The Garment District Haul

On Thursday, I went into Cambridge with two of my friends, enjoyed a lovely vegan meal at Veggie Galaxy, and then went shopping at the pay per pound section of The Garment District. I got 4 items (I didn't have a whole lot of luck) at the absurdly low price of $2.70. I love pay per pound secondhand stores! Here are the four items I picked up.

groovy sun tee (to be reconstructed)


80s sweater vest


Express sheer striped top


purple/blue XL cardigan

  1. Great Pieces!
    I saw you commented on my DIY, and so I came to check out your blog, and I saw this! I actually go to school in Boston (I'm from Maine, so I'm there for break at the moment), are you from the area as well?

  2. Such good items you find! Here in Portugal, the second stores aren't so common. Now there are the flea markets, which in the last I parcipate, selling!

    Kisses and continuation of a nice weekend

  4. I never have any luck at thrift stores and flea markets for clothes! Household stuff, definitely. Shoes/bags/accessories? Totally! Never clothes. I may need to travel to other places lol.

  5. pay per pound sounds like so much fun! great for RTW but also for mashing it up with some sewing/studding/whatever. im going to google around for some pay by the pounds in NYC.
