Ann Taylor jacket $3.68 - Goodwill |
Inspired by the success style bloggers are having at thrift stores I decided to stop by Goodwill yesterday. I haven't been thrifting in several years and I think it is because I started finding the racks full of raggedy things that really belonged in the recycle bin. Maybe it was the stores I was going to, stores which did not include this particular Goodwill.
I was was very happy to find this practically new Ann Taylor jacket in my size. It is a poly/triacetate long jacket with concealed buttoning and side seam pockets. The darts are interesting, the points meet at the bust which perhaps means it is a princess seam with an angle. This lighter photo shows it better. The jacket also has a thin cord belt but as I'm not a fan of belts of any type for myself I doubt I'll use that.
I think the jacket looks much better on me. It fits me better anyway. Matilda makes it look sort of frumpy with her high and pointy boobage.
