Yes, you guessed it; it’s another Charity Shop Finds post
from me! The urge for bargain hunting remains strong as I try to seek out all
of the bargains to be found on this island before heading back to the mainland
(England) next week. This post features a few things I've found over the past
few weeks…
This cute vintage button down dress was £4. It was
originally a size 16, unflattering, above-ankle length dress so I whipped the
sewing machine out and took in the sides and shortened it to a more flattering
length. I absolutely love the print and the style of this dress (reminiscent of
some of Motel’s recent cuts) - it will look great with some low denier tights
and black boots. (Excuse the poor ironing).
This
silver engraved collar necklace was only £2 and has absolutely beautiful detailing which makes
me think it’s probably vintage costume jewellery- perfect for minimal
accessorising.
As we all know, winter is now fully on the way and making
its presence loud and clear. Never one to shy away from knitwear (more like run
round a shop with armfuls) I bought two quite similar high necked wool jumpers
in a deep red and cream for £4 and £2. The red one will be great for December
and cream really does go with anything so will come in handy for layering. I
also got this grey silvery cropped eyelash jumper for £4 (originally from Miss
Selfridge) which is on trend for some 90s glam and will be something a little
different to my usual leather jacket cover up for evening drinks.
Other recent finds include a See by Chloe blouse £3, boucle pencil skirt £4, black
work trousers £2, boxed Pretty Polly stockings £2 (so expensive normally and
they ladder so easily!), gold plunge top £3, blue sparkly backless dress £3.
