Last weekend I visited a few charity shops in my local area and it was definitely a success. Not every trip is like this but that's the fun of preloved shopping, it has it's ups and downs! I thought I would share a bit about all the items I picked up in a short blog post.
Floral Dress - Primark (New)
I picked up this dress in Age UK Maidstone for £2! For a new dress I thought this was a bargain and the colours are perfect for summer. It's exciting when you see brand new items in charity shops just be aware that they may have been donated due to fit/style. If an item runs small people may donate them new rather than returning so that's something to keep in mind. This was
a great fit and I can't wait to wear it when the weather heats up!
Denim Jacket - H&M & Bag - New
This is a men's denim jacket I picked up for only £1 and a brand new bag for £5 in Scope Orpington. The jacket I plan to customise in some way and the bag is perfect for some upcoming concerts I have. These were fantastic finds and for a small shop I was very impressed to find 2 things I loved.
Cargo Trousers - Asos
I got these trousers for £1 in the Demelza outlet Maidstone. I would highly recommend this shop for everything from clothes to bric-a-brac, it's fantastic. I was so happy to see these in my size, I recently purchased a lighter pair from scope and I love them so I was very happy to get these for only £1.
Black and White Shorts - TU
I decided to get these shorts as I think they would be fantastic in the summer with a graphic t-shirt, particularly for my holiday. These were again only £1 from the Demelza outlet and in fantastic condition.
Red Dress - Boohoo
I picked up this dress in The St Christophers Centre shop in Orpington for £1, most of their clothes are £1 and you can find some fantastic pieces just like this dress. I am not sure where I am going to wear it just yet but I'm sure I'll find the right occasion.
Mom Jeans - Boohoo
I decided to pick these up as they are similar to a pair I already own that no longer fit me, so I thought I would get these so I can ger rid of the other pair. They were also £1 from St Christophers Centre and were a great find!
It was great to share the bits I picked up recently and hopefully there will be a few more of these in the future, what's your favourite recent charity shop find?
