About Me
Thrift & Tell® is a celebration of fashion and the love of a good deal. I began T&T on a whim, when I woke up one morning with the name in my head. While I think T&T is about fashion and not so much about me, I know some of you like to know about the “woman behind the bargains” so here are a few details about me:
I have been thrifting my entire life.
Personality Type: ESFP
I have always valued quality over quantity.
I have a full-time corporate job outside of T&T.
Love: Leopard print, laughing, white Jeans, BravoTV, chutzpah, entrepreneurship, cashmere, clean sheets, anything with glitter.
Hate: Paying retail, Balenciaga sneakers, shoes on the bed, people who itemize the bill at dinner (along with general stinginess), pickles, delayed flights.
Style Philosophy: If you invest in great accessories, the rest will fall into place.
Favorite Housewives Franchise: New York (without question)
I went to Catholic school from K-12 (and have the Catholic guilt to prove it.)
Favorite Movies: Father of the Bride (I&II), Notting Hill, Clue, & You’ve Got Mail
Songs That Never Get Old: Dreams Fleetwood Mac - Got to Give it Up Marvin Gaye - Slow Burn Kacey Musgraves- Native New Yorker Odyssey- Stardust Nat King Cole- La Belle Fleur Sauvage- Lord Huron.
Happiest State: Golden hour on a beach with friends I love.
Real Housewives Tagline: “You probably didn’t ask for my opinion… but you should have....”
Icons: Joan Rivers, Kelly Ripa, Ziwe, Dolly Parton, Karen Walker, Kate Spade, Iris Apfel, and any other outspoken, strong, smart, funny woman.
