PB, do you find that you have to shop in higher-end neighbourhoods to find the designer duds?
It helps, but I've found good stuff everywhere. I just don't have time to look that much any more and you have to go a lot to get the best stuff. There are some wealthy suburbs around Van. that aren't as picked over as the city stores, but you wouldn't believe the number of rich people who shop at thrift and consignment stores now. *sigh* Makes it hard on us poor folk!
