Spend Less, Look Great
I love vintage!
About a year ago, I read a newspaper article in a waiting room about a local vintage seller. Much to my husband’s chagrin, I immediately went shopping and put a collection of vintage clothes on line. Since then I’ve gotten a thrill out of uncovering finds for my Etsy clients. What do I like about it? I’ve got an eye for it, I can keep prices low and still make a profit, and I especially dig the enviromental/anti-consumerism high I get from shopping secondlife.
Last month’s Blueprint featured a patch of cold weather coats, including
The problem? It costs $695!
You can get the same look at my place for a fraction of the cost. Here’s my $45 pretty — ready to funk out with a row of buttons and black boots (see above), or ready as-is for classic stylistas.
In fact, I’ll make the deal even sweeter — tell me you’re a Magpie Girl reader when you order any coat between now and the end of the year and I’ll give you a $5 discount. Fly on over to Magpie Etsy.

Great coat and a great price!
I used to go shop at the local Salvation Army Thrift shop (which is my absolute favorite place to shop) and resell it on ebay. It made me a little cash, S.A. made money, and it was fun to do.
Lately though I’ve just been too busy.
First I love your “small is beautiful” blog. Your style rocks.
Second, I used to do this same things a few years ago. What fun I had. I am a vintage-loving gal and thrift store junkie. Love your Etsy Shop!
Third, thanks for stopping by Slurping Life. Good luck in the drawing for the camera.
Ohhh, I love that red coat! We don’t have any good thrift shops around here so I never find any good deals. You’re a lucky gal!
