one of presents,
one of thrift store bought,
one of store bought.
I would count hands-me-down as presents. Or maybe make a separate pile.
Anyway I didn't have the courage to sort that much clothes:
That's a lot. I arrived in September 2007, with 2 piece of luggage.
They were full, but mostly filled with chocolate (10 pounds!) books (about 20, I will list them, that would be an interesting post) various food, medicines, and stuff.
Some clothes. Maybe a half bag.
I didn't realize I ended up with so much clothing!
I did one pile, the store bought clothes.
Anything I bought in a store since September 2007:
Dresses were 10 $ each.
The fleece sweater I got in Switzerland, this summer with Phil, when we visited the Cern. I thought it was fun to have because it says in the back : "LHC, accelerating science". It's very nerdy. I love my geeky husband :)
Now shoes: I got the running shoes in winter 2005. But I put them anyway because I bought them in a store. 60 Euros. An investment really worth it. They are worn out now, I need new ones, especially with winter being here because it's getting cold with the holes, and slippery when it rains or snows..
The flip-flops were an emergency purchase when my sandals died last september. 10 $
White shoes I got in France this summer too, for the wedding :)
Lovely, 10 Euros!
In a store for cheap Lolitas. I was the only one without belly button showing in the store...
Everything else in the cupboard is either present, hands-me-down or thrift store.
I'll go over it an other day :)

I love thrift stores too! I would love to see a list of the books you brought with you...I had to trim down my books when I moved across the country but I imagine paring down to just 20 books must have been hard!
I am always impressed by people who have the patience for thrift stores. You can find some great deals...and treasures.
