Thrift trip (jackets edition)

Hey guys! Recently I've made a couple visits to Fa Yuen Street and have hit some jackpots! Usually when it comes to buying clothes at thrift prices, the Mongkok and Shum Shui Po area are the places to go, but I'm normally apprehensive because the sizes are limited even though the choices are not. Sometimes the quality can be a bit dodgy too, so you've got to be careful and make sure you double check the goods before you check out! 

Anyway here are the things I've dug out of the back of racks and bottom of bins!

Metallic jacket from a reject shop ($80)
Seriously this was $80. (I think I cried a little bit) Its cut-out label marked Zella! But regardless of the authenticity it's a super chic jacket that's going to keep you warm and stylish through winter!

Vintage animal print blazer from the same reject shop ($70)
Marked Alba Moda, this rocking vintage blazer was a size 42, but that's all the better for me because I'm all about the oversize things this season! I'm in love with the vintage chic vibe.

Oversized military jacket ($180)
Suuuuper oversized and with a furry collar attached, this caught my eye immediately. Comes with a belt and extra detachable quilted vest to keep you warm! 

Grey jacket ($239)
My favourite out of all favourites! Best bit is the turquoise inside layer that shows when you roll up the sleeves and a slightly oversize cut (when will my things fit by choice!?) Super chic and clean, and can be dressed up or down!

This is only around half of my steals from Fa Yuen Street, so I definitely recommend you give the street a visit if you're feeling the urge to shop and still want to keep your bank account in tack...

Much love & keep warm,
xx
