I've been searching for a new wool coat since last winter but really didn't want to pay $300+ for it. Here in Saskatchewan fall is chilly and winters are fridge, so having just a cute coat isn't really an option, you need warmth. Early this fall I received an email from threadUP and it said that they were now shipping to Canada. I had read about this consignment website on other blogs but knew that it was a US company and usually shipping, customs, exchange rate, etc. just don't make sense for me. I quickly started browsing the site for a wool coat to see what would come up. Quickly I was able to weed through what I was interested in and this little plaid number caught my eye. It was:
- And the price was $32 with shipping!!!!!!
Once I order it, it was literally days before it was on my doorstep in cute packaging. I unpacked it, anxiously and crossed my fingers that it wouldn't disappoint. It didn't!!!! It was in MINT condition. The pockets were still sewed up and I don't think it had ever been worn. I've had so many complements on it over the last month and I absolutely love it.
My final thoughts, I wouldn't use threadUP for basics, I would highly recommend them if you are looking for unique or higher end items such as purses, coats, or dresses for a special occasion. I also noticed they have children's items which might be worth a look through as well. This was not in any way a sponsored post, just my thoughts. I hope you all had a lovely Halloween and happy weekend!
