Yesterday, I stopped by at one of my regular sample sale haunts in the garment district. And they were closed at 7pm. They were having a Free People sale. So who is Free People. It’s a clothing line that is carried by Urban Outfitters. Fortunately, I was not alone in my woes. This girl was knocking on the door to get in while I was heading up the stairs. And we exchanged a few words. She had inquire if I worked in fashion too. Which is something from my distant past. We both expressed that after working in fashion, and understanding the huge mark up on clothing that there was really no need to pay full price. It was more like we would refuse to pay full price ever again.

In the end, I caved in and went back to the sale this afternoon. And I ended up waltzing out with 5 new pieces to wardrobe.
