$16.28

Over the past couple of days I've been in four different thrift stores. Let me tell you some thrift stores look like they haven't gotten anything new since 1986 and have a very distinct smell of dusty closets.

For a grand total of $16.28 I bought-
-a black felt boot length skirt
-a jean boot length skirt
-a salmon colored boot length skirt
-a pink polo
-a white polo
-a dark blue polo
-a purple plaid flannel shirt
-a mickey mouse tie

(The Mickey Mouse tie isn't for Colorado I just saw it and got it. It was 60 cents. I didn't even realize it was mickey mouse until I got home. I just thought it was a cool looking red and black tie.)

Pretty good if you ask me. Especially since none of these places have dressing rooms so you have to guesstimate if anything is going to fit by holding up it up to your body. But of course you're wearing ten bazillion layers because it's -14 degrees outside with the wind chill and you walked there because your brother took the car to his exams.
I guess I did a pretty good job guesstimating because it all works.


And tomorrow I'm getting boots (crossing fingers)

That's quite a color change.
