Anne:

Chowlover2 is right ...

You are too hard on yourself. You looked lovely and you gave a great interview -- I loved your answers. As for the Hermes watch, I'm sending positive vibes your way that you will find another one at an even lower price or the employee will decide to return it.

I'm looking forward to seeing your newest treasures soon.

Thank you ladies for the kind words on the BE interview. I was not overly thrilled with the photos....but I am not too photogenic...so they certainly could have been worse!! The Hermes Medor watch was sold for $80. I honestly almost died! One of the employees bought it! Man...I still think about that! It is my dream watch! Anyway...if it was meant to be mine it would have been!

We have graudated to a new thread...methinks that means we are LEGIT! We filled up a whole thread with fabulous secondhand treasures!

Congrats Anne you looked great!! I see that Anne is becoming famous, Raven is giving reporters tips soon Bravo will be contacting us for a new reality series! Lol!!
 
I have a question for you savvy ladies! I need furniture big time... I have NO closet space in my new home, so I'm looking for storage. I found a three piece set... Two small dresser sections and one large wall-size mirror + drawers set. We're talking about 10ft!!! What is a reasonable price for something like this set? It's not in great condition - some small holes, chips, stains - but it looks nice and is hopefully fixable

Yay....I have always thought there should be a reality series based in the closet! I am ready as soon as I am contacted!

I promise that I was not fishing for compliments! Believe me...when I take a good photo...I post it everywhere anyone might see it! These photos felt a bit awkward when they were being taken so I knew I would not be overly thrilled with the results! Anyway...it was still funto be able to speak with others about something that I love!

Anne, I finally managed to open the article page. You look good! I love everything you wore, esp. the earrings. :loveeyes:
 
Tonight here on the TV news they were talking about second-hand shopping. They showed a consignment store and ... a woman who was dropping off a Bal bag :loveeyes: and a few pairs of CLs. They were going to sell the CLs for 150 euros.
 
Well this thread inspired me to go to the thrift stores around my house (I go to consignment stores a lot but not really stores like the salvation army or goodwill) and I wasn't having any luck until today. I saw some Ferragamo shoes but they were about 2 sizes too small. I did, however, find a super cute DKNY blazer for $5! It's a simple, black, classic jacket that'll look great with some dark jeans. I looked online and similar jackets retail for around $500? I hope that's true, it'll make my find that much more amazing.
