Welcome to The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book!

Welcome! This is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. Over a year ago, Nancy and I started The Bad Buy Book, a monthly series about our worst purchases. It was a lot of fun to do and we both learned something from it, too! Nancy learned that off-white against her face is not the most flattering color. And I learned that I have a serious problem resisting a good thrift shop find when it comes to pieces that fit “good enough” but “not quite right.” However, after running that series for a year, we decided to change it a bit.

For this series, you can choose whether you want to share a Good Buy (which is an item you are really exited about) or a Good-Bye (which is an item you are going to say good-bye to, previously known as a Bad Buy). We will keep purchasing Bad Buys every now and then for a variety of reasons…it was so cheap, you were in a hurry and really wanted (needed) to buy something, it fit almost quite right. But, of course, we also have those purchases that can make us so very happy. A piece of clothing that you have had for years and that you also wear a lot. Or something you bought on a holiday and every time you wear it you get that nostalgic holiday feeling back. Every month you can choose which item you want to submit. A Good Buy or a Good-Bye. We will provide the theme for each month. Photos should be submitted to us by the 10th of the month with a few sentences explaining why it is a Good Buy or Good-Bye.

And now without further adieu, check out all the cute graphic tees that you have submitted…good buys and good-byes…they are all fun to see!

Let’s begin with my co-host, Nancy of Nancy’s Fashion Style, showing us her Good Buy Graphic Tee.

“I like this graphic tee for it’s simplicity and the fact that it’s a conversation starter – a lot of people ask about the meaning of the phrase!”

And finally my Good Buy Graphic Tee (I shared a Good-Bye Graphic Tee on Nancy’s post so be sure to check that out as well).

“‘My coffee needs coffee’- This is one of my favorite ever graphic tees (absolutely a Good Buy) because it is the story of my life. This tee has appeared at least 3 times on my blog and I have worn it probably 2 dozen times and will continue to wear it many more times. Definitely worth the $10 I paid for it!”

I know I usually share the featured favorite posts at this point, but as I sit down to write this part of the blog post my heart is much too heavy with grief. So instead I am going to simply ask for thoughts and prayers for my little community. There was a tragic house fire early yesterday morning in my neighborhood that claimed three lives including one of my 7 year old’s 2nd grade classmates and has left two other children in critical condition. The school district and the community have been wonderful in providing necessary resources for grief counseling for the children in the elementary school as well as their family members. It is a thing that one never anticipates having to discuss with their children, yet here I am having these very difficult conversations while trying to keep myself together. So please hold your loved ones tight, let them know you love them, and make sure you are diligent with your fire safety plans in your homes. I may go silent on the blog for a few days while we get through this process. Please keep sending positive healing energy to our small town.

With a broken heart on the edge,

Shelbee
