Will cheesing it for a 3rd birthday picture (outfit courtesy of Children's Place birthday coupons)
Happy March! Or should I say, "Happy Consignment Sale Month?" Our visit to Little Lambs went pretty well, with 2 more sales on the planner. I came away with a pretty good load for Will's spring wardrobe. The big bummer was that another lady with impeccable taste happened to be there and got to a bunch of stuff I wanted just seconds before I could snatch it up. I guess you can't have it all!
I must admit that if I am going to buy used clothes, I get pretty picky. I want Will to look like a Rock Star! I have a whole new appreciation for my mother who always spent way too much on clothes for me when I was growing up and hardly ever bought herself anything nice. Thanks Mom! I think I have now turned into her. My taste far outweighs my pocket book. I'm sure everyone would be shocked if I actually dressed the way I dream.
Although we are now super thrifty, the fashion diva in me rears her ugly head and races to the racks, trying to be the first one at the sales so my little boy can look like a million bucks. I'm not ashamed to admit that most of his clothes come from consignment sales. However, I am a sucker for a Children's Place coupon or sale, especially at Easter or Christmas! Since we don't spend $$ having pictures taken, the outfits are my guilty pleasure!
Regardless, I think Will would still look good in a paper bag and, if we lived near Hollywood, that he would have already been discovered. Perhaps I am a tad prejudiced? What do you think?
Ahhh, there is NOTHING like a good consignment sale. I need to get on the ball and find some out here in DC. And you're not predjudiced at all... Will is a total rockstar!
ReplyDeleteLove it! And I'm just like you in the not-ashamed-to-shop-consignment-sales and having higher tastes than my pocket book. I hate that I lost my plethora of Gymboree handmedowns as my boss's granddaughter doesn't live with them anymore. Will's still one sharp lookin' guy!
