Soooo I've been to the charity shops a few times recently and this i a collective haul of twice that I have gone, I think I've missed a few items but cant seem to remember what! (so bad!)
I seem to have got a lot of items for a pound, mainly because one of my fave charity shops is a 'clearance' shop so all clothes are £1 and then at times they'll have a 50p rail.
The blouse I have bought is size 20 so it's pretty large, but I think I will wear it over sized and tied up at the front. The tshirts I bought are all mens, I loveeed the colour of the pupley one and thought it would look cute with leggings and with a few layers over the top just to wear to uni etc. I like the retro look of the adidas one, it looks quite bright red in the photo but in real life its a duller shade and sliiightly orangey? Which I like! It looks pretty worn, which just adds to it for me. The next tshirt, with the freaky clown head on caught my eye, but I wasn't too sure on it.... I think I will cute this up by customising it, either cropping it or making it a tassel top. I think it will look really grungey and cute, I'm thinking of it with high wasited denim shorts at a festival type thing?

The denim shirt is also a mans shirt, I love denim shirts and the last one I bought was a really pretty light blue one but its HUGE as its a size 14, but its over sized as it is so it drowns me a little :( so when I saw this I had to have it! It looks a bit big but not as if it will come down to my knees and make me look huuuuge! I love the colour of it too! :)

I love the duck egg blue colour of this jacket and I think it will be perfect for coming into spring when I'm putting away my fur coats but still need something to keep me warm outdoors etc. I think the colour is amazing and will go with a lot, especially black (which I wear a LOT of !) and its a nice injection of colour too! I bought the beigey/caramel coat too for the same reason, it has a hood too so is good for rainy days :)

As you can tell from the belt, this duck egg blue colour is one I'm in LOVE with at the moment, as soon as I saw this belt I fell in love, most of the belts I have are thin and in dark or neutral colours, so I thought this would be a nice change and look pretty in the spring. It had no price tag on and I was expecting it to be about £1 but when I got to the counter the kind man in there only charged me 10p for it, I'd bought a few mens ties and shirts for a project and didnt realise how cheap I'd got it for until I got home. So thaaank you my friend! :)

I loooove the denim skirt, it reminds me of my mum so much! I thought it would make a nice change from wearing high waisted denim shorts all the time. I think its really cute! And for £1? Even better :)
I bought the vintage lilac dress at the same time, which I love but unfortunately it's a little big on me! I think it's a really lovely find and once again, for £1?! :D

The gold framed, floral pictures I picked up, I adore! I realise they might not be to everyones taste but I think they will look really cute on my wall. I really like the pressed flowers designs and I really like how the gold paint is chipping off the frame giving them a real shabby look. The price stickers on the back said that they were £3 each and I didn't really want to pay that much for them (sorry!) but I was in the clearance shop and I was pretty sure that everything in there was £1 or less & I was happy to pay that for them. When I got to the till, the one woman asked the other how much to charge for them and she said 10p each! So I was very happy!!

Silky scarves are something that appear in everyyy charity shop and I always end up picking a few up, this time I got this one with leopards on and I also got a pink and purple paisley one but couldnt find it in my messy room to take a photo! :( I love these just to add to an outfit or hide messy hair, everyone needs a silky granny scarf collection!

Last thing I'm guna talk about (cause ONCE AGAIN I have gone oooon sorry!) is the hat! HOW cute is it?! I saw this the first time I went in but didn't pick it up so the second time when I went back I kinda expected it to be gone... but it wasnt and my friend convinced me to buy it, I wouldn't normally spend £5 on something like this because it's something I'm not sure I would wear... but I do think it looks really cute on and I'm glad I finally decided to buy it :)
What do you think?! :)
