get shirrrty.

Lame play on words, I am aware.

This was the result of a little charidee shop escapade today.
 

It is unreal how cheap as chips these places are. Usually, I can never be bothered to rummage through all the crap to dig out the proverbial gold. Sooo many people big them up but the concept of wearing someone's dead grandmother's god-knows-how-old blouse has never appealed. I temporarily got over that today. Yess, I am still very much representing the collared shirt trend. Until something better comes along, I shall continue my collection.

No news, bored and skint, back in the real north (Newcastle), at home for my ridiculously long Easter holidays.

Hiya new followers, giveaway coming soon pinky promise.

  14. The white blouse with the bow is a dream. You picked up so many gems!

    I need to adorn my closet with more sweet blouses. I find that I gravitate towards dresses, and skirts, and am left with nothing to wear..

    Love your blog*

    kisses, hope to hear from you

  18. The first one is an especially great find! The charity shops around me are PANTS...verry over-priced, which I wouldn't mind if it were for decent stuff I guess!

  24. Great finds! It's true that you never know where these clothes do come from, but that's what mysterious about it :) /but yeah, sometimes, it's better not to think about it, you're right :D/
    The price and the originality are worth it ;)

  45. I love that floral shirt, so pretty....=D

    ReplyDelete
  46. Those are some great finds! I grew up wearing thrifted clothes and hand me downs so it doesn't much bother me. Plus, it's so much better for the environment to buy recycled clothes. The collars on all of those are so pretty!
