My Vintage Splurge

Had a mad ebay and vintage shop splurge last weekend, and here'due south the fruits of my labour. I think I should be called the "ebay poacher" – every ebay item I was behest on had others bidding against me but I won them, I tell you, I won!!! I cannot tell you lot the satisfaction I get from winning ebay auctions and poaching them from others. It's my just mean streak; I more often than not effort to be a nice person, just when it comes to ebay I'm ruthless. Do not try to bid against me, because I. TAKE. NO. PRISONERS.

1. Irish wool greatcoat: vintage store – £twenty
I AM IN LOVE. Looks absolutely cute on, and has pockets on the inside.  And simply twenty quid??!!!

2. Wool maxi skirt: vintage store – £10
A tiny bit big on the waist, merely nothing a belt can't sort out. Keen pattern – so long and warm it'due south like wearing a big blanket. My office at piece of work gets freezing in the wintertime and I often sit with a blanket wrapped round my legs. This will be a lot more chic.

3. Fuschia spotted blouse: ebay – £4.70
I'1000 going to remove the nighttime bow on the pocket, change the gold buttons and do something to sew together the loftier neck back and so it's more than of a v neck. Dear the colour, and polkadots are on tendency for fall.

4. Dogtooth chiffon blouse: ebay – £15.49
Doesn't demand anything doing. Beloved information technology every bit is.

5. Blue floral short sleeved blouse: ebay – £xiv.fifty
This looks way better on, and I'1000 going to modify the buttons to grayness ones. I've already taken out the shoulder pads – you could encounter the pads through the cloth and my shoulders are square enough.

6. Patchwork knitting bag: ebay – £ix.89
This is going to make a very kitsch handbag – no alterations needed.

Total: not going to work information technology out, they were all bargains. Scout this infinite for their debuts!
Right – off to sentry X Factor.
