One Women's Treasure is Another Women's Treasure


I personally know women who are "Shopaholics" that most likely will be buying front row tickets to the new movie Confessions of A Shopaholic by Sophia Kinsella. They buy for various mental and emotional reasons soothing they're aches and pains with what the retailers like to call "Retail Therapy." Filling their closets with the same pair of True Religion Jeans just in three different shades of denim, re buying the same style dress just to find that she has it already in 5 different colors. Hoarding designer shoes, handbags and accessories. These women's closets are like finding a treasure box when your a fashionista on a budget. My sister who was making a killing in the real estate market two years ago. She was career bound, buying whatever her heart desired from very expensive clothing to houses cars, fine dining and more. These days she's a single mom in transition. With this transition she leaves behind Trina Turk silk skirts, True Religion Jeans, Prada clutches,
$400-&600.00, shoes dresses and more for me to discover and pass this precious treasure to my lovely " Recessionistas." Over the next couple of weeks I will be adopting these treasures and posting them under the phrase "Selling It" "Loving It" "Loaning It." Selling It will be the new, gently used, vintage finds we will have for sell. "Loving It will be our higher priced auction pieces. And Loaning It is our mid-higher priced items that we will be loaning on a weekly basis. Trust me this is a fabulous way to turn a thousand dollar outfit into fashionable fortune perfect for the budget conscious diva.
