Found it today at the Sal on Kensington Avenue.  Was also at Village Thrift today, and found a pair of vintage shoes which would complement this vile abomination nicely.

Also found a Fossil handbag for $7!

My dad had a leisure suit in baby blue.  Not sure which of the two would have been worse. 
But I did like the bag.

Ha ha, great suit, it would make a great Halloween costume and with the shoes too!  Speaking of that, I bought a vintage woman's brocade dress and matching long jacket with rhinestone buttons for $5.99 the other day at the SA.  They had it in the Halloween section as I guess one of the employees though it would be good dress-up.  It is actually a pretty collectible piece of vintage clothing though with the tag still on too!

Nice fossil bag too.  My daughter came home with this "The Sak" bag that she bought at the SA today for 5 bucks:

Her is in new condition too.

That suit and shoes reminds me of Lenord Nimoy doing an In Search of epsiode.  Don't know why, just does.
