I do enjoy thrifting when I'm in the mood for it. The feeling of going into a thrift store, or for that matter a Ross or TJ Maxx, and finding the diamond in the rough is exhilarating. I just have to be in the right mood to search down that item, and that honestly, rarely happens.
Of course, there are sometimes reasons I have to go shopping and let my inner woman out; like my friend's demand that her bridesmaids look nice for her wedding rehearsal. I didn't have anything I wanted to wear for it, so I dutifully trudged over to the mall in my new neck of the woods and started looking. Not much to my surprise there wasn't many shopping options here; so I walked into a JC Penney. Now, much to my surprise, it wasn't what I expected. For some reason I always thought it was like a Dillards rather than a Kohls. Sorry, JCP. I was wrong about you. (Though, in retrospect, maybe I walked into the store because I believe in their advertising, being the marketer that I am. Not many companies have the guts to do this, and then follow with this.)
Back to the point: I found this amazing dress, on sale for only $22! Honestly, I loved it when I tried it on in store but am not really impressed by the product image from the website. But hey, I've gotten many compliments. So thank you, JCP, I will be back!
