So who doesn't love a post about outfits? I sure do
and as I view more and more outfits that are now available in a vintage theme,
I am wishing I had more money to spend on clothes. However like most of people
that are not going to happen until I become a teacher. In the spirit of
cheap shopping I will share my cheap finds that look a million bucks.
Firstly always look around, just because you
see something in a store doesn’t mean that you cant find a simple cheaper thing
somewhere else or even online. I love online shopping it definitely is one of
my favorite past times. Vintage skirts are hard to find especially when you
don’t have that much money to spend $50 or more on a skirt like Hell Bunny
(which I still love). As an adventure in to the world of circle skirts I
ordered this skirt from china through Ebay, for only $22.74. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/251704420700
I double checked the size as you could imagine some sizes are not the same in
all countries. I received the skirt and was over the moon with it!
In this photo I have a petticoat underneath which I
also bought online always http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/27-Retro-50s-Vintage-Petticoat-Underskirt-Swing-Fancy-Net-Skirt-Rockabilly-Tutu-/181572910198
for $17.98 pretty cheap and as a starter in to the world of vintage is a good
start.
In terms of tops, I raid the local stores for tops
that could easily go with other vintage items. You will be very surprised with
what you will find in stores like Target, Kmart or even shops like Katies.
Compared to what you will pay for proper Vintage
clothes, you’re looking at over $200 for top, skirt and petticoat. I think it’s
a good compromise for the girl on the tight budget.
What finds have you found? Any bargains? Online or in-store?
I would love to hear.
