Dressing to the Ninety-Nines (cents that is!)

Mar 14, 2013

I have seen a lot of posts asking what to do about clothes during weight loss. I have to dress nice as I work as administrative assistant in the office of the CEO for a healthcare management corporation at an institute of higher learning. I am single and don't make a ton of money but still like to look nice. My secret??? I am obsessed with thrift store, 2nd hand stores and consigment shopping. I have been taking pictures daily to show some of the outfits I have put together for practically nothing! Not sure if it is true for all Goodwills but the Goodwills in my town have 99 cent items every Sunday. It is a challenge for me to go every Sunday and only buy items that cost 99 cents! I didn't start taking pictures until after I was in maintenance but I was able to dress appropriately every day during the weight loss stage. I didn't pay over $10 total for any of these outfits and the majority of them were less than $5.
