Who doesn't love a bargain?

Charity/thrift shops are hit and miss. That doesn't put me off sneaking a peek inside one whenever I get a chance though. The trouble is that I simply don't have the "eye" for a hidden gem. Here are the goodies purchased by my sister, Nadia, in Stratford-Upon-Avon a couple of weeks ago. I defy anyone to out-shop her in a charity shop!

Floaty skirt with belt detail which just happens to go  beautifully with this summery printed hijab.
This skirt is ankle length and looks pretty and fresh teamed with this floral hijab.

Selection of handbags; top right: soft brown leather with short carry-handle and long shoulder strap, top left: printed satchel and centre bottom: large, print canvas tote.
I am in love with all three of these bags but especially the canvas tote which has soft leather trimmings in a lovely muted grey.

This set of matching faux wicker baskets came complete with tags. They are perfect for bedroom storage and the glossy black finish looks great against her plain white walls.

Suffice it to say that none of the items cost more than a few pounds. Her reign as Charity Shop Queen continues...
