I
love to be warm and as a result, I own many
cardigans. This one I snagged on mega clearance last season. It’s large enough
that I can easily wear it over long sleeves which is great as the weather here
goes form cool to cold. I generally don’t like hoods on things other than
hooded sweatshirts or a coat, but I made an exception for this one because it
was such a great deal.
As
I’ve mentioned before, I’m not really a big jeans wearer. I have a few pairs of
skinny jeans that I really like, and I tend to stick with those. This pair,
while not my favorite silhouette, is a high quality pair in a great wash that I
snagged for a fraction of the retail
cost. Additionally, I, like many women, struggle with an appropriate fit in
pants, especially jeans. Something I love
about shopping second hand is that because most clothes have been preowned,
they are prewashed. These jeans are not going to shrink- the size they were
when I bought them is the size they are now, years later. Which is more than I
can say for jeans you buy new in store!
Tell me readers,
Have you ever bought something new only
to bring it home, wash it, and have it shrink or change drastically in
appearance? Comment or email me at BsGoodwillHunting@gmail.com or tweet me

Thriftfully
Yours,
