Well hello there! My name is Amanda and I run From a Heart Overflowing! I’m a college sophomore originally from Puerto Rico but now living in Northern Arizona. I spend my days baking, drinking coffee, exercising, thrifting, crafting, playing with babies, and laughing like a crazy lady with my family or my mister of three years, Jacob. I’m a huge fan of lace, seeing the beauty in everything, floral patterns, watches, anything and everything chocolate, blazers, dancing in the car, and smiles.

I stumbled across Katherine’s wonderful blog a few months ago and quickly became obsessed. I had never been a huge clothes thrifter but once I started, I couldn’t stop. Being a full time college student and all, the budget for clothes is often quite small so thrifting not only allows me to not spend a load of money, but to also get pieces that others will not have.
Katherine asked me to share some of my favorite thrifted items so here we go!
I just recently purchased this dress at Goodwill for a whole $6 and just love that it’s long enough for my 5’8” frame (which is often difficult to find). It’s a perfect spring dress and I’ve already decided it will absolutely be my Easter dress!
This dress I also bought for $6! I quickly fell in love with the hearts pattern and was so glad when it fit like a size small normally would. Unfortunately, I found it a week after Valentine’s day but I think every day should be full of love so I’m loving wearing this. This cropped blazer is also another thrift find I am in love with that I got for 50 cents. It goes with just about anything!
Let’s be honest, we all have a “back up outfit” we where when nothing else feels right or we’re just in a hurry. This is my go to outfit. I found this blazer for $3 and I wear it several times a week. I also got this purse for $2 recently and I now use it all the time.
Well, thank you for reading! And thank you Katherine for having me!
Feel free to come by fromaheartoverflowing.blogspot.com and say hello!
