Past, Present, Future

PAST:

When I started this site, it was with the intention of being a fun, fashion blog.

Almost immediately, I started my October Outfits 2021 project where I posted a different movie character outfit recreation every day that month.

There was a set of posts about my Thrift Store Scores from my one-and-only in-person secondhand shopping splurge of the past few years.

Another few posts showcased my Outfit of the Day (OOTD) looks, and some of those were callbacks to specific pieces I scored at the thrift store.

In 2022, I did another October Outfits project with a movie cosplay a day.

Then, there were recap posts detailing behind-the-scenes activities explaining how I did things.

Lately, the posts have focused on DIY projects and organization.

PRESENT:

Currently, I’m just coming out of a few hectic months where I was going to a lot of doctor appointments, dealing with the passing of a kidney stone, and doing weekly physical therapy for other health issues.

While I was disappointed that 2023 brought such unexpected chaos and thwarted my intentions for this site, I am prioritizing my health so that I may continue to (hopefully) post something weekly on here going forward.

FUTURE:

I plan to do another cosplay character creation a day for my third October Outfits project.

There will be more DIY posts as I continue to revamp my space.

I also hope to spotlight some upcycling projects as I make new things from other things.

Since I realized I only mentioned my participation in ColorWeek in one post here, I will share my previous photos and my new ones for this year. (ColorWeek was the catalyst for the creation of Thrifty Subversion!)

I am also considering posting more OOTD fashions from both my current and past looks.

What You Can Do to Help:

Up first, I want to thank you for reading my posts. Whether this is your first one or your 50th, I appreciate you taking the time to check out what I’m doing. 🥰

Secondly, I wanna give a special shoutout to my subscribers! Every time I get a new one, it gives me another little boost of inspiration and confidence to continue. 😘

It would help me out tremendously if you would share my site with someone and recommend they give Thrifty Subversion a follow. I’m a one-person show without any budget for marketing so word of mouth is crucial to reach more people. 💕

Follow me elsewhere on your site of choice: Pinterest, Instagram, and Tik Tok. I hope to post more consistently on them when I get back into the groove. 📲

This WordPress site will remain free without paywalled posts, but if you’re in a good place financially right now, all donations and paid subscriptions will help fund future posts and projects. 💰

And last but not least, anyone who purchases something for me off my wishlist will get access to unique images from a photoshoot with the item(s). (Just include your email address/contact information in the note of where you’d like them sent.) 💌

As a bonus: Leave a comment on this post letting me know why you started following, what has been your favorite post, and/or what you’d love to see more of moving forward. Kind and constructive comments are always welcome! ✍️ 

Catch me back here next week for another post.

In the meantime, check out my Pinterest.
