Awesome Goodwill find

[51st_century]

Every once in a while you just find something awesome at a thrift store, like the 10th Doctor suit I found a couple weeks ago. Today, I hit Goodwill, and I was looking for vests. (I am sorely lacking in work-appropriate vests that are both not-too-big and not-too-feminine.) I found the best vest. I mean, it's not the snappiest, smartest looking one

Okay, okay, brace yourself: I also have a plaid flannel vest I wore during the winter.

I know! Shocking.

shocking indeed! we are mightily shocked.

you know what else is shocking? i watched an episode of project runway. sort of by accident. (SHHHH.) and you know what ELSE is shocking? one guy made a couture gown out of YELLOW PLAID COTTON. it was worth it just for that.

I will hereby cease to use the word 'shock'.

Can I use it, then?

Shockshockshockity shock shock.

There, now it has no meaning anymore!

Yellow plaid cotton, you say? Interesting. Can't see plaid being "couture"... but I suppose there's a first for everything.

So even women have to tuck in their shirts? What about tailored shirts that look fine untucked? Sheesh. Picture of the vest please?

I'll have to get one. Might take a day or two to get round to it.

There's a sort of grudging allowance for certain types of shirts to be untucked. The whole thing was stupid.
