I spent just twelve dollars at the thrift shop and got a Ralph Lauren oxford shirt, a pair of Ralph Lauren khaki pants (in petite!) and a pair of Talbots' khaki pants (also petite). I love not spending a bundle on clothes I otherwise probably couldn't afford.

YAY!! Some time ago I was in our thrift and got a Donna Karan (DKNY )pair of jeans for about 2 dollars! I was stunned to even see the original pricetag (about 100 dollars equivalent) so it was a new pair of jeans never worn, lucky us eh!!

LOL Cindy. Sometimes we DO have good deals here as well;) But the one and only time I went to the USA my bestest friend in the whole wide world took me to an outlet from one of the most expensive 5th avenue stores. It was not too far from her (she lives in Baltimore) and I had a B AL L !! Got tons of clothes for the most rediculous prices ever, designer stuff etc. LOVED it, and HAD to leave one whole suitcase full of stuff behind ;( I was on overload with what I could take home, lol. SO an good reason to go back, right?? Who knows, maybe in a year or two I will be able...;)

At Goodwill I found a Chico's shirt with the $98 price tag, a NWOT Dale of Norway virgin wool sweat (these sell for about $160!!) and EUC Dansko clogs (new price --$110). I paid $9 and am selling it all on Ebay. I also found a pair of $260 Stuart Weissman high heels (like 5 inches high!) for $30 at DSW. Those are on Ebay as well.

Today at church I got tons of compliments on this darling skirt that I bought at the thrift store for $3. Gotta love a good thrift store dig!
