Fashionistas, I know today’s going to be a bit of a crazy day down in Washington, DC. So I want to take you on a virtual trip down south for a quick mental break and enjoy some classic and incredible Goodwill finds!
Today’s Fashionista Friday is an absolute Georgia Goodwill genius. She always finds the best designer items on a dime at her stores.
Meet Caitlin!
Caitlin is a Georgia peach, retired hairstylist, and doggie lover. She has three pups and seemingly hits Goodwill stores every weekend; taking home some of the greatest finds on Instagram that I’ve seen to date.
Speaking of which, check out two of her designer couture Miu Miu by Prada finds from the past couple weeks. I found these when searching through #MyGoodwillFind and #Goodwill to discover this week’s Goodwill shopper treasures.

I have only found a few pairs of Miu Miu shoes (not my size… womp womp) at DC Goodwill stores, but nothing this practical and cute!
As you see, Caitlin picked up not only an authentic black leather purse (originally retails for $400+), but also a pair of snazzy and sassy sunnies (originally retails for $150+) with the case included. Talk about the perfect set! I wonder if the same person donated these two items – they’re both so stylish! It only makes sense.
I am particularly in love with this black bag – especially the gold branded hardware on the front. Gold and black bags are staples I always have in my closet. Whenever I see a designer one at a Goodwill store, I almost always take it home. No questions asked.
Black matches most outfits, no matter what the season. And the gold hardware? If you wear a gold necklace or earrings the buckles and latches on the bag will function as a device to create a more unified look. And they will also draw the eye back to your jewelry.
Thanks Caitlin, for always sharing your finds with me on Instagram! I always love interacting with you and fawning over each others’ steals. I need to travel in your direction to explore your stores!
