Vintage Fashion Bargains Found Today @JaneConsignment

St. John Diamond Brooch Sweeter
I knew the Rummage Sale was going on today @jane on Spring Street in Princeton.  What I did not know was that it was the last day of the sale and everything was 95% off.  That is close to free in my pocketbook!  So, I went to P'town and shopped the 95% racks.  I got St. John knit sweater and skort for $11.  The Sweater has diamonds on it (not real of course, but they look good!)  Okay, photo doesn't do the diamonds justice, but you get the idea!






Next up was this amazing Oxblood Emanuel Ungaro Vintage Jacket.  All silk!  Long, past the hips and it fits great!  It perfect for Fall 2012 where Oxblood is the IN color for Fall!  Guess what I paid?  $6.75!  It was originally over $200 at consignment prices, imagine how much it was at retail.  Here is the article from the WSJ about Oxblood being the new IT color for Fall 2012!  Next Fall there will be Oxblood....  Here is picture of my fabulous new Oxblood jacket.

Okay, last but not least at all is a Eskandar Sweater that is 60% cotton, 40% cashmere and 20% silk.  What a combination.  So soft and luxurious!  It is handmade in Scotland.  It was a whopping $7.75!  It was over $250 at the original consignment price.  It originally was made for Neiman Marcus, has their label in there.  It is a sweet sea green color.  It must have cost over $400 retail at NM.  Can you believe it?  Here is the sweater:

I also got Anthropologie tweed pants for $1.25!  Bet they cost over $75 at the store!  I bought White Leather Cowboy Boots for my daughter for $1.75 and they fit!  She even said she would wear them to school.




Okay, I am bragging a bit.  But I am truly happen for spending so little and getting so much.  The hilarious part of this all is that is it going to cost me more to Dry Clean these clothes then it did to buy them.  I don't know of any Dry Cleaners that offer 95% off their prices.  I probably wouldn't go away, I am loyal to Giovanni Cleaners.  They are the best.  Everything comes back sparkling!  Giovanni's Garment Care Princeton.

Okay off to another Rummage Sale soon.  Where the bargains are sweet, the prices are low and I am a happy buyer!
