My biggest steal was a authentic shearling jacket (not the faux wool or leather) for 25 bucks. Do you know I have been wanting a shearling coat since I was a freshman in high school and that was over 15 years ago? I know I could have waited but some butthole kept ripping off the tag (from what the workers told me) and I might have to work on the discount days. <br /><br />I also found some nice culottes (wool and vintage), several Banana Republic items and J.Crew. I also scored a Diane von Furstenburg blouse for cheap. The prices was pretty good for vintage. Much better than this other thrift store I used to visit with a friend of mine. I did see a sweet wool coat from the 70s but put it back because I have too many coats as it is. <br /><br />I guess I learned that I have to go with an open mind and don't look for labels, focus on the quality of the clothes and the condition. I also learned that I need to expand my horizons and look beyond one chain of thrift stores and look in my own backyard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24156653.post-35963414785760161032011-10-26T17:05:48.245-04:002011-10-26T17:05:48.245-04:00thanks!! that is a steal with the gowns!thanks!! that is a steal with the gowns!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12930756471014012434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24156653.post-64498065718046159632011-10-24T21:39:23.020-04:002011-10-24T21:39:23.020-04:00I love this post!

Being that I am PLUS SIZE too this was a real steal. (:Tamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03535445557754114672noreply@blogger.com
