I spent a summer in a seminar at Northwestern (your alma mater, right?) and the thrifts were fantastic. The combination of a transient population of wealthy students in a wealthy town--incredible stuff. In fact, an artist friend who was visiting chose to go thrifting with me rather than go to the Art Institute. In my experience, the best thrifts are in Evanston IL.

I guess that happens a lot because I'll see a pair of sandals I love and they turn out to be Prada and I can't buy them...but somehow it wouldn't be fair to have a magazine full of stuff that someone already found and snapped up off ebay.
