The Kooples silk shirt for £12
Brora fair isle cardigan £8- This in another colour way www.broraonline.com/uk/wool-fair-isle-cardigan-topaz-slc8232hm2363?queryID=e2b4e5c75c383e4cf0842b3c260ac0f6

I passed up a Brora cashmere cardigan for the same price that I bought the wool cardigan for. I also tried a Baukjen shirt because it was too big and too fussy.

@Jins @Christmasisshit some good bargains there!

Sounds like a good rummage @Jins . Do you have any photos so that we can live vicariously through your finds ? 🥿👘👗

I misremembered the price of the Radley. It was £4.99
Will photo the DMs later, the Tevas won’t emerge for a while and I’ve passed the Hotter mules on.
I had another bargain today - a killtech wind proof, waterproof coat for £9.99.

Yesterday. A pair of leopard print Russell& Bromley slip ons for £1!!

This morning x2 Guernsey jumpers , 1 red , 1 blue -£3 each . They are quite itchy though 😂

A nice find @Jins . When it is a SH find, £4.99 is still a bargain for a leather bag. Enjoy it! Can't believe that you found DMs in your size. I'm a size 41 and so seldom are shoes in that size in SH shops.

Merino wool coat for £5. It's beautiful.

@HorribleHisTories15 I’m quite lucky with shoes as I’m a 36/37. I often find barely used but outgrown shoes in the children’s section.

Lifetime bargains have been an Aspinal laptop bag for £7. Clearly the woman behind the counter who claimed to know her stuff with pricing actually didn’t as she’d missed this beauty. I also got a beautiful cherry red Osprey bag for £8.99 but it needs a lot of restoration work and I haven’t got round to it yet. Earlier this year I had a pair of immaculate Hotter tourist sandals in gold and a pair of equally immaculate black Hotter brogues for £10 for the pair.

I’m always on the lookout for lovely fabrics, sewing patterns, branded items that need repair and shoes.

pics of DMs finally

An Aquascutum duffel coat in a gorgeous rust colour in a charity shop in Teddington. Go to Teddington people.

Nice nice nice boots @Jins ! Well done on being £ wise! There are lots of videos on YouTube about leather bag restoration.

There are some really useful resources. I restored a couple of mine before biting the bullet and sorting a very tired but genuine Mulberry I picked up on eBay. Won’t be doing that again - the leather is very thick!

Just this morning:

Jones black leather cross body bag - £4.00
New H&M leopard print dress - £7.00
Two books which are on my Amazon Wish List - £1.50 for the two

Also, earlier in the week, a black glittery A-line dress (new) - £10.00

Boden current season long sleeved dress. Unworn. £5.

The White Company grey long cardigan £5.

Large Cashmere pashmina £2.

Will be in Cornwall next week,Bude has amazing Charity Shops.

Currently wearing a funky kenzo sweatshirt (£7) and got teen ds the matching t shirt (£6). Must have been a kenzo fan donating.

Frequently find nice coats Boden etc for DTwins all about £3 or less.

I don't tend to look at the brands and try and nab a bargain on what it would have cost value wise. I pick what looks nice on me and the family. I've got some lovely jumpers which I paid like £1 for, and always receive compliments. They all seem to be unheard of Spanish and Lithuanian brands, but absolutely lovely.

Emporio Armani blazer - £8 and even though it's a little faded I get so many compliments when I wear it even though the label is v much on the inside!
