thrill, cheap


I've always been fond of consignment stores and Goodwill, but lately that has turned into a full-blown love.  Please admire this shirt (which is actually raspberry coloured) that I acquired today for $1.29.  Yes!  That is one dollar and twenty-nine cents.  It's surreal when I was in a store yesterday and they had the same shirts for a a price with the decimal moved two places to the right.

And when one is wearing it?  No one can tell the difference.  It stuns me that people pay full price for the same label.  

Small happiness for the day :)

  2. I'm sorry... this color is aubergine.
    Is there lace on it somewhere?

  3. Yes, I'm happy to shop for any and all. There's a fabulous consignment shop across the street from Cafe Flora and her inventory changes pretty much daily.

    Lace!!!??? Forsooth. When have I EVER worn lace? And the label is Eddie Bauer--would he put lace on anything, I ask you.
