The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book: Faux Fur
Welcome to The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book! Welcome! This is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. A series co-hosted with Nancy where 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…

They could be plush or fuzzy or looking like real fur or even real fur if you want (although that is not the most politically correct thing to be wearing these days). The cozy…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Leather

The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book: Lace
Welcome to The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book! Welcome! This is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. A while back, 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…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Shorts
Today is the day that Nancy and I would normally be posting our monthly installment of The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. But with Summer vacations and travel and very low participation this month, we decided to skip July and post our Shorts theme on August 15 instead. If you have already submitted photos, no worries, we will be sharing them in August. But if you have not yet sent us your submissions, you now have an extra month to do so! August’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book will be featuring Shorts. I have not worn very many shorts yet this season, so I am going to dig back into the archives of the past year…
