Today I scored a retro style short sleeve Portmans shirt for $4 (nice blue green colour which I think will compliment my eyes) and a pair of interesting shoes which are a kind of heeled loafer with a furry (not real fur) tongue insert. Its hard to describe but they fit me really well, so for $5 they were worth it.
A major plus of StVdP is that everything is clean, and I mean CLEAN. The lady who served me today said that there are two washing machines upstairs and they dryclean things too. This is fabulous, as a charity I am amazed they can afford to do this, but as long as they do then I will continue to shop there.
