Background:


I bought a BCBG button down black jersey material shirt in 2000 (before i worked there) when I was in highschool.  it was $130 for a shirt and all my friends thought I was nuts for spending that much on a shirt.  i did too, but it was just so perfect. 


well, in college it was my go to shirt.  i showed just the right amount of cleavage, it had awesome stripes down the front (slimming) in really cool colors (not too loud).  i always got compliments on it, always got hit on wearing it, i met my last two boyfriends in it, if i spilled at the bar i could just wipe it up, etc... it was the holy grail of shirts for me. 


well, a couple months ago i went to philly to see my college friends including my ex (we're friends).  throughout the weekend we all crashed at various people's places.  the day i had to leave, i was in a hurry and packed really fast.  well, for months (since nov.) i have been looking for that shirt and i thought FOR SURE my ex stole it from me (he would do that in a kinda funny but mean way since he knows how i am about that shirt and because he loved that shirt on me).  i just got back from the cleaners and the lady handed me some very old dry-cleaning with my current dry cleaning and my shirt was there!!!!


i can't even tell you how excited i was to see it!!!  anyways, i am a dork for typing this and posting it, but i'm sooooo happy (and wired on coffee) that i had to get it out!!

Hey, we totally understand!  Glad you got your shirt back--I HATE losing pieces of clothing.  It makes me so sad.

Yay!!! That is so awesome! It sounds like a hot shirt too. When you have a piece of clothing like that and think you lost it it's the worst! One Fall I bought 2 pairs of the same boots in different colors, 1 black 1 pink. They were pointy stilletos with ruching all down the front. I loved them. Well, we rented a storage unit in between moving and I accidentaly packed my pink boots in the unit and they were IN THERE GOOD, all the way in the back. My DH said I would have to wait till after we moved into our condo to get them, by then it was summer!! So the next winter when I finally got them out I appretiated them even more (and was glad they were still in style )
Happy for you!!
