To Bucyrus to Vasil’s an outlet store where they manufacture blouses & pants suits. Got jacket & pants to match my russet purse I got in Cincinnati a year ago & a brown suit – $27 each. But they let you buy size 14 Jacket & size 16 pants so they fit. Also got Kathi pants & shirt. Hope they fit!
Shop very busy – Barry Reed in again & I hired him thru Christmas. Made out Thanksgiving flower order.
