You and the girls should have a scavenger hunt at a thrift store . That would be sooo much fun. Like a list of hard to find items example: Something new with tags An Italian item Golden girls Something scary Just gave you a few examples to find. Lol
I saw the 3 of you there but you were filming so I didn’t want to interrupt (I see myself in the back of the shots of you going through the boxes LOL) Just wanted to tell you hi and thank you for these videos! I love watching and you have helped me learn to appreciate my body!! ❤️
For the corset you need to do something called the swoop and scoop. It repositions your breast tissue so it actually sits properly in the bra cups. You will be surprised how much you can fill out the cups when your tissue is properly positioned instead of more compressed outward and spread out. Trust me it’s like magic! You should also totally get fitted like Sierra did recently if you’re comfortable with that. I promise it will change your life!
I love what you said about enjoying the day instead of focusing on what you bought! I know the point of thrifting is to thrift, but i love watching the journey and seeing the market environment. I live in a place where outdoor flea markets are not even a thing!
I’ll hand it to you, you’re a one woman show and you’re able to pump out both vlogs and main channel videos regularly. Huge kudos to you. I know some content creators have an entire team to support them and yet only produce one main channel video every 3-6 months, like okay, cool, I wish I could work once every 3-6 months too.
I’m thinking about looking into that!! Trying to decide if it’s worth it to sell/give it to someone who it would fit and just buy a different one, or tailor it to fit me 🤷🏼♀️ we’ll see!!
@Carrie Dayton I work at a plus sized clothing store, and we've been playing with styling corsets for a little while now (since we got some cute ones in). I've been loving it!
Love the corset!! You could dark the center or side of the cup to make the cup size smaller. It’s a minor sewing job and a fun way to alter your clothes
Bra sizes are SO confusing, I learned about "sister sizes" and it made sense but it taught me that bra sizes really don't mean what we think they do! A 42C has the same "volume" of the cups as a 40D or 38DD, so that's probably why it didn't fit like you wanted. Hopefully a tailor would be able to work their magic because it looked so good with those jeans!
Per my google search, this is the difference between a bomber and varsity jacket: "To allow for better movement in the constricted space of a cockpit, bomber jackets were designed to be thin. This is why they're made of synthetic materials with a nylon shell and polyester interlinings. In stark contrast, varsity jackets are mostly only made of natural fabrics like cotton, wool, or suede."
Girl have Alexa do her magic on the corset. Cut a center dart into the cup and sew it to size. I know she could do it. Cuz that corset is just too cute and it’s so nice to see you out of your comfort zone! You look so good❤!
I had a very similar corset top for my wedding! If it’s hook closures in the back, don’t be afraid to change the orientation of the hooks, like they don’t all have to be in the same row! You can also adjust and scoop your chest and stomach area to have it fit better.
I think being very intentional in shopping isn't easy or popular, but I think it is better. I have gotten so frustrated with myself for just buying so many things that I give away and/or never wear. I really try and think "is this filling a hole in my wardrobe" or "is this replacing something in my wardrobe" before I consider buying the item. It saved me a lot of money recently.
The wall sconces look like they might be Syroco, in which case you actually got a great price for them :) They are probably plastic but, yknow, cute collectible vintage plastic from the 60s/70s, which is awesome
The difference between varsity jackets and bomber jackets is that technically, a varsity jacket's sleeves are a different color than the body of the jacket (school colors). A TRUE varsity jacket will also have the Varsity letters on it (and should have the 2-digit year of graduation).
The corset is so cute i would get the bra cup part tailored if i were you - i have tailored legit half my closet because things never fit my proportions lol
I am already subscribed to Alexis and it was cute seeing you guys out and about working thru those boxes. Oooooo so after all that digging, and you only came out with a few things. Good I was not in your ear because I would have been screaming get those varsity jackets, etc. LOL! Thanks for sharing and blessings to you and all in the days to come.
My son would have loved the raiders crew neck, I would have gotten the cat t shirt, my mom use to have those candle wall things, it came with a mirror, looks like a fun day
I’m sorry the corset didn’t fit but it looks like it’s my perfect size. I’ve wanted one like that for so long I hope I can snag it if you put it up on Poshmark lol. We are similar sizes so I’m so happy I found your videos it really helps me feel more confident.
I love that Taylor Swift sweater! It’s so cute on you! It never gets cold enough here in Florida for that sweater or I’d be scouring the internet to find one!
That is a girdle😄The top looked huge on you so a few stitches around the sides underarm area pulling it tighter to your tah tahs would help😊Is a cute idea.I love the vest!
Carrie Dayton I am very excited I am go spring at mall I am very excited get new spring clothes I will love getting new spring clothes I will love it Carrie Dayton love you Mandy
I love how you include hauls in the same video, rather than splitting it up and releasing the haul later. Thank you!!
Love this too!
SAAAAAME
Yessssss!!!!

