Lady luck of fashion has smiled on me many times. I've walked away with some amazing designer items, for a bargain.
- Four Coach bags (one was given as a gift)
- Cole Haan shoes
- vintage Pappagallo bag and covers
- Whiting and Davis silver mesh bag
- 2 pairs of Ferragamo shoes
- Diane von Furstenberg dress (given as a gift)

When I went to the thrift store where I found the nude Ferragamos, I was initially looking for jewelry. After striking out in the jewelry department, I wandered down the shoe aisle and saw the nude cap toe pumps. I was excited because after seeing these photos, I decided I needed a pair of cap toe pumps. Lucky me, I found two pairs and they are Ferragamos! I paid $9.98 for the nude pair and $13.99 for the red and black suede pair. That's usually more than I would pay for thrift store shoes but these are barely worn, well cared for, Italian leather shoes, that originally sold for around $500 a pair. I couldn't walk away. Now I have two very different pairs of cap toe pumps that I purchased for about $24. A bargain considering that's what shoes can go for at Target or Payless.

I can't wait to style them up similar to these looks. I've always loved pairing my boucle jackets with jeans and this will amp up the lady like factor even further. I hope you enjoy your weekend.
Happy Thrifting Real Girls!
