Thrift shopping can be rewarding and daunting at the same time. It takes patience and lots of time but most well known thrift retailers have done most of the work for you by categorizing product by type, gender and size. Some of my favorite thrift finds are pieces I never knew I needed and don’t know what I’d do without. This grid/check coat found last winter is one of those. The lining needed to be trimmed and hemmed from years of wear but feels brand new to me still. Don’t forget to take the time to look in unexpected places while thrifting. You never know what kind of heavy knit pullover treasures you can find in the men’s or young boy’s sections.

I'm Michele - a designer and creative, but mostly a Mama to my twin two-year-old girls Macie Lou & Marlowe. Wright for Michele is a Portland based Lifestyle blog devoted to cultivating stylish, relatable and creative content. It also serves as a personal time capsule of my family’s journeys, giggling and stumbling a bit, through it all.

ABOUT THE BLOG

Wright for Michele is a Portland based lifestyle blog devoted to cultivating stylish, relatable and creative content. It also serves as a personal time capsule of my family’s journeys, giggling and stumbling a bit, through it all.

I started "Wright for Michele" back in 2010 as a creative outlet and to share the things I love (basically the exact same reason the rest of the internet started blogging). Often this blog is about family, sometimes it’s about style, and in general it’s about life and how you (and me) can make every single area in it, better. It’s simple, it’s real (sometimes a little raw and almost always full of grammatical errors), it’s honest and hopefully no matter what it’s a little sweet.
