This pair of premium denim retailed for around $200, but I picked them up for just $5.50! I definitely don\u2019t mind paying these prices for designer mall brands.<\/p>\n<p>This sweater was one of my finds from the Goodwill Keystone Area Thrift Trip in September. It disappeared from my stash not long after I get home and both my girls take turns fighting over it. The olive and cream Banana Republic duster cardigan was found NWT (new with tags) for just $7.50. Retail was $148.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, comfortable, combat-style boots completed this look. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/\u200eWillow3.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3409\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3409\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/\u200eWillow3-681x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\u200eWillow3\" width=\"475\" data-size=\"1500x2256\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/\u200eWillow3-681x1024.jpg 681w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/\u200eWillow3-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/\u200eWillow3-768x1155.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/\u200eWillow3-840x1263.jpg 840w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/\u200eWillow3.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 681px) 100vw, 681px\" \/> <\/a>This pair of Guess \u201cLarry\u201d black boots is perfect for a day of walking the halls at school.
