Spotted at my local Goodwill today

I was browsing my local Goodwill store today and came across these bags. The g0yards were $11.04 each and the Di0r was $14.04. I was rather surprised to see them there! They also had a beautiful pair of Valent!no sling back heels that I’d have 100% bought if they would have fit me.

New Sweaters! A Review

Purchased Items: Black Cc Women's Knit Cardigan and white 3D monogram Elvee sweater
Factory: Unknown (I didn’t ask).

Seller: Macy
Contact Info: Last four of WA 5204
Price: Cc sweater $105, Elvee sweater $85 Shipping by FedEx $40

Timeline:
Purchased 08/25, PSPs received 09/02, GL given 09/02, Package received 09/10.

The Details: This was just my second rep clothing purchase and my first with Macy. It was a great experience! Macy answered my questions thoroughly and asked for measurements for the factory for sizing. The box was packed/taped securely and inside the FedEx packaging Macy had her own packaging to further protect the sweaters. Inside that the sweaters were in their own Ziplock bags, and the Cc one had a little white bag with a black tie on it. I don't know what that is for. The sweaters are so beautiful and fit like a dream. I cannot get over how heavy and high quality the Cc rep sweater is! The buttons are stunning and feel expensive. This is a lovely sweater that I will get years of use out of. The Elvee is also really beautiful. I wanted a basic color that I could dress up or down and I think it will be perfect for that. The tone-on-tone 3D monogram is nice, it’s subtle and gives it a great look. It will be nice in the winter with a collared shirt layered underneath. Note- I didn’t notice anything showing through the sweater, it’s a good weight. It’s not thin so you wouldn’t have to wear a shirt under it.

Overall Impression: I am very pleased with this purchase and will shop with Macy again. The sweaters are lovely and she was spot on with the sizes. I have very sensitive skin and neither is scratchy or feel cheap. The quality is so good, and I know these two basics will be a part of my fall/winter wardrobe for years. 10/10

Lightweight Jacket and Sweater Review

Items purchased: Bbry lightweight jacket and a CeeDee sweater

Unknown factory.

Seller: Yuyu

Contact (last four of WA): 9262

Paid 8/17

PSP 8/25

Shipped 8/27

Received 9/2

$70 sweater, $95 jacket, $35 fed ex shipping USD

I had a great shopping experience and wanted to share. This is my first review so I hope I’m doing this correctly. After looking through Yuyu’s catalog I found several sweaters and a few jackets I liked. I reached out and found Yuyu prompt with communication and answered my questions completely. Her prices seemed reasonable so I decided to order this adorable BBry jacket and CeeDee sweater for my first time.  I’ve never even ordered a bag yet, but I read a lot and have learned so much here from you all so I knew what the process was and what to expect.

I was worried about sizing and Yuyu worked with me on that. She asked for my height, weight and shoulder to shoulder measurement and took that to the factory and they recommended a medium, so that’s what I ordered.  As you can see, the sweater is too small.  I will order large in the future when I order sweaters. I’ll probably get rid of it because even though it isn’t uncomfortable, it looks too small on me. The jacket is sized perfectly, I love it! The sleeves are the perfect length and the details on it are lovely. I‘m planning to order again with her, the experience was great for my first time.

Yuyu knows I am writing a review but I have not nor will not get anything in exchange, the opinions are my own.

Hello all, I had my gall bladder removal on March 19th and the surgery went well. Prior to the surgery I had an ultrasound which determined no stones, but the HIDA test showed that my gall bladder was functioning at 11%. Before the surgery I would get sick (vomiting and diarrhea) when I had fatty or oily foods, pretty typical stuff. Since the surgery I have gotten sick at least 3 times more often and my diet has not changed. I haven't gone crazy with fats or oils. I am also limited in my diet due to having alpha-gal (allergy to mammal from a tick bite) so I'm already eating a mostly vegan, low fat and mostly plant based diet. Things I could eat before are causing me to get sick. A small amount of mayo in a tuna sandwich (I am assuming it's the mayo) causes me to get sick. A bit of scrambled eggs with toast and plant based butter = sick.

I talked to my primary care doctor yesterday and she advised to give it more time. She said there are medications that she can prescribe if the diarrhea and vomiting become too disruptive but she believes my system is still adjusting to the gall bladder being removed. In the meantime, I'm terrified to eat anything. I'm starting to lose a lot of hair, suffering from leg/muscle cramps, and not sleeping well.

Any advice would be great.
