Today was Retro Day at Taylor's school. He wanted to be a gangster from the thirties or forties. So.....Sunday afternoon we decided to hit the thrift stores in Dallas. The first store we visited had absolutely nothing even remotely resembling gangster attire. We were especially disappointed because between the thirty minute drive there and back, we had wasted a hour of our already limited time! Then, as we were driving back to Waxahachie, I remembered BonTon in Forreston, Texas!!! Gee....what was the matter with me? I have posted about BonTon before. (see here)http://lifeingingerbreadtown.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
As we drove to BonTon, I felt my adrenalin pumping. There was no doubt that amazing retro fashion awaited us there. I knew Taylor would find the perfect gangster outfit among the racks and racks of vintage clothes and accessories at the BonTon treasure chest!!
