Work With What You've Got

SEPTEMBER 1, 2010

I feel straight up out of an Urban Outfitters or Free People catalog in this. Bag, vintage, thrifted by Nathan. Tags: Grandmama Bea Target vintage Thrifted. I know some of you guys hate that, and I apologize, but today I am indulging myself. I’ve been so bored, and this outfit really excited me. In a good way. AND ON SALE. )

Some get stuff from stores, the less financially favored head for thrift stores, garage sales, Mom’s house or the trash pickup routes. When I was newly married (right out of college), I used to sit with my neighbor friend and pour over the paper catalogs that came to dream about all of the neat stuff I wanted to own some day.

Stores like Sears and JC Penney sent out free merchandise catalogs 3 inches thick and people ordered their stuff from those if they couldn’t find it in a store. The only discount store was the 5 and dime aka ‘the dime store’ It did not sell food (except 1 penny candies). People went downtown to do their big shopping.
