Talk to any of my friends and they will agree that I am the luckiest thrift shopper around. I just seem to always find an amazing array of pieces whenever I step foot into a Opportunity Shop...and trust me, these feet step in A LOT! So, I thought I might just share the lovely little bits and pieces that I find along my way in a regular Styling Violet segment...Well Thrifted!
Besides luck, I do think that there is a certain amount of 'skill' to doing really well in an op-shop. I pick up pieces that most would not even look twice at...I see past the piece and think about how it will be work and styled with other pieces. I scan carefully for pieces that are on trend in colour, and then check for quality and shape. Sometimes all a piece needs is a little tweak at the tailors to make it current...It's not an exaggeration to say I save hundreds of dollars shopping this way.
Here are a few little pretties from an expedition yesterday....
