A Blog About My Favorite Things

Ruby Red Slippers

March 6, 2009 by Kristin Fields 1 Comment

Apparently I was unaware that there are consignment sales all over the city providing beautiful clothes at ridiculous prices. I mean, seriously. No wonder these kids I see have the cutest wardrobes I’ve ever seen… there momma’s are staking out sales all over the place and buying Kelly’s Kids clothes for ten bucks!

I met my friend Amye after work and we went to Mountain Chapel United Methodist in Vestavia and racked up. I got Ella a brand new pair of red L’Amour t-straps for nine dollars {those would run me $60+} and didn’t spend more than twenty-five on any of the other outfits. Ladies, these were boutique outfits that would’ve cost me $45 to $65 each in the store, and they look BRAND NEW. I am officially a consignment sale junkie. There’s another one tomorrow and one next week; be prepared to look at lots of cute clothes.

Everything I bought is for spring and summer – I got two short and top outfits, a bubble and four dresses, three of which are ready for monogramming. I did find one outfit that was already monogrammed that I wanted really bad. The initials were one letter off and I was so sad. If it had been less expensive, I’d have bought it anyway and had it appliqued over. Maybe next time!