Omg I wish I’d gotten to meet you!! You are so kind and that means so much 🥹❤️ hope to run into you next time!

oh i did the swoop and scoop lol!! i tried my best 😂 i've had a bra fitting video on my list for honestly years - i need to get on that!
You can also add bust pads in and it would probably work out great!

ooh--you could try cutting the cups out of the corset and style it as a harness-esque piece on top of shirts or dresses! worth a shot!
Love seeing all you girls. Haul sizes shouldn't matter as long as you're happy with your purchases.
Love that corset! You may be able to get it altered for a reasonable price!
I’m thinking about looking into that!! Trying to decide if it’s worth it to sell/give it to someone who it would fit and just buy a different one, or tailor it to fit me 🤷🏼♀️ we’ll see!!

It's so nice to see you three having fun together! 😊💕
Seeing you three together warms my heart 💕💕💕

The sweater vest!!! U really have an eye because that try-on was EVERYTHING 😍
Omg thank u so much 🫶❤️

You can also adjust and scoop your chest and stomach area to have it fit better.
Looking so cute! I can see how the extensions make your braids so full. And your brows and makeup are so cute!
I believe the sconces you found are vintage! I have a matching set (sconces and matching mirror) that I inherited from my grandmother. Love them!
Yes i have a mirror with the fancy corners too! Vintage plastic is still vintage!
oooo i'm excited!! 😍
C cup in a 42 is like a 40D, is like a 38DD or E, etc. Cup sizes adjust with ban size.

Omg Karina’s giant heart necklace is amazing! And you all look so cute ❤
love whenever I see the trio of you, Karina and Alexa, all my favourites!
You look SO cute at the beginning of the video!! You always look cute but you look especially cute with that makeup and look 🥰💕
Some advice - I had sconces and tried to have real candles and it melted and we had a big fire! I suggest electric candles!!
No need to apologize for small hauls! Much healthier modeling than being home a load of laundry!😊
This was the perfect length video for me to dye my hair too. Thanks Carrie 😂
I think the sconces would look SO cute in your bathroom!!
I understand, I've had my Chicago Cubs Satin Bomber for well over 30 years now, and still try to wear it occasionally.
Put glass tubes in them candles holders and makes them plant propagation holders!
Love your glasses! I need them immediately!
PLS PUT THAT CORSET ON POSHMARK I NEED IT!!!!😫😫😫😫😫
GIIIRLLLLLL YOU BETTER GET THE CORSET ALTERED BECAUSE YOU ARE SERVINGGGGG IN IT!!!!!
Hey Carrie! I really enjoyed every video you uploading, keep up the good work!!
The wall sconces look like they might be Syroco, in which case you actually got a great price for them :) They are probably plastic but, yknow, cute collectible vintage plastic from the 60s/70s, which is awesome
It wasn’t a big haul, but it was a quality haul for sure! I would definitely look into altering the corset.
please, I LOVED that raiders crewneck 😭😭😭
It was sooo cute right!!
That sweater vest gave me flash backs to my high school band uniform 😂
the braids look so good on you!

