Today I decided to visit the local thrift shop (recyclerie) to see if they had anything worthwhile. My favourite one, at the center of town, is closed until mid-September so my local options are pretty limited. Surprisingly, I was able to find some super cute items. Also they look like a bit of a matching set of light reds and pinks, but that was unintentional.
The first is a light red gingham dress. Sadly, it's too small in the hips! Totally sad because the size said it was a 44 (and I wear dresses 40-42) and it didn't look like it was adjusted. Still, it's small and now I need to think about whether I will keep it or give to another recyclerie (I cannot return it to the same one, that would be too embarrassing).
I also found a super dainty little top that I snatched up immediatly. It has a cute floral pattern sewn into semi-transparent cloth over the solid white beneath it. It's very cute and fits great, I just need to cut off some loose threads. The top is from Camaieu.
Last but not least, I found an adorable flannel-like top with a short sleeve, some buttons, and a string under the bust. I have a wrap-around tanktop with a very similar colour scheme, and I love it! It fits a little tighter but is still good and I can't wait to try it with some jeans. It's from Cache.
There were a number of items I was interested it but didn't get, so I think I will go back on Friday to have another browse through. I will be a bit more mindful about sizes this time too. I'm not too disappointed because each item only cost 1 euro! I got all that for just 3 euro total, which to me, is a total steal.
