Recent charity shop purchases

A black ‘suit’ - actually two separate pieces that match. The jacket is M&S and the trousers are Hugo by Hugo Boss & fit.me.like.a.glove. and I don’t think had ever been worn - the pockets were still sewn up. I also bought a big loose baggy pair of black suit trousers to have an alt bottoms as well. All three bits together were less than £40

So far I’ve worn the suit 3 times; a funeral, a 40th birthday party and (today, with a black polo neck instead of shirt/tie) for a seminar presentation

Took a load of CDs to the charity shop a few months ago when I moved then when visiting said shop almost accidentally bought a load of them as they looked good :upside_down_face:

Just remembered what the last thing I bought from a charity shop was

A tiny packet of mixed colour pearlescent glass beads, which I strung on a thread to make a little necklace

That last photo is ridiculous

The colour harmony

Making this thread reminded me of the lovely charity shop dress I got on IoW. Also have a perfect top to wear underneath to make it winter friendly

I think the pricing was an honest mistake
