Top 5 Thrift Shop Items - More Than Pennies

"Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream." - Taylor Swift

Sorry, for short break! My fiancé had surgery and is in hospital right now. Nothing too serious, but I have to take care of our house, dogs and of course my studies! 

So I have been pretty busy and I have missed all the good products from second hand store... I was planning to go tomorrow.

But today I was thinking that I would tell you my TOP 5 2nd store stuff. We all have different favorites, but these are what always grasps my attention:


#1 Shirts, tops etc. I buy these way too often, every nice shirt that I see! However it works seasonally.
In spring and summer I buy all sorts of T-shirts and tops. I don't look for any specific label, I choose those which have special prints.
In winter I prefer knitwear and sweaters. Mostly because it's so damn cold out here! And they of course have to be good looking!

#2 Purses and handbags. I have found many amazing bags from 2nd hand stores! My absolutely favorites are Guess and Jimmy Choo bags that I bought for some ridiculous price (just a couple of euros). I checked and they were authentic. Some one didn't know what they were selling...

#3 Dresses. When is time to get a party dress, I go always on 2nd hand patrol! 
There is a much bigger selection when looking for dresses that are perfect for you! 
I'm quite conservative so I wear dresses with longer tail (knee or longer). I don't like to show my bottom all around... I like to wear dresses with leggings or jeans.

#4 Trousers. Like I said in my last post, I have to take trousers and skirts under a schedule! 
My main interests are in jeans and leggings. I'm not exactly a "skirt-person". 
Last Spring I bought lovely yellow jeans for 1.50 euros! It's quite difficult to buy jeans, if you aren't 100 % sure about your size.

#5 Accessories. In thrift shops you are bound to find a large selection of jewelry, necklaces and belts for a good price! 
I don't recommend buying any ear rings, at least not before you have boiled them in hot water. I like different colored belts, because they fit with almost any knitwear or dresses. In Finland, teenagers call them "booby belts". They underline your waist.

Well, that's all for now. See you next time!

P.S. In these photos, I have my goddaughters knitwear with hoody. I borrowed it... ;)
