A new store!

A new thrift store opened up nearby, it's called Working Wardrobe and if you're in the OC area it is on the corner of Placentia and 19th. It is very neat and clean, more like a resale shop but the sign says thrift store. Donations, no buying of clothes. The clothing is more brand names and the prices are higher. An example, a pretty Ann Taylor sweater for 14.99. A good price for the item but not thrift prices. They were having a sale, 2.99 for all pants and skirts so I did find a few things I wanted.







I got this really pretty 100% wool skirt from Jones New York.  It is greens and pink.


These super soft and pretty pull on pants from Nieman Marcus are 100% cashmere!   I think they will be so comfortable to wear around and they are extra long : )  I'm extra tall!


And these great jeans, GAP 1969 in great shape.  Can always use another great pair of jeans!

I bought a piece of jewelry on ebay for the first time, I got it for 11.00 and free shipping for a big, red statement necklace.   It is really pretty and the quality looks really good.

  3. omg I am SO jealous of those pants! Cashmere pants that are LONG?! They sound amazing! The new store sounds kind of like a store in Cinci called Dress for Success- it's a more expensive used-item store that's geared toward helping single moms build their professional wardrobes.
