Last week I talked about my love of thrifty clothes shopping and I told you that most weeks I can find some really good items of clothing from my local charity shops, items that are of good quality and are pretty stylish too. So here I am this week with another thrifty outfit for the Autumn.
I like bold items, bold bright colours and as I walked into the charity shop, my eye was instantly drawn to a yellow jacket. It was actually reduced in price, Yes charity shops have sales too. Originally labelled at £6, now only £3. So I tried it on, and voila…perfect fit.
