recycling clothing among cc members


Recommended Posts

We are home from our cruise and I'll be posting some items here in the next week or two. What a thrill to come home to a box from Marie. A top I had hoped for (it will look stunning under my work suits) and a surprise dress!

 

Marie, you are one in a bazillion!

 

A picture of me in my "Marie" dress along with my mom is posted on the Post a Pic of your Dress thread.

 

You are welcome. See you soon.

 

xoxo

 

Marie

Just wanted to wish you all Merry Christmas! I had planned to list some dresses on here to pass on but another opportunity came up. A church about an hour away burned to the ground. They have insurance to rebuild but what they can't replace was all the formal dresses they had collected to take to Appalachia for girls to wear to their prom. A local friend put the word out and we were able to collect 87 in 5 days. I donated a surprising 12 myself. Who knew I had some at the back of the closet???;) It such a wonderful feeling to give to such a great cause.

Wishing you all peace and joy in 2014!

Received a great pick me up on a day I'm not feeling well, package from Marie

 

I wasn't sure about the color but Larry wanted me to get it. I have to say he has good taste because I love the dress and color on me! I'm going to have to hem it, it's a tad long even with heels. I think it will be great for our Feb cruise.

 

Thanks Marie and Merry Christmas![ATTACH]295964[/ATTACH]

 

That gown and color looks absolutely gorgeous on you. You wear it well!!!!

Here are a few things available, if anyone is interested. Please email me at magandab at aol.com I'm not sure why I can only get a link, not the actual photo. I'm posting the way I always do. Oh well, it works.

 

Still available, two-piece dress by Teddi, size 10

Betsy & Adam, size 4, black evening gown. Gorgeous! Michelle sent me this one after I misread her post and thought it was a six!

Bobeau black palazzo pants. Silky 100% rayon. Never worn

Alternative Earth, size medium, soft knit dress. Marie sent me this one, but it's just a bit clingier than I like. Though, it was super comfy.

 

http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a3cc09b3127ccef4ad4df86dd400000030O00CbN2jRu5YsQe3nwE/cC/f%3D0/ls%3D00101974470620131228184918345.JPG/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D550/ry%3D400/

 

Best Society dress, size medium. I wore this for a dinner in a specialty restaurant. The skirt is slit way up, but there is a short (mid-thigh) skirt underneath.

Jennifer Lopez white blouse, size Small. Never fit me right, but super light, super cool for hot climate cruises.

 

http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a3cc09b3127ccef4ad94f42d2c00000030O00CbN2jRu5YsQe3nwE/cC/f%3D0/ls%3D00101974470620131228184918223.JPG/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D720/ry%3D480/

 

Y&S metallic shoulder/cross body evening bag. Never used this.

 

http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a3cc09b3127ccef4adb5a66df600000030O00CbN2jRu5YsQe3nwE/cC/f%3D0/ls%3D00101974470620131228184918924.JPG/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D720/ry%3D480/

 

Green Isaac Mizrahi dress, size 10. Super flattering. I wore this on formal night and got loads of compliments.

Casual long sundress from Territory Ahead, Size Large. Much more flattering on, than on the hanger.

JS Collections dark blue gown, size 16. Lisa sent me this one for my mom to wear but it needed to be shortened quite a bit and with all that went on this year, that never happened.

 

Tadashi Shoji gown that Marie sent to me. The size tag is missing, but I'd put it at a large 8 or a small 10. Gorgeous!

That's it for now, but I'm in closet-cleaning mode, so stay tuned.
