Thrifting my own storage/garage

O-oh my god! My mom has the craziest amount of vintage clothes I've ever seen.

I've always loved 80s fashion with a little bit of the 70s on the side, but this woman! Crazy colours, vests, rompers, jumpsuits, minidresses, blouses, cardigans, fjkljkdl;♥

The only sad thing about a lot of these got water-damaged. Not beyond restoration, but it makes it nasty to try them on.

That and two pieces I loved had gotten to the hands of rats when they were in one of those storages. *sad* We couldn't salvage them...

We had only gotten through half of our storage closet, so the other half and the garage still have some tasty treasure. THIS IS AMAZING. I'm telling this woman that anything she or I don't want/can't fit into, we need to sell on eBay. It's fantastic stuff!

Oh and I'm so sorry I'm offline a lot again, F-list. You all should know how much I love you, but...I got really addicted to trying to beat Phoenix Wright when I'm not working or whatever. ;~; I'm almost halfway finished with Trials and Tribulations so I can finally start Apollo Justice.

DSAFKL;H; WHY DID I WAKE UP SO EARLY? I DON'T HAVE TO BE AT WORK UNTIL 8.

Yeah, if not by my own washing machine, then we know a good cleaner who managed to save some other damaged clothes. It's all good. [:

My mom didn't want to throw her old clothes out. I don't blame her, though. A lot of these are still brand new with tags left on them. If not then in really good condition. She was and still sort of is a compulsive shopper. D8
