I was recently contacted by vouchercodes.co.uk to take part in the 'Bargainista Challenge', basically, it is a competition for fashionistas to show off their bargainista outfit!
I'm wearing:
Blue and white pinstripe dress-carboot, 30p: Without a doubt, one of my favourite thrift finds! It used to be down to my ankles so I hemmed it to my desired length and wear with a waist belt (as it is rather large!)
Denim jacket-Charity shop, 50p: I adore this denim jacket, it's so practical, it goes with everything and is the perfect fit :D
Brown satchel-Market, £1: I have a huge collection of handbags and this was perfect! I really love vintage brown leather look little bags

Clog/Sandals-Topshop, £18 reduced from £50: I wanted shoes like these for ages and couldn't believe how much they had been reduced! I don't think I could ever afford anything in Topshop at full price, so I always hunt for stuff in the sales :)
Straw Hat-H&M, £1 reduced from £5: I love this hat, it goes with everything! It's actually a man's :P But i wear it the wrong way round as it seems to look more feminine, haha
Round sunglasses-Carboot, 10p: I picked these up at a carboot, I love 60's styled items and these reminded me so much of John Lennon :P
Belt-Mum: This is my favourite belt, I wear it a lot as I love high waisted shorts and skirts :)
OK, as for my secret Bargain Hunting Tip, I guess I would say, 'Don't get upset when you see someone wearing that amazing dress from Topshop that you couldn't afford, you could probably find something similar, or even more amazing in a charity shop that NO-ONE else has for a fraction of the cost!'
This Competition is open to ALL UK bloggers! And even better, there is a chance for 3 First Prize Winner's to grab themselves:
Two Gold entry tickets to London Fashion Weekend
