Shuddup and keep draping, kid!

Respect you Mummy, kid! (OK. I said it. Someone was going to anyway)

Tut, tut… how did you get so spoiled?

Right, pouncingtiger, I was! LOL.

Mummy has a hard enough time making all those ends meet.

I don’t know what’s getting into kids nowadays…. I mean those-a-days.

I blame wrap.(Do you think that’s tomb much?)

Susan, you are sharp as always!!

Nobody wants handmedowns, but handmedowns from the undead are just…ew.

Kid looks like Gaddafi.

What do HAND ME DOWNS have to do with a mummy?

Oh my, this is to uncommon . . . . let’s wrap it up folks . . . ☻

The kid got a Ra deal. It’s just not pharoh.

But they’re to die for!!

I think you mean… but MUM!

As a kid even in HS (early 50s) my parents bought me stuff from resale shops including shoes-I had choice but had to buy there. My first HS job (bank teller) I went to Joseph’s in Oak Park and bought a pair of heels with copper heels and reptile skin (probably printed) leather, but they were fancy and new! I loved them and probably wore them all of 2 times before giving them away. I buy some furniture at resales now but never clothes (or upolstered furniture that I can’t easily recover).
