(Thrift) finds of the week

More like two weeks)
Sorry, I meant to make a post last week, but all of my newly thristed stuff was in the washing machine)) I don't know why all of the stuff is so color-less, it wasn't my intention. It's just that my favorite store didn't have anything interesting in color.

1. Super big nude colored sweater from East Coast - it's too big on me, but really cute and cozy, so I plan to wear it with shorts and boots.

2. Grey chunky scarf - super soft and cheap.

3. Black one shoulder top from F&F - wasn't planning on buying anything, but it lookes too cute) I want to wear it with some full skirt and a flower brooch.

4. Black knitwear vest from Warehouse - waited for the right price, dreaming about what I'm gonna wear it with. The right answear - with everything!))

Also I've bought two pairs of boots - not from a thrift store, but at the sale, so they were rather cheap. Black ones are from Bershka, anr they are perfect for wearing them over skinny jeans. I think it was my beat purchase of these two weaks, because I'm leaving for Moscow in three days and it's much colder there now. Kyiv is still enjoying +23-25 C temperatures, but there's line +12 C in Moscow these days. I think I need to take my coat with me (and it's a bit depressing).

The second pair are supposedly from Christian Lay (I'm not sure). Theay are a bit rough, but I was thinking about buying something like riding boots for all the summer. I already have tons of stuff I want to wear them with.

Well, that's it for now. I do plan on going to the thrift market tomorrow though. I want to find some books for a friend and some cute traveling items as well.

Thrift finds of the week

In search for some new inspirations and topics for weekly posts I've decided to borrow an idea from Kara from Unusual Form. So Sundays are gonna be dedicated to treasures I fins in thrift stores or on flea markets.
I've been thrifting a lot this past year, and I absolutely love it. I go thrifting every week and sometimes even more often. My favorite store has two rooms: in one of them clothes, books and other stuff are sold on weight and the price for a kilo reduces each day a little - they start from a little less then 10 dollars and by the end of the week it drops to 0,6 of a dollar. Cool, right? Of course at this point there's no much stuff left, but I've found a lot of great pieces at this ridiculous price.
The second room has more interesting pieces and they have a price tag, but in the end of the week all of the clothing costs half of the original price. So you can see why I have to go there few times a week - I'm always waiting for a right price))

This week was very hectic - I've had so much work I couldn't even make myself go to a thrift store on a half price day (and it costed me a very pretty grey maxi dress). But when I finally felt interested and inspired, I've still managed to find a few pieces that costed me a little less then 3 dollars in total)))

- a skirt, made from two traditional Ukrainian shawls - I've always wanted a dress or a skirt with those patterns, but I can't sew, so... Thank you, unnown person from UK, who sold or donated this skirt to a charity shop) It's the third piece with our national pattern, that I find in a pile of Brittish second-hand. What's up with that?)
- Laura Ashley top - it's a bit too big on me, but it still fits good and the color is simply amazing, one of my favorites. I plan to wear this top tomorrow, with navy shorts and a dark cardi.
- lace underskirt - it's pretty and very nice to touch, so I'm pretty happy with this find. One of my favorite skirts has a polyester underskirt, and it's really unpleasant in summer, so now I can wear it with this pretty lace thing)

Over all, I'm very happy with stuff I've fount this week. There was a cream colored Topshop jacket there too, but it was a bit overpriced, especially for a thrift shop. I waited for a half price day, but someone already bought it. Well, I guess it just wasn't right for me)
