Yesterday I found this wool jacket at Goodwill for $12.99 and was pretty excited since it looks so 40s. I'll have to work on it a bit, hem it up a few inches, take it in a teeny bit, and maybe replace the buttons with something more period, but it's a great foundation. A prime example of an article of clothing that is fairly modern (80s), but can look much older with a little work, and the right styling.
