You not going to believe me when I tell you that I actually paid $2.50 for this MichaelKors mens wool overcoat, but I swear on a stack of vintageWallpaper magazines. I can’t even begin to wonder what the actualretail price was but it wasn’t $2.50,

more like in the neighborhood of $350-500. Michael Kors is the leading American fashion designer forluxury accessories and sportswear. The company’s heritage is rooted inproducing polished, sleek, sophisticated American sportswear with a jetset attitude. We LOVE that…. The next item I found was this gorgeousblack / white wool squared pattern sweater size medium by St. Emile. St. Emile is atraditional fashion brand which has made its name through ready to wearclothing such as suits and business outfits. For St. Emile, individualstyle means clothing yourself according to your type and highlightingyour individuality. This abstract sweater was priced at $4.00. FinallyI scored GiorgioArmani black wool slacks size 40 or USA 6 for $4.00. These slackswould retail for between $450-600 and probably north of that. The Stylereview for Armani’s latest collection is that he took the color blackand ran with it, all the way through a show whose guts were darkestvelvet. He talked about “the new chic,” but what that boiled down towas a very particular precision: a short wrapped skirt a jacket with abroad shoulder – and seaming that evoked Joan Crawford’s exaggeratedtailoring from the forties. Does black and white ever go out of style?You better say no…Please don’t forget to shop at The Thrifters Boutiqueand follow me on Twitter & Facebook. Toodles for now. Daniel
