Hi Monica! My update on yesterday message to you is,I bought my purse from Poshmark! Yes,I was a bit nervous,but, decided to take a chance and not allow the Gucci Queen Bee supreme to be sold out! The one I missed out on was at a local store so this will be tough to wait. I went back and watched your video on purchased designer bags you own and decided that it's ok to do on line as long as it is guaranteed! I'll send you a picture if it works out. It's already in the process of shipping to the authentication site and then on to me. 2 week process for shipping! Thanks for your help!
Hi Monica, love how aware you are of your style, everything looks fabulous on you. With this in mind I've started to look at things differently when charity shopping (i unexpectedly lost a lot of weight v quickly, so needed a whole new wardrobe just after I'd been made redundant so charity shops we cheapest way , now I'm a little bit addicted to getting better quality for less than shein/primark prices, and trying to minimise my environmental impact) now I think is this actually my style, what can I wear this with, and what different outfits can I create - rather than just getting random things I like, so thank you for your vidoes, love them all ❤
Hi Monica I am so surprised at the things you are finding at such low prices. I went to my nearest charity shop in Scotland the other day found a nice Zara coat but the shop was asking £179.00 for it and £25 for a jumper .Personally I think there are a few shops overpriced
Prices here a v high too, if you are sure of your size in certain brands I have more success on vinted for items and price. My charity shops regularly have shein/primark items priced more than they would have been brand new! I try and stick to better quality items as they offer the real cost saving
Hello there! I tend to visit less 'popular' or 'appealing' areas, as these are the places where I am still finding the gems at good prices! The more upmarket or trendy the area, the higher the prices I find xxx
Hi Monica find the C shops usually stock very small sizes.Your video showcased some beautiful larger sizes.Thank you proves they are out there ,if you look hard enough.💚☘️💚
I can't think of a better item to buy at a charity shop or consignment store than a holiday clothing piece! You got some great deals. I don't know about you, but if I have it a while and find that I don't wear it, if it's come from a charity shop, I don't feel a bit bad about re-donating it. A donation to the cause. New subscriber thanks to Sophie!
Your Charity shop haul videos are excellent Monica. Some really good tips and hints too. Each season, or half Season, I create a "style file "on my phone photo gallery, but it could be on Pinterest, or even on a physical board, of my style 'hitlist' - from magazine photos, or style websites, people whose style I admire etc, then make a list of what I need to look out for. It's so enjoyable to create an outfit similar to The Row, or Chanel, or a page from Vogue- and then tell people how little it cost! And all so Eco too 🌏! Love your today's haul!
I could never wear black next to my face (made me look like a corpse). My employer introduced a navy dress code for our suits and what a discovery! Just as neutral, really, and good both summer and winter. I'll still wear black but usually only bottoms or vests etc. where the garment next to my face is a different colour.
Hi Monica, thanks for another excellent video....all 3 items you bought are great. The green top looks so good on you! I love the idea of these clothes having a new life and being loved all over again. Love your styling/colour choice tips and look forward to the next Vlog. Take care ❤
Monica what a fab haul the tops are beautiful and what bargains another fab video proving that you can get fab buys in charity shops they all looked fab on you
Hi Monica, i do love your content and this video is very practical. I believe i have seen you with Leonora and Alex. I enjoyed this vlog a lot and by the way, you are so beautiful.
Hi Monica. I just started watching your channel a few weeks ago and have been inspired to look in local charity shops. I was in Bristol last week and bought a a dressy white blouse for five pounds and a black winter coat from Capsule Outerwear for 15 pounds! I actually live in Germany, so I'm going to check out my local shop here very soon! Love your videos!
I like your make-up today, and I enjoyed the video. The pieces themselves are not really my cup of tea, but I liked the dusky pink Windsmoore blazer that was on the rack.
Great video honey. I would love to see these videos extended to show maybe 2 ways to style each piece... perhaps a formal style and a relaxed every day style. I am still poorly and full of cold but you ALWAYS make me smile. I hope you are ok sweetie. Sending my love. Lisa xxxx
Love your presentation style and enthusiasm for charity finds, I’ve long bought pre loved, it gives opportunity to have higher end pieces without the price tag! You look a lot like the actress Michelle Keegan and could double for her!! 😊
I love the grey French Connection top with the cutouts - subtly stylish, and I’m a fan of grey too. But the green top is the standout piece. I wasn’t sure until I saw it on you, but it looks so good! Somehow it manages to be fun and sophisticated at the same time! Almost all of my knitwear is cotton. My long winter coat is a thick wool-like cotton too. As a vegan it can be hard to get winter clothes, but with some patience I’ve managed to find good quality pieces.
I understand that you don't want to give any profit to a company that uses animal products, but would you not buy second hand wool? I'm just curious 🤔, I follow a Danish RUclipsr and she is vegan and an environmentalist but wears second hand clothing that was made from an animal product.

Loved them all ❤❤
I love when the shops put like colors together. I can go straight to the color I'm looking for. Great video.😊
Yes, and the best advantage we have over 20-somethings is we've learned over time what colours suit us. Makes shopping so much more efficient.

I found a heavy sequin top and washed it no problem on delicate' . No need to hand wash !
I want that green top. I recently bought black velvet palazzo pants. 4 $. Had to fix one dropped hem. New with tags. Would look so good for holidays.

Hello! Thanks so much for watching! Sounds like a fabulous finds! Happy charity shopping 😍❤️ xx
Great vlog as always I love a charity shop haul well done to you ❤
That black-and-grey tweed is back with a vengeance. There should be lots of coats and blazers from the 90s in thrift shops.
Totally!!
Great finds! 😊
Hi Monica loved this blog could I have the link for the bag with the gray knit you styled xx
Hello! So sorry - I have linked it below, its actually currently on sale!! xxx

Hi Monica ❤!!! Great tours of each Charity shop / lovely pieces for yourself . Loved the Malene Birger sweater ❤
Hello! Ohhh thanks so much, glad you enjoyed ❤. X
I like your make-up today, and I enjoyed the video. The pieces themselves are not really my cup of tea, but I liked the dusky pink Windsmoore blazer that was on the rack.
Hi Monica, All of your finds are fabulous. But my favourite would be the Swavorski phone case and French Connection grey jacket.
Oooooh yes! Good choices xxx
OMG, Monica - l guessed you'd buy these items, just by the way you enthused about them! Looking good! 👌
Hahahah! Read me like a book!! 😂❤️❤️❤️ thank you!
Great video honey. I would love to see these videos extended to show maybe 2 ways to style each piece... perhaps a formal style and a relaxed every day style. I am still poorly and full of cold but you ALWAYS make me smile. I hope you are ok sweetie. Sending my love. Lisa xxxx
Hello! So sorry to hear you’re still poorly but glad to hear my videos have made you smile ! Sending love back! Monica xxx
Love your presentation style and enthusiasm for charity finds, I’ve long bought pre loved, it gives opportunity to have higher end pieces without the price tag! You look a lot like the actress Michelle Keegan and could double for her!! 😊
The link to your lipstick isn’t there, what is your lipstick please? Great vlog. ❤
So sorry! It should work now! Its Mac 'Myth' - the only colour i wear! xx

What is the location in Londen of the mind shop. I would like to visit it
Hello! My favourite London Mind shops are Camden & Stoke Newington 🥰🥰
One disadvantage to thrift shops for knits though, is they really shouldn't be hung. Monica, maybe you can spread the word!
Noted! Thanks for sharing xx
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Are all these shops in Ipswich?
In this video: yes 🥰❤️
You are so gorgeous
That’s so kind!! Thank you xxxx
