my thrift store clothing bonanza
I did great. I know some of these styles probably won't be too appealing to some, but I LOVE stripes and wear them almost daily. lol
I spent roughly $20 for these clothes. (Might be slightly less because I also purchased a nice trivet, a container for tea, and a nice little cross stitch framed pic.
Here are my clothes.
First up is one Croft and Barrow shirt and two Liz Claiborne shirts.If you'd like to help support Frugal Living by Sara Noel, my syndicated column, e-mail, write, or call the managing editor at your local newspaper and ask them to publish it in print or online.

I had to tell myself to leave before it got to be silly because I don't need anymore shirts than what I already had in my cart.
Too much fun.
I had to try one of the shirts on because it was a medium but looked so small and is a really thin and light material. It fit ok and was nwt. (the lavender one) I thought for sure it would be too tight, so lucked out.
The floral one is a stretch for me. lol
I also always seem to hesitate on black/white stripes. lol Not because of the zebra effect, but because they make me kinda dizzy when I look at them. lol
