Why only 80% you ask? (Okay, you didn't, but...)<br /><br />I cannot imagine I would ever find a used truly white T shirt or a really nice black turtleneck sweater, and I cannot live without such items.<br /><br />But I have found some lovely dresses, skirts, jeans and even shoes that are like new. <br /><br />On Tuesday, I'm going with a friend, my thrifting sensei, to a Unique in Chicago, but she's also taking me to some grittier places so I can truly call myself a thrifter.<br /><br />Ellen aka Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892924619560880572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-13730644271987693312014-07-19T07:00:43.312-07:002014-07-19T07:00:43.312-07:00I love these photos!
