Hey guys!
Ready for another round of Shop My Closet?
Today, the focus is on winter items—jackets, coats (I may add some boots, etc. later if I get time).
From the proceeds of all of our previous Shop My Closets, we were able to send a $500 (!!!!) check to more than cover all of Sarah, our PCM blog sponsor child’s, expenses for an entire year (it takes $420/yr).
Praise Jesus! That is so stinkin’ awesome, and I am so grateful to y’all for your generosity!
I’ll post an updated pic of Sarah that I received in the mail very soon and I will also share with you guys as soon as we receive a letter back from her (we sent ours back at the first of November).
By the way, if you have participated in supporting Sarah and want her to know that you’re praying for her, you can email me a picture of you and/or your family, and I will include it with our next care package. Outside of the actual words that you write to them, they love seeing those pictures more than anything.
As always 25% of today’s proceeds will go to PCM to further the incredible work they are doing to help orphans and pastor’s children in Uganda (if you’re not familiar with why we support them, you can read more from past posts here), but instead of going toward a specific child, this money will go to help all the unsponsored orphans (by buying them necessities like soap and little treats like suckers).
Here’s how this all works:
PLEASE read everything at least once! It’ll help me (and you) out so much! Thanks! : )
CONTACT:
Send all bids or questions to shopabbiescloset{at}gmail{dot}com
PLEASE put the # of the item{s} you are interested in in the header of your email!
I have disabled the comments for this post so that I make sure to see all of your responses in my inbox
SHIPPING:
(This is strictly for U.S. residents. If my awesome Canadian readers see something they can’t live without, we can probably make it work, but I’ll have to do a little shipping research. I’m afraid I won’t be shipping outside of the U.S./Canada, though. Sorry!).
PAYMENT:
PRICING:
“BIDDING:”
1. The ITEM #(s)
and
2. The amount you would like to pay (assuming the starting amount I’ve listed).
I won’t be responding to specific bids for at least one full day…maybe more, depending on the level of interest in a specific item (unless you have a question), at which point I will assess how many people are interested in the same items.
I will then contact each person once with a chance to “up their price” from their original bid. Whoever places the highest bid at that point wins the item.
Obviously, for those items that only get one person’s interest, the item sells for their original offer.
**I am doing this for one reason only: Since I’m donating 25% of the proceeds to:
…I’ll shamelessly take as much money as we can raise from this little shindig. : )
TIME FRAME: I will likely ship the items in bulk once I know for sure which are items belong where and have everything packed up, so please be patient with me. I so appreciate it!
1.
BRAND: Moda
SIZE: Small
CONDITION: Perfect (worn no more than a 1/2 dozen times)
MORE INFO: 100% genuine leather! This jacket runs true to size, except for in the chest area, which is slightly roomier than most smalls. I absolutely adore this jacket, but the fit is just a little off on me, which keeps it from being worn as often as something this cute should.
PRICE: $30
2.
BRAND: Uniform
SIZE: Small
CONDITION: Excellent (no stains, no tears, no wear)
MORE INFO: Runs true-to-size for the high end of the small-range and is not super-fitted
PRICE: $8
3.
BRAND: Forever 21
SIZE: Small
CONDITION: Excellent
MORE INFO: Runs small especially through the shoulders and chest
PRICE: $7
4.
BRAND: Juicy Couture
SIZE: Medium
CONDITION: Very good
MORE INFO: Fits more like a small. There’s a slit in the sleeve that you can see in the pic above which could easily be repaired with a needle/thread
PRICE: $15
5.
BRAND: GAP
SIZE: Small
CONDITION: Very good
MORE INFO: No stains, no rips, but the cloth does show a teensy bit of wear (not noticeable unless you’re examining it closely for wear)
PRICE: $8
6.
BRAND: GAP KIDS
SIZE: 10/12
CONDITION: Excellent
MORE INFO: This jacket fits like a size x-small/small (with a narrow fit through the shoulders since it’s actually a girls’ jacket) and would be great for a small build or for a preteen girl
PRICE: $7
7.
BRAND: Black Rivet
SIZE: Medium
CONDITION: Excellent
MORE INFO: I’ve never figured out whether this coat is “dark navy” or “light black,” but it works with either color scheme. I wish I could have found the pics I was looking for of my wearing this coat because it is so cute on even though it looks a bit schlumpy on the mannequin. It’s a great layering coat since it accommodates sweaters underneath, but it works well by itself too.
PRICE: $15
8.
BRAND: Jordache
SIZE: Small
CONDITION: Excellent
MORE INFO: A little narrow through the shoulders; it has some fraying/distressing on the edges of the sleeves, etc., but it’s intentional and has a fun look.
PRICE: $6
9.
BRAND: ?? (Forgot to look before posting, but it’s not one I recognize
SIZE: Small
CONDITION: Very good
MORE INFO: Runs small (it’s more like an x-small) and would work best for petite frames/small-chested folks. It has a really fun, boho/Anthro-esque feel
PRICE: $7
10.
BRAND: Isaac Mizrahi for Target
SIZE: Small
CONDITION: Perfect (I just wore it for the pics, and it still has the tags on)
MORE INFO: Runs slightly large through the torso for a small, but that’s kind of the style.
PRICE: $10
11.
BRAND: GAP
SIZE: 8
CONDITION: Excellent
MORE INFO: The color is a soft olive green (NOT army green)
PRICE: $8
I AM NOT SURE IF YOU HAVE CLOSED THE BIDDING ON CLOSET ITEMS, IF NOT I WOULD LIKE TO BID $15.00 FOR ITEM #2 UNIFORM TAN JACKET. THANK YOU
