I\u2019ve talked about that store before and they sell a \u201ccurated assortment of women\u2019s apparel and accessories\u201d and are based out of Philadelphia. While I paid $12 for this jacket at the Goodwill (which is more than I would usually pay) in Morgantown, PA, I knew the brand was high quality and the moto-style jacket will be in style for a long time. After doing a little research, this jacket would have originally sold for around $148. She could layer this over a short sleeve t-shirt or light dress in warmer weather or add a sweater and a scarf in the winter<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve discussed jeans here plenty of times on the blog, so Victoria wore her own favorite denim, but you can always get brand name and premium jeans for around $5.50 to $6.50 at most Goodwill stores.<\/p>\n<p>The leopard print sheer blouse is from Banana Republic and I picked it up for under $1.00 at the Goodwill Outlet on St. Lawrence Avenue in Reading (Mt. Penn). <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Blog16.jpeg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2667\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Blog16.jpeg\" alt=\"Blog16\" width=\"475\" height=\"665\" data-size=\"656x918\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Blog16.jpeg 656w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Blog16-214x300.jpeg 214w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/> <\/a>And the coordinating leopard print\/gold studded sandals from Franco Sarto still had the tags from TJ Maxx on them and they sold for $34.99.
