Same here. Consignment shops are also a good source for nice things at a reasonable price.

I've found 2 consignment shops here in this area....both of them believe that only people size 1 or 2 need to bring their clothes in!!!!!!

Your presence at the funeral will be priceless, believe me. My DBIL wore jeans to my husbands' funeral and I was honored. Few knew that he had driven 1600 miles roundtrip the week before to see DH, then turned around and drove back
when he passed quickly. That said, I find myself measuring things in fabric-dollars too! Too funny.

thank you --- I was trying to put a funny spin on a very stressful time. The dear girl took her own life --- and we're all in such shock.

You sound like me....I have one pair of slacks to wear with acouple different tops when its absolutely required. Otherwise, dressing up to me usually means not-so-faded jeans or capris.

I hate buying new clothes and shoes. I've found that the quality isn't that great, but prices keep going up. I refuse to buy anything unless it's on clearance!

Your friend's family and you are in my prayers.
