Going To The Thrift Store
I felt so depressed and old after reading the Old Man Threads on this Board. U boyz are real bummers.
So to pull myself out of a downward spiral I put on my Dragon on the azz BJ'S headed out to do some shopping at the thrift.  And who should I run into at the Thrift but my friend Sky. If you really want to see a good pic of her you should take a look at the stuff she has done for Chanel.  Wearing those Dragon on the azz jeans just does the trick as I dont feel so old and depressed now. Last edited by tabs; 09-10-2016 at 03:05 PM.. |

I got my biker jacket from the thrift shop. GF said there was one there and I complained and squirmed and said I was very fussy about what I wanted in a jacket. She dragged me down there and it was a perfect fit/look/color/everything. AND my $45 fed a lot of cats at the Cat's Protection League thrift shop

Screw the shoes and the jeans, find a camera that takes pictures right side up.

I found a pair of $400 Nacona boots at our thrift, barely scuffed soles, for $8.00. Yes $8.00. I go there every weds. as it's seniors day and everything is half price. LL Bean, Orris,Patagonia, and other high end shirts. $3.00, $1.50 for me. Lots of stuff that still have tags. Half my closet is from the thrift.

A good deal of my wardrobe is from secondhand stores. You can find unique, interesting stuff. Just like a good deal of my other purchasing is from eBay.

I love thrifting. Got some terrific finds at Beacon's closet in NYC last weekend. A pair of light grey Italian leather summer shoes for $15, a new Rapha rain jacket for $25 (!!), a large Vaho shoulder bag for $16, and on and on. It was almost epic.

A friend scored 2 Brioni suits for $60...Those are 6k each. 3 pairs of Tom Ford shoes..1500 a pair and a pair of T Ford Croc shoes that cost 12k.
These stores can be lucrative. |
