Okay, picked up a lot of pretty clothes this Fourth of July from both Salvation Army and Goodwill.
First Salvation Army. Notes about them, store very clean, even the bathroom. That was the good. The bad, seeing them ruin clothes with staples. Why in the hell would those morons think that stapling price tags was a good idea!?
Short top, I never go this short because I get paranoid about showing my crotch area, that thing does still sometimes gets hard and even though it has yet to visibly bulge out, it still makes me nervous, but I couldn't resist, love the color and pattern, had to get, besides can't beat 99 cents.
Mom saw this one, showed it to me while laughing about the silliness of the pattern, I said, ooh, that's me right there!
One my mom picked out for me while I was trying stuff on, tossed it over the door and said, here, try this one on - I likes, hugs my curves nicely.
This dress looked comfy and feminine, comes down a little low on the breasts but figured I'll chance it, because it looked pretty on me and my mom agreed. Only problem, price stapled to it, created small holes that I don't think can be fixed, material is too thin and stretchy, stupid morons ruining pretty clothes like this.
Close up (I do have to find some way to tighten up those straps though, my right boob being so small keeps trying to come out).
This very long demin dress is definitely something that would look good on my figure, shows every curve, plus the slits along the sides allows me still plenty of freedom of movement with my long leg strides.
Goodwill finds. This place had a ton more clothes, but prices are higher and more doesn't equate to better condition, plus too many things in too small sizes that most of the really cute stuff is out of my size range. Dressing rooms were nasty, floor, walls, and ugh, terrible smell. But I found some pretty dresses so I beared with it.
Cute little dress, shortest one I ever owned, makes me feel young and pretty. Wearing this one today and never felt so girly. I feel better today than I had in a very long time.
Something pretty and wow, I never had a dress or any clothing this nice! Where am I going to wear something like this? Who cares, I love it!
Oh my gosh, this is just so pretty, oh and love the netting type stuff attached to the slip underneath. But after when I got it home I now notice flaws I hadn't seen in my excitement when in the store, firstly the seam in the back below the zipper needed to be stitched, mom fixed that. But then later I notice several ever so slight yellowish stains, oh no! Mom tried to remove them, material frayed at one of those spots, made a hole, my throat dropped to my heart. Thinking it ruined too much and trying to keep me from being tortured further by it she tossed it in the trash. But several minutes later I took it back out again, I just could not let this one go, there has to be some way to fix it. If I can just mend the hole the stains aren't really that bad. Its just too pretty to give up on.
Not that I should not shop at those places, because I am happy with what I found, I'm just going to have to eyeball things more critically next time and any times thereafter.
