My mum instilled in my sisters and I a passion for opshopping. While I admit I dont have enough patience to sort through all of the racks and inspect each piece of clothing to find the truly unique, every now and then I crack it. Some people get unsettled at the thought of wearing second-hand items ("What if someone died in that top"? and other misgivings), but not I! I've picked up a Fendi bag, gorgeous leather shoes, an Italian wool coat, and so much more all for about $10 a pop. Here are some of my latest purchases that I paid around $3 each for:
I pair this with a round straw hat, thin tan belt and tan wedges for autumn chic.
I keep this skirt light 'n bright with a crisp white shirt, dark brown leather belt and nude peep toes.
This black and white pleated skirt is something special that I found at a market on the side of the road. It is a French brand and when you separate the pleats there is a picture of a little French town running the length of the hem. Beautiful! I like to wear it with neutrals and a splash of colour like a fuschia scarf or a mint green chunky bracelet.
What a joy to read! I love all your beautiful op shop pieces Raihi. You have such a funky little style going on..love it xo
