Thriftaholics Weekly #33

Now that we have "I'm a Thriftaholic" we thought we'd share weekly, our thrifted treasure! Thrifted treasure could be an item(s) you have thrifted: thrifted clothing you've worn in outfit posts, thrifted home decor, really any thing you thrifted and want to show off is welcome!

Remember this really is a support group in reverse, we don't want to kick our thrifting habits, we want to embrace them and show them off. And most importantly we want to have fun in the process!

So if you have a thrifted find that you are dying to share, this is the place. Every Tuesday we will have the: "Thriftaholics Weekly Link up."Where you will be able to link up anything you have thrifted whether that be something in your outfit post, a piece of furniture, anything your little thrifted heart desires. There are no limits on what can be linked up, it just simply needs to be anything you've thrifted and fell in love with. Bottom line: If you thrifted, we want to see it. Simple enough right?!

Thanks to all those who linked up last week, it was a blast seeing all of your thrifted finds! I had to narrow it down to my pick of the week (which was super hard you guys are awesome)! 

My Thriftaholic of the week is:
Kimberly from: A Night Owl Blog
Who doesn't love some vintage Pyrex? That's exactly what I thought...Nobody! Kimberly thrifted these amazing Pyrex bowls, and I'm uber jealous! Go you Kimberly!! 

Ana is taking a little bit of time off from blogging, super hope to see her back soon!

The guidelines for linking up weekly are easy:
Link up a post about your thrifty finds, be sure to link the direct post.

House Hunt Stress

Top/Thrifted, Sweater/Thrifted, Jeggings/Kohls, Socks/Kohls, Boots/Old Navy, Beret/f21, Necklace/f21, Glasses/f21

Nate and I have been house hunting for what seems like an eternity, and can I just say it has been next to miserable! What is it about spending buckets full of money that results in death-con five between a couple? When I could no longer count the number of fights on my fingers and toes I stopped counting. All of them are really really stupid too, come to think of it we always fight about stupid stuff that doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. Through all of these disagreements we have learned even more about each other, like we are now on the same page of what constitutes a house as being ghetto...Very important if you ask me. 
We think we are getting close though. If not I think the stress might make use explode! I hands down wouldn't want to go through this with anyone else, I married a gem. Sure do love that guy, and the way he puts up with my HM (high maintenance) tendencies, also if you could do me a solid and not mention that I admitted I am a little on the HM side to him, I'd appreciate it ;).

Lately On Instagram

I decided to take the photo a day challenge that is floating around there out in the blogosphere at the beginning of the month, and it has been a lot of fun! I have been posting my pictures on Instagram. You know the weird thing is about instagram is that I didn't want to look at it too much, or post as many pictures because I knew that I would become instantly addicted (I mean that is the same thing that happened with pinterest). I just know myself all to well, because I'm a full blown addict...Like it's staying up till 2 AM browsing pictures bad. In spirit of my new found addiction I thought I would share some pictures I have taken for the photo a day challenge:

Do you guys instagram? Give me a shout I would love to find some more people to follow! You can find me at @morgan_virginia . Hope you guys have a lovely three day weekend! I plan on doing absolutely nothing, this first week of school has did me in. Loves.

New Camera Euphoria

Sweater/Macy's, T/Target, Jeggings/Kohls, Booties/ Kohls, Shades, Necklace: c/o Brideblu, Rings: Macy's

I am beyond obsessed with my new Canon DSLR camera that I got for Christmas from my loving husband (kudos). These are the first pictures that I have taken with it, and with my new remote...Which was/is a learning process, hence the hot picture above ;). I feel like I am a sponge right now soaking up anything and everything that has to do with taking and editing pictures. I would love to get some pointers from you guys! 

Any tips with taking pictures with a camera remote?
Any tips for shooting pictures manually?
Any tips for editing pictures in photoshop?
What do you prefer, pictures that are more simply edited or gussied up?

Thanks guys! I am so excited to see what you have to say and try out some new things! Love

I'm In For A Treat

Vest/Thrifted, Top/Target, Jeggings/Kohls, Boots/Blowfish, Necklaces/f21and Brideblu

Ok so I cheated a little on the EBEW challenge by adding the brown boots, but really a girl can only wear so much black and white....Convinced?
I have to share a little conversation that Nate and I had the other night:

Him: Can we get like moistened wipes to wipe our future baby's butt?
Me: Wait what?
Him: You know like those Cottenelle wet wipes? I don't want to wipe their butt with TP, stuff will get everywhere.
Me: It's never been more obvious then right now that you have never changed a baby's diaper. You don't use TP to wipe a babies butt silly!
Him: You don't?
Me: No they make baby wipes!! They take care of all your wiping needs!
Him: Oh....

All I can say is man I'm in for a treat!