Don’t give up on the corset yet! If you buy some Hook and Eye Tape, I think you can sew it in and make it smaller for you 😊
Honestly sometimes its better to see the struggle to find good stuff instead of getting loads of stuff that are meh, its more realistic and relatable!
I have to admit I'm not convinced by the corset yet 😅 but I'm sure you'll get it altered and styled in a way that does make me fall in love with it
The corset is so cute i would get the bra cup part tailored if i were you - i have tailored legit half my closet because things never fit my proportions lol
I think the corset with a leather jacket with jeans or jeans and a blazer also with some low chunky heels
I am already subscribed to Alexis and it was cute seeing you guys out and about working thru those boxes. Oooooo so after all that digging, and you only came out with a few things. Good I was not in your ear because I would have been screaming get those varsity jackets, etc. LOL! Thanks for sharing and blessings to you and all in the days to come.
Can you try Alexander Jane Boutique? I am very interested in their tummy control denim jeans. Also, girl you are glowing!
The sconces are probably home interiors which means they’re probably like $30-$50 if you decided to resell them online, so you got a pretty good deal
My son would have loved the raiders crew neck, I would have gotten the cat t shirt, my mom use to have those candle wall things, it came with a mirror, looks like a fun day
If you really like the corset, a seamstress or tailor can reduce the cup size for you.
I want that corset top so bad!! It is too cute and just my size. I'll be refreshing your poshmark lol
ahh im from long beach it was so surreal seeing you go there when I go to that flea all the time :)
Love that vest! So versatile 💕
Love the Taylor swift sweater!!!
I follow Karina and Alexa so naturally I follow you now ❤😂 don’t be sorry for not buying stuff 😅 it’s okay to not buy
Can i just say how cute you look!!! She is beauty she is grace!
I’m sorry the corset didn’t fit but it looks like it’s my perfect size. I’ve wanted one like that for so long I hope I can snag it if you put it up on Poshmark lol. We are similar sizes so I’m so happy I found your videos it really helps me feel more confident.
Ooooooh the sconces ⚜️⚜️⚜️
You are the sweetest human! ❤️

Your outfit is so cute today
Is that corset gonna be on your poshmark 👀👀
That looks like an amazing flea market. I am in Chattanooga and we don't have anything that good.
I'm going to Japan in a month as well! Maybe I'll see ya on the plane.
your outfit! 😍
It would be great to have the corset altered, because it looks great on you!
What is your lip combo ? It’s BEAUTIFUL 💕
Looking good!! Love the video!!
Will you come to Japan!?!?I'm so excited to watch your Japan Vlog! I'm from Japan:)
we will be there in a few more weeks and i can't WAIT!!! ❤
I will buy the corset if you end up selling it ha. Can you get it tailored?
The flea markets in MA are so dingy and gross. Jealous of this one!
That is a girdle😄The top looked huge on you so a few stitches around the sides underarm area pulling it tighter to your tah tahs would help😊Is a cute idea.I love the vest!
Have Alexa do a tie back on the corset. I know he likes a challenge.
Looking beautyfull Carrie,
Hey girls!
Grate finds. I wished we had a flea market like that
Hugs XXX
How could you pass on the kinky pigs? 😂😂
Who else did a double take at the pig shirt lol 😆
SAME 😂
Rip I can’t believe you passed up on kliban’s cat.
Take the cups out of the corset and use it as an under bust moment!
💕
Carrie, do you like Glen Campbell's music?
Carrie! Cut the cups out of the corset - it will be perfect!
Yay 😀 👏🏼 ❤️
How come you are saying it’s kind of a fail if your intention was to be more mindful about what you buy?
daannnggg i’m early again 🤪
Are you still friends with Jessica and Leah? When will we get a thrift queens vaca again?
