I love this feeling. Had it big-time when I scored 10 recent Brioni suits/sportcoats a few years ago. It's been a long time since I've felt this, sadly.

Nice shirts, but please find these some nice wooden hangers. Plastic tube hangers are not as bad as wire hangers, but they're close.

I found my first Brioni! A navy blazer with those fantastic Brioni buttons. With a little tailoring it should fit my husband well. If not, it'll be up for sale here once I get my 45 days. Also, found a decent pair of shoes to replace his gawdawful Rockports that he calls his "dress shoes" FEH! Blazer $8, shoes $3.

Shoes:

Got 2 pairs of Polo Ralph Lauren (pretty sure they're made by Crockett & Jones) shoes in 9D They both need heels, but the soles have plenty of life left. Uppers show some wear, but nothing major. Insides need a little attention, but also nothing major. One is light brown. other is dark brown. Both need a good shine, which i will do tomorrow.
