salvation army

some things are inevitable.  like my car will need hundreds or thousands of dollars of work every year.  whether it be brakes, tires, rotors, or ahem.  a new windshield.  whatever.  thats what budgeting is for right?  what was not inevitable...but more fate perhaps is that the car place was less than 3 blocks from both salvation army and goodwill.  [un]fortunately my car took less than the 2 hours schedule for new brakes and rotors [and $600 less than it cost me the last 2x in ny] so i only went to the sa. 
tacky turquoise silk shirt, tacky paisley polyester shirt, oversized furry vest, reversible [!!!] rain jacket, brown sweater that i have been searching for ... for months.

turquoise wool blazer, pants that hopefully had a shrinkydink moment in the dryer, knit/ponte dress, polyester paisley [sense a theme here?] skirt, corduroy blazer, twee knit sweater
tacky nautical tee [destined to become a tacky nautical skirt], purple leopard top, blue sheer dress, peach sweater, a pepsi cooler, and a green cardigan that i almost bought at target.

only a couple things to refashion, a couple things for the etsy [and perhaps one for my mums], aaand the rest are ready-to-wear.  or wash again cos ive already worn them.  jeez.
