Today’s Thrifter Inspiration comes from Shopalicious, and their wise prediction that classic tweed blazers are the perfect transition piece for spring. However, the retail versions they suggest run from $200-$1,400. What’s a savvy gal to do? Head to your local thrift store; they’re full of vintage blazers like this one, a classic Talbot’s thrifted (with the skirt) for $5.00 at Greenwich Hospital Auxillary Thrift (199 Hamilton Ave., Greenwich, CT 06830). This is one of the easiest trends to follow for spring; formerly reserved for ladies-who-lunch, now you can rock classic tweed blazers on a thrift store budget.
