Ghetto Cinderella

Right now, there's a prince scouring the neighborhood for a very specific girl. In her closet will be a size 9 ladies pump from payless. Right shoe only.

I hope this didn't happen in winter

First post

So I saw some boxer shorts hanging from a fencepost one day while I was walking through west broadway, and it occurred to me that I probably should have taken a picture. Sadly, they were gone the next day, but the seed was planted. A blogger account and a clever name later, clothes on the peg is born.

The aim here is to document the presence of clothing laying on (or next to or above) the streets of Winnipeg and speculate wildly about how it got there. Feel free to send your own pictures in, along with some backstory, if you care to.

To begin, a brassiere. Found on sherbrook street, north of broadway.
