My Sister’s Closet

This weekend I had the good fortune to find the newest location of “My Sister’s Closet” in my UTC neighborhood in San Diego. I was out for a casual walk and some errands and came across this fabulous shop. When I walked in the door I was greeted by a beautiful Louis Vuitton handbag to my left and some stunning patterned wrap dresses in the center of the entrance. This isn’t your typical thrift store– it’s well-organized and merchandised beautifully. The handbags hugged the walls on strategically lit shelves and the shoes were nestled on neatly arranged racks & all arranged by size.
Did I mention this place is huge?? I think it was a former Circuit City store or something warehouse-y like that. Huge! There is tons of merchandise– everything from sweaters, jackets, formal attire, suits, dresses, work-out clothes, blouses, jeans (a great selection of jeans, by the way) and fur coats. Yes– I saw real fur coats– and plenty of super cute faux fur too.
The lovely ladies working behind the counter generously offered me a rolling cart to assist with my shopping. Later, I did try on a few jackets in the well-lit and comfy dressing room area. The best find for me this weekend— a cute jacket for $14. Lucky for me this place is close to where I live– I can shop often!
And what a great name! My sister’s closet. I used to live close to a store similar to this. Jackets were my favorite thing to buy. Some women like shoes, I like jackets. I blame it on the fact I used to live in Alaska. You really never could have too many! Ha! Happy used shopping. Posts like this make me happy!
