Hello there! Love your blog and your style! I remember you mentioning that you like to go antiquing and thrifting, and I love it too! I'm new to the Hattiesburg area (so your Sunday Spotlights have been a delight!!), and I was wondering if could could share come of the best antique and thrift stores in town? I've only been to the Calico Mall downtown, and it was great! But I'd love to venture out to more place so I can make a day of it! Thanks :)

hey!! I’m so glad you wrote in! Sorry it has taken me so long to answer…I think I mentioned I’ve accidentally been letting these pile up. Oh, laziness.

There have actually been a few new thrift stores to open up.  I noticed one on the way home the other day, but I can’t remember where! UGH! But here are some that I *can* remember :P

Polly Esther’s Closet (mainly clothes and accessories)

McKenzie’s On Main is an upscale antique store downtown (LOVE IT)

The Antique Mall between West Pine and 49. I took some pictures there a while back (before I started the Sunday Spotlight) This place goes on FOR DAYS!! 

The Salvation Army—used to be a weekly thing for me, but now I never drive out that way. But I have some great finds from there!

Thrifties—I’ve only been once and it was on my way to something else, so I really can’t say much about this one. 

Hudson’s—also use to be a weekly thing for me. I actually just heard that they have some great stuff in right now!! (See also: Dirt Cheap, Treasure Hunt, & BCH)

These are just some of the ones I know about and like. If any of you readers out there know of some great ones, please share!!!
