Spring Forward with Housing Works Thrift Shops

This past weekend I returned to my favorite Housing Works Thrift Shop in NYC (23rd St and 3rd Ave).



This store has a great selection of blazers, jackets and coats!



I fell for this lovely Tahari Trench Coat!

Housing Work's Spring Preview Setup from Housing Works on Vimeo.

Check out what goes into a Spring Preview at Housing Works Thrift Shops

If you can be sure to check out some of these events. Its going to be amazing. All the proceeds go toward the fight against AIDS and ending homelessness in NYC. The lines are insane so get there early. I'll be attending a few of these events to stay tuned for my fashion STEELES!
Check out my previous housing works experiences HERE and HERE!!!
For more information on these events or to volunteer, check out their website
