores will have like a crusty old couch and a couple of plastic chairs and that’s pretty much it lol

[@ginadomenique]

I'm having an incredibly rough week emotionally so this comment may be more dramatic than the situation calls for, but I feel like if we don't get a photoshoot of the fairy dress with a brown belt and some cowboy boots at a pumpkin patch this fall my heart will shatter into a million pieces and I will cry myself to sleep.

[@joannefortier2662]

Carrie you look so beautiful in this video, loving your hair and makeup! Not that you don’t always look lovely, was just the first thing I noticed!🎉😘🇨🇦

[@justinafasano3731]

If you ever visit chicago I would love to see a thrifting video at village discount outlet!!!

[@hockeypoetgurl12]

That dress would be prefect to a fae look for a renfair!

[@jessdenoia]

Go to the ren faire wearing that fairy dress!!!!!! So magical and cute!

[@anishadas389]

I have followed you for a VERY long time. I have always wanted you to do a Lil grwm vid. Also, you have a fun personality so I think it will be super amazing. Just a thought.

The first black and white shirt I would wear with color bottoms like red or yellow.

[@reneecooper7381]

The fairies dress looks so beautiful on you put on some espadril sandals

I used to have that white Tahari dress!! It was my fave dress to wear to work in the summer

[@freyacolonello5240]

I need the fairy dress!

[@pattiupton1499]

Kirkland is a Costco brand.

[@ThriftingSquirrelUK]

Could easily wear that last dress casually with a denim jacket and a pair of Converse or similar. Lovely fit on you :)

[@tiffwhoa9888]

I was soooo happy you got the fairy dress and I loved all your other picks as well.

[@kailyngrace8512]

The fairy dress is from Amazon! My sister wore it to the Taylor Swift concert 🙂

[@GildedButterfly]

The first shirt needs a midi skirt and chunky flip flops -with chopsticks in space buns- lol

[@ainos02]

Yay, embracing inner child content

[@Sofi-rv5fp]

I live right next to this thrift store! I'm definitely going to check it out now

[@superly1090]

That tulle dress is absouteley beautiful and will look stunning with a leather biker jacket. I loved what you said to dress for your inner child. Great choice!

[@Lvmy2snssls]

Love the video, but every time you said Alexa's name in the video it set off my Alexa and I could not stop laughing!! lol

[@ItsWhateverality]

Kirkland is def costco, which is actually majorly in style, at least here on the East Coast

[@sophn3108]

The top from George at 3:06 is from ASDA (aka Walmart!!!) I'm actually shocked at that price

[@charlottehajda116]

Hey there! When I thrift jeans that are slightly too big in the waist but the rest of the fit is perfect, I do the shoelace trick where you snip little holes in the inside of the waist band and feed through a shoelace. Bam! Now you can sinch it as much as you want!

[@wendystephens2730]

The fairy dress is adorable. The Kirkland jeans are from Sam’s ClubI bought $2 jeans today at Walmart and made them into Jory’s. So cute🌺🌺

[@CoverediCake]

When I did a search on the tule fairy dress I got pictures from like Ali express...but they might have copy it. Lovely dress either way 😊

[@annmariegraham2763]

I’ve seen a few comments with an easy way to take jeans in at the waist with a shoelace. I have a similar suggestion that has worked really well for me and also might be more comfortable than a shoelace. Cut some slits on the inside (not all the way through the front) of the waistband a few inches from the button and the button hole. Pull a thicker piece of elastic through. Create a button hole on the ends of the elastic by cutting a small slice and quickly run a flame over it to keep it from fraying. Then just sew buttons on the inside and you have a waistband that fits perfectly but also has stretch! It takes less than 10 minutes to do it! Hope this helps next time!
