not posting, but definitely thrifting

I've just got to get some photos up. Last night I bought yet another coat... this one leather with woolly trim. A definite vintage find for $45 from the Salvation Army. Then while googling the label to not much avail, I found this amazing link which has me a little scared for myself, although truely, I'm not big on internet shopping, I need to touch and feel.
Earlier in the week, at the same Salvation Army, on 8th Street in the West Village, I made a $45 haul of 1 black dress, 1 tie dye dress (do you know how much I love tie dye?) 1 pair of silk cargo pants, a brown cotton tshirt, and an Eileen Fisher silk dress in a brilliant green.
I'm beginnning, okay not just beginning.... I've been thinking about this for awhile now: I've got to start leaving my credit cards at home. I do not need a single article of clothing. It's kind of gotten out of hand. But my thrift obessession is well, an obsession. Retail therapy. But the truth is I really don't want to stop.
