We arranged to meet up at the local Value village store.
Sheila from Ephemera is a fashion blogger who posts most every day what she wears and she has been doing this since 2008! She has great taste in clothing and likes to wear bright and bold colours. She definitely has, what I call,
"the fashion gene."
Sheila with her Saks Fifth Avenue skirt!
Sheila wore some really great stockings!
Charcoal Hue tights and Joe boots
for the "Sturdy Girl Hostess."
I spent $83.93 and came home with some great loot!
It's Saks Fifth Avenue for the Hostess too!
I like the details
good quality, great fit, soft knit
and it's that shade of grey
that makes my heart flutter.
this looks great on but has no hanger appeal
and it needs to be steamed to get rid of those wrinkles
I'll wear this with a white long sleeved T shirt.
a hat
$14.99
handbag in ostrich leather
I wished that the Liz printed sweater had worked for me
Sheila found that one but even though it was tagged at medium I was swimming in it!
It must have been mis-labelled :)
Cecconi Piero from Italy
earrings with a tribal vibe
Sheila has Blogger cards...
such a nice touch.
Thank you Sheila I had a great afternoon!
P.S. If you are doing the math I bought a few other small items one of which will be a Christmas gift!

How fun! I want to do that with you...how can we arrange that?
Great scores on the clothes, hat, jewelry and bag. You really came home with some great things.
So far, I have met two bloggers in person and a loyal reader. They have all become friends of mine and I cherish the time I spent with them. It's so fun to meet up "live".
I will have to check out Sheila's blog now. xoxo, A
I can just imagine the two of you at VV! I cruise the aisles there and at a few other favorite places in town when I get the thrifty urge. Great buys for you today!
You got so much fab stuff, Leslie! I had such a fun time shopping with you!
I'm so excited to wear all my things - thank you for your help in finding that skirt!
The bag and cardigan are so me, I love them!

What fun! you look a happy pair with the bags of loot!! Ida
I love the cardi! Very chic!
What a fun shopping spree! And how great to meet a fellow blogger!
I NEVER found good stuff at Value Village when I lived in Seattle - I should have known you then so I could go shopping in Canada! Here's to happy thrifting!
Sounds like such a fun day!!!
It looks like you had so much fun! I would love to have been there with the two of you. I really like your sturdy girl boots. They are right up my alley! That purse is just so cool. I love ostrich.
