Another Goodwill Find

I had a lot of compliments on this skirt I wore to work the other day so thought I'd share it.  It's a very lightweight seersucker mint green with  large pleats and wide waist band.  I love wearing skirts in the Spring and Summer because they are much cooler than shorts or capris.  As I was getting on the elevator, a couple of ladies went on an on about how cute it was.  You don't see seersucker much anymore and it can be so tailored looking.  When I told them I found it at Goodwill, they were flabbergasted!  When I told them I only paid $3.99 for it, they were FLOORED.  That's what makes these lucky finds so much fun.  I love the expressions on people's faces when I tell them where I find most of my clothing. 

 

 

Here's a closeup of the fabric.

My little niece Nicole made me the ankle bracelet a couple of years ago.  I wear it all the time.  It's made up with the August birthstone, Peridot. Thank you Nicole!

I had such a fun afternoon today.  I went to Lindale and Mineola to check out the local stuff, and snapped about 45 pictures.  When I got home to download them, I realized I did not have a memory stick in my camera.  As you know, I just got my camera home from having the flash repaired, and somehow all the settings I had stored got set back to default. One of the settings was to warn me if there was no memory stick.  Darn!  I'll have to make another trip and start all over again.  Sometimes it's really hard to recapture a moment though.  Oh well, se la vi!
