Sunday afternoon 3:18pm. Stylista Fashionista gets news of American Apparel's 'Rummage' sale at 519 King West until 7pm. The deal is that all clothes are up to 85% off and that nothing is priced over 50 bones. We're talking $80 oversized metallic totes for $15. Heaven on Earth right? Clearly a no-brainer here....I hop on the subway and go check it out. The lineup is worse than I had imagined. An hour and a half passes by while standing outside in the line....did I mention it was pouring rain? And teenage girls are running rampant? Wah Wah Wah. So. I finally get inside, check my drenched coat and head towards the open doors at the end of the neverending hallway (at this point I'm convinced this is what Dorothy felt like when she was approaching the Wizard of Oz).........aaaaaand...............just like in the movie, the sale was not at all what it was cracked up to be. In fact, I would plainly say it sucked. Only visors, ridiculously damaged "goods" and neon terry cloth waffle shirts-(is that fabric even possible?). So before your blood boils because I didnt post a notice about the sale just remember 2 things: 1) I promise to post a note the next time I get word of a crazy sale, and 2) This sale was honestly a joke, so consider yourself lucky for not wasting your time, hopes and dry clothes. The end.
