Prada dress. Can't tell much from the picture, but it is a perfect black dress. Very flattering at the top with a low scoop and the skinny straps.

Shocking pink/maybe it is red, soft as butter....Linda Allard/Ellen Tracy jacket

Piazza Sempione skirt from Buffalo Exchange. It was $24, but they sold it fo $12 because it had a litle stain on it. I was actually worried about this stain as it looked pretty set in...but still did not let it deter me. The dry cleaners were able to remove the stain and I have the most gorgeous circle skirt EVER!

And last but not least...a few years ago I was a BE and chit-chatted with a girl who had just sold some stuff. In her bag was this bright crochet sweater and I told her that I was surprised theyhad not purchased it as it was super cute. So...she gave it to me!! I had never worn it, but last week bought this white James Perse t-shirt dress there in trade and it is PERFECT to wear under the sweater!

And so on... anyway here's my kind of thrift diary: http://thriftedtreasures.tumblr.com/

They were ALL sooo cheap. I live in Hungary, and I always wonder that if I find stuff like there HERE, what could be found in the UK and other bigger-better countries...!

Could someone could start a refashion and renew thread using secondhand bargains? I am inspired by all the creative ideas and would like to read more (am new to the forum and don 't know how to make this request).

Ok, having read through this thread and see all your beautiful pics, I am inspired to go shopping in my local charity shops! I used to go shopping there a lot when I was a student but have not been in for a long time for clothes just for books. Mind you, this last ten years, the fashion market has been inundated with cheap clothes (ghastly ones as well) and this is what you mainly see now in charity shops! But hope springs eternal!

I've been following this post for a while, I thought I'd share one of my finds from Savers today! A Michael Michael Kors purse that I'm going to give to my mother in law! Best part: $6.99! I also found a really cute Brahmin cross body purse for the same price, and a Three Dots skirt for $3.99. I've found lots of great things since I started thrifting, and I'll try to post some of them here.
