Tuesday's Yes I Did Thrift That! - Fur Stole




Before I begin on this gorgeous number here I have to tell you that I decided to change the name of this new series from Thrifty Tuesday to Tuesday's Yes I Did Thrift That! The name change is mainly due to the fact that I get asked this question many times and always feel so good to say yes I did thrift that. 

Sigh...this gorgeous just gorgeous fur stole has been sitting in my closet for I don't even know maybe about a year. With the inclusion of shopping at thrift stores I also attend estate sales. Every week I check the local advertisements for these sales and try to attend when items catch my eye. You are bound to find stellar vintage items and that's just what I did with this beauty.  When I attended the sale, I remember being one of the last people taking advantage of what was there. I spotted the stole in a closet among several fur coats and knew I wanted it right away. The woman assisting gave me the merry go around when I was trying to buy it. I think she wanted it for herself and was upset that I found it. Tough cookies!! Yes it's been in my closet for a while but that does not mean it will not be worn. Soon come. Isn't she just beautiful?? Tears...
