Recent Treasures

These two beauties were the best treats from last weeks opshop round up. This jumpsuit is the business. Srsly. That hat though. My newest wardrobe staple. So good. Together, a collective $3.50. Definitely worth it I think.

Haulin'

Thiiiiiis weeks op shop haul consisted of three dresses, three black tops, one pink shirt and one cosy colourful cropped jumper. Three black tops!? I hear you thinking loudly, why three black tops? IT'S IN THE MATERIAL PEOPLES. They are made out of different stuff and suitable for different occasions so there. The combined expense of my purchases came to a penny pushing $4.50. Two of the dresses need shortening but it's not hard and all part of the fun. For 50 cents a pop, who cares? 

Happy shopping peeps xx

Way of life

                   

Along with changing the name, I also wanted to give a new purpose to the blog. From now on, I solemnly swear to buy nothing new at full price over the amount of $10. The majority of anything sartorial will be secondhand. Anything that isn't secondhand will be something I already own or bought on sale. 

 There are a couple of reasons behind this. I don't know about you guys but I keep up with my fair share of fashion blogs and it is so so easy to get sucked into the world of consumerism. I think the peer pressure to be constantly on trend and updating your wardrobe is so apparent in the blogging world. It's unrealistic to constantly be shopping and spending so much money on clothes. In my opinion anyway. However, you could constantly shop and not spend much money by buying secondhand! Which leads to my second reason. I am currently unemployed. Unemployed = zero dollars. Buying secondhand is my best option to still regularly partake in my fav hobby. 

 Pictured above is my op shop haul from this week. Altogether everything cost $9. Not bad for two dresses, one pair of fluro shorts, two pairs of shoes, a fantastic straw hat and a bow tie still in it's box!
