I am back : ) I know you missed a few outfit posts, but I just wasn't diggin it. Not looking for the face time I suppose. Well here we go again...
Word on the street is strips are in again... and I scored this lovely top sale-ing this weekend.
This weekend I was introduced to a wonderfully dangerous event that happens annually in the City of Ferndale. They call it "Bargain Days" and what that translates to is a truly City-wide garage sale, I am talking main street shops have sales, and residents all across the town pulling out the garage sale stops. You park and walk, and just walk, there are that many, you just see the next one from the one you are at.... it is an all day event. We got there around 9:30 and finally called it quites around 4... and honestly could have kept going if we wanted.... and they go again on Sunday.
All in all, I spent 23 dollars total, and that is including my $4 fancy coffee prior to the start of sale-ing... picked up a singer sewing machine for $5, a perfume mirror for $2, a frame for my marathon 5x7 pictures for $1, a fun scarf, Danskos for $2 (might have been the overall best deal of the day), and a much of other small little things. There was plenty of furniture, and if you needed baby stuff, you could outfit a child for the year, then return the next year, and I am sure the sizes would increase right along with your kid. Fortunately this allowed us to hop over those sales, as we are not there in life yet. $23 for a day full of walking in beautiful sunny weather, picking up a sewing machine so I can finally hem stuff without toting everything over to someones house to do it.
shirt - Seven via garage sale
jeans - Gap via consignment
heels - Vera Wang (score of the century as well, for $10)
vest - consignment
scarf - gift
A wonderfully spent Saturday, and easy on the bank account as well... can't complain about that now can we?
Now if I could just figure out if I like the scarf or the vest with the shirt... hmmm, what do you think?
both! The vest is more mod/professional...and the scarf says "cool day in Paris (i.e. rainy day in Humboldt)"
