Fur Cape Find
I hope everyone is as excited as I am for the weekend! It has been a long week (yet again). In the photos below are three more of my thrift store finds. This fur cape is fabulous. My favorite characteristics of the cape are the two pockets in the front and its asymmetrical design. I would have purchased it for a lot more than my mother paid for it. (That's how you know it's a good purchase! Good looking out mom!). The price was $2.99- that's why I love Goodwill and their set prices. Another piece from the thrift store is the long sleeve lace shirt. This shirt is a great staple piece and I don't see it going out of style. I wear it with many things. The last item is my Steve Madden blue suede pumps from Plato's Closet. I love this cobalt blue color (more like obsessed). I have been looking for a pair of colored suede pumps and for $14.00, these had to be mine. These pumps will get a lot of use. In many blogs I have been reading, everyone seems to be on a spending freeze. When you thrift store shop you can still find current trends without killing your wallet. Then you can still save for your spring "must have" items. Have a great weekend. I would love to hear if you have thrifted anything lately.
***Sunday I will be posting my give away!!!
I just found your blog via Adrienne at The Rich Life, and I am enjoying it! Your cobalt pumps are amazing : >
ReplyDeleteWhat? $2.99 for that cape? Our Goodwill does not have set prices. I have seen jeans as high as $26.00. They have a separate rack for the "good" stuff and they all have higher prices.
ReplyDeleteI am on a spending freeze but only because I was bringing home too much from the thrift shops (and other places) and not considering my wardrobe...just adding and adding without thinking about what really works. So far, it's not been easy. GW is calling my name everyday!
Great shoes...I love that color, too.
