omg...hammertime again? LOL

I hope they aren't really considered "classics".

I like the long vests.

Huh, I don't see any Mad Men influence there at all. 100% 80's and 90's. Those florals hurt my eyes. In fact, all of the things they showed look like they came right from the thrift store!

That's probably no coincidence... our thrifts have been seriously overrun for months now.
So, SO many people who have absolutely NO Thrift Store Etiquette . Ugh. :mad:

Since fashion tends to follow what's on the streets, and those on the streets are seriously strapped for cash... it holds true that they're doing a lot of their shopping at thrifts.

Hideous!!! I hated the stuff then and it looks worse today. Couldn't they have least tried to press and style it better?
Yep, that's my Salvation Army.
