#ThriftyThursday: The perfect fit

#ThriftyThursday: The winter weather we have been wishing for has finally made its arrival. Bundling up on a brisk December morning is a to be done in style.

Finding the perfect winter coat appears as a contest. For a coat to be my “favorite,” it must meet unique requirements: purchased at Goodwill (obviously!), sleeves that hit at the wrist, and the length must be mid-thigh. I scored a Cynthia Rowley tweed coat, this season’s “favorite,” at the Bardstown location for $5.99.

The name brand designer speaks for itself, however the fit and condition were what sold me. Perfectly cut sleeves and a buttoned cowl-neck allow for layers and accessories to be worn underneath for a complete look. This coat is perfect for any occasion, coordinating well with business professoional or denim.

I challenge you to find this winter’s outerwear at your local Goodwill! Thrifting outerwear makes for a warmer winter.

Best,

A
