I spent my actual Labor Day Goodwill hunting with dudeguy. Always a good time. After picking out a grey blazer (FINALLY! I’d been looking for a very long while), dudeguy brought over a large black t-shirt asking if it was any good.
Is this from Italy?
Now, I am by no means a label whore, but I’ve noted my soft spot for Armani in the blog. As soon as I saw the tag (Collezioni again!) and that shirts were on sale for .99, I snatched it lovingly removed it from his hand. So what if it’s a men’s XL? I planned to make it work. One random skinny belt later and I suddenly feel fresh off of the set of a modern adaptation of Peter Pan.
Sometimes you just have to.

I’m really digging this low-slung skinny belt business. Maybe I’ll wear more dresses (t-shirts?).

*this belt is actually one of my first attempts at haggling at flea markets. After being told it would cost $10 (umm, fuck no) and noticing another girl looking at the same ones a few minutes later (and being equally unimpressed with the price), I chased her down (really), and asked if she wanted to go in on three of them. Apparently, if you bought three, you got a deal….riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Anyway, we ended up getting three for $15. She took two; I took one. Not bad. =D
