Over this past week the charity/car boot gods have been shining down on me! I have got some amazing goodies that I cannot wait to use! Found a brilliant charity shop near my boyfriends house, just a shame I didnt have any money left to buy more!
First up is this pristine kelly bag with a matching purse. I have no idea if its vintage, I need to google the label. But its beautiful and only cost me £4.99! I love Kelly bags, I have a navy one too. They just seem to ladylike.
I got these for 25p each from a bootsale yesterday. I am starting to nest haha, I have no intention of moving out for another 100 years but can't help buy things that I think will go in my own house. I wanted to put bubble bath in these. They will just have to sit in my parents bathroom for the time being.
A vintage Marks and Spencers peter pan collar sheer spotted blouse from a charity shop. This is so pretty. It has a frilly peter pan collar with a pussy bow tie. Only £2.50 so I snapped it up! Its in the wash for the time being but I cant wait to wear it. I think I might wear it to The Wombats in the next few weeks.
A selection of jewellery from bootsales and charity shops. The cameo necklace was from the charity shop in my boyfriends part of town. I love cameos, starting to build up a collection! The two rings and brooch on the left were from a bootsale yesterday and cost 50p each. The rings are adjustable so they fit perfectly. The green stone brooch on the right cost £2 from a rubbish bootsale last week. It was full of people selling electrical goods and prams.
Finally I brought two books for 99p each from my favourite Oxfam charity shop. I always buy my books from here, its only since I have joined Gems book club that I have beginning to buy new again. They always have such an amazing selection of books.
Anyone else find any second hand bargain over the weekend? How exciting is it that car boots have started up again!
Wow, some great finds! The jewellery pieces are just lovely, and I love rummaging for books in charity shops too :)

these are AMAZING finds! that bag is so elegant and gorgeous and those accessories are just so cute!
ReplyDeleteI love the Bag, beautiful x
ReplyDeleteThe blouse is lovelty. im so into peter pan collars at the moment :)
ReplyDeleteI popped into a local charity shop and found a jacques vert blue/green high waisted pencil skirt for £3.50. I also went to a thrift store for the first time, it was definately more expensive than a charity shop unlike the american version which tend to be cheaper but i ended up buying a royal blue blouse with black piping around the collar for £10.
Hopefully there will be some good bootsales near me soon x
amazing pieces! :)
