<\/a> I picked up the dress and sandals (as well as the bag) at the Goodwill Keystone Outlet on St. Lawrence Avenue in Reading<\/a>. Outlet shopping is much different than shopping at the standard Goodwill store, but the payoff can be much bigger. Clothing and housewares are sold by the pound; shoes are typically a flat fee (in this case $2.75). I think of it as a treasure hunt when I shop at the outlets. It\u2019s also a great place to pick up well-worn jeans to turn into cutoffs or experiment with some other clothing trends such as cutting, distressing or bleaching.<\/p>\nAfter a few moments of searching through the bins I discovered the blue, lime green and grey Calvin Klein Jeans dress. A bit more digging and the cream, yellow, red and blue straw bag became the perfect partner to hold my necessities when traveling \u2013 wallet, sunscreen, phone, sunglasses, etc… And when I got home I pulled out the wooden beaded turquoise necklace to complete the look. At $4.97, the necklace was the most expensive part of this outfit! Calvin Klein offers classic style and I enjoy finding that brand, especially at the outfit. I\u2019m estimating that I spent about $1 each for the dress and bag and the shoes were $2.75. The total for this easy, breezy summer look was less than $10. Give the outlets a try \u2013 you never know what you\u2019ll find!<\/p>\n From my closet to yours, Dress: $1.00 <\/p>\n About The Blogger<\/strong><\/p>\n Kirsten is a 40-something mom, wife and marketing professional.

<\/a>It has a racer back and a coordinating drawstring belt to define the waist. The light gauzy cotton fabric will be perfect for my vacation. A little while later, I found the leather and canvas sandals, which were also from Calvin Klein.![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Photo-Jun-16-1-44-37-PM-768x1024.jpg\")
