I think everyone's had their post-Christmas clear-out as there was SO much new stock in my local charity shop this morning, spied Levi's, Jones the Bootmaker heels, Hobbs skirts etc. (Alas not my size.)

Just walked out with a Weird Fish zip up hoody. Immaculate condition. £2. Perfect for dog walking!

Anyone else found any good bargains so far this month?

Good Move leggings
Jigsaw checked cotton shirt
Day Birger et Mikkelsen long sleeve cotton shirt type thing ( has ties at the front and would look nice over a vest top in summer)

Two different teapots, one sadler & one Paragon. I don't need either but they're so pretty! 2 quid each.

Red quilted Barbour fleece lined belted jacket. It had a large black mark on the sleeve so was £6, it was ink and came out with a stain devil. Good as new!

Cherrysoup · 21/01/2023 16:18

I took a big bag of stuff down today, some new things I’ve had for a while. There was a huge stack of stuff, the lady said mine was the last donation they were accepting.

Eight crystal glasses for £4. I had to force a fiver onto them!

wickerhearth · 22/01/2023 17:19

Last week so found vintage Laura Ashley midi skirt.
I'm thinking about reselling it on Ebay, but I'm not sure if is it worth it.:/

Niftythrifter · 28/01/2023 12:06

I have just this morning bought a Zara boucle ( Chanel style) jacket with detachable collar and cuffs that are meant to look like a shirt collar and cuffs that will definitely be coming off, for a fiver. Plan on styling it with dresses at the moment and jeans if I can get it to look right.

cravingtoblerone · 28/01/2023 12:23

@ChatSamosa very jealous about the Portmeiron mugs! Do you have photos?

Niftythrifter · 28/01/2023 14:52

Topshop NWT long sleeve but thin top. I think it is stock that was possibly before Topshop went to ASOS as they had a t that I remember looking at it and considering buying it during the second lock down.

Whistles silk dress but after trying to try it on (no changing room in the charity shop I bought it from) I returned it. I already have the skirt with the same pattern etc. also from a charity shop.

Whistles silk blouse

Cath Kidston Cagoule in a bag.

Niftythrifter · 29/01/2023 17:58

Mango jumper that’s very much the grunge aesthetic

Bice little pouch for storing things in when I use my Longchamp le Pliage x Flit bag more
