I have mixed feelings about thrifting- too often I can’t find things that fit a petite, but 8 get the sales googles and buy anyway. But YLF has taught me to be more discerning, and I am figuring out a few silhouettes were misses sizes work, so I may need to revisit a few places. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrifting-thanks-to-jaileen#post-1876327 Sun, 07 Jan 2018 18:31:38 +0000 Jenni NZ 1876327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well FashIntern I think it was luck in this case. I think having shopped much less for the year and having a really good knowledge of what was in my wardrobe helped- I could immediately tell it was the right colour for those olive pants. I didn't even try it on- I thought for $8 if it didn't fit I could donate it right back to the same good cause. It looked like it would fit and does so perfectly.<br /> Hoping that in the future luck may strike again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thrifting-thanks-to-jaileen#post-1876322 Sun, 07 Jan 2018 17:59:49 +0000 Anonymous 1876322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The top is lovely on you.

I would have liked to wear such a top in spring ( which is Sep-Nov) or autumn( Mar-May). I had a disastrous try of a paisley shirt which had gorilla arms for me. Then I was dropping off my cast-off high heels and jumpers to the hospice shop to donate them. And on a whim, I thought of J'Aileen's thrifting successes and decided to pop into the shop part. Within one minute, there was this Verge ( a really good brand) olive shirt which turned out to be silk. For $8!<br /> We then went on holiday to warmth and after that summer. But today it has been raining and it was cooler. Fourth wear. Yay J'Aileen! </p>
