thriftshop
“The reality of being a regular person going to Congress is that it’s really expensive to get the business clothes I need for the Hill,” wrote the Congresswoman-elect on November 10th. “So I’m going thrift shopping tomorrow.” "All of a sudden I have a new job that requires a particular type of dress. I gained weight with my Covid situation with steroids so now I basically need a new wardrobe. I cannot afford to go to the big name stores to do that so I am going to shop resale and thrift,” said Cori Bush, Congresswoman-elect for Missouri's 1st District , who gets the fashion nod of approval from campaign volunteer Jessie Thornton for a winter coat purchase on Wednesday, Nov. 11, 2020, at Twice Blessed Resale shop in Dutchtown. Bush leaves for orientation in D.C. soon and shopped for blazers, coats, shoes for her trip. Photo by Laurie Skrivan, lskrivan@post-dispatch.com
