Thrift Inspiration, Ebay Style

The January retail sales and ebay are the time to be picking up bargains, particularly style pieces that are not trend led and will re-emerge season after season.

This black sequinned jacket is now £278, reduced by 51% in the Matches sale, available here:
I spotted this one on Ebay earlier this week and its by Miss Selfridge.

My photo is not very good quality, but the jacket has black and electric blue sequins and has cropped sleeves:



Have you a sequin piece in your wardrobe that is a favourite?

Hope you all have a very nice weekend!

I also have a sequin jacket, it is silver though. I like to bring it out during the day and dress it down with jeans and flats. Great find on ebay though.

Nice sequins jacket.
I had a Betsy Johnson 80's skirt that I wore so much that the sequins started to fall.
Now I own 2 fantastic sequins purses.

Que tengas un buen fin de semana.

Dear Sharon, it's lovely! The blue sequins make it much more interesting.

My favourite piece is a gold and silver sequin dress but it always leaves a trail of sequins every where I go. Have a great weekend xx

I like a bit of sparkle and that jacket is fab! I've got a sequin black cardie I've had for a couple of years that always does the trick for a party! Have a lovely weekend xx

How funny, I currently also do have a post about embellishment and sequins! Sequins are sooooo perfect for an evening look, you never can go wrong with them! the blazer is so cute, very 80s!
Have a great weekend, my dear :) love reading your blog :)

Yours is lovely and much better as it's electric blue, one of my very favourite colours.
I've got a black 1950's sequinned top which I've only worn once. Maybe when it gets a bit warmer. xxx

Have I a sequin piece? I have about a thousand!! Slight obsession with sequin jackets, leggings, tops, dresses and even a pair of shoes! You really can never have too much of a good thing xx

Perfect find of course! Those trousers are the best we can be twins!

Your jacket *rocks*! ^_^ I love the look of electric blue sequins! I have a vintage butterfly-pattern sequin top I got from the thrift store that I adore! Still haven't been to a glitzy-enough occasion to wear it, but I'm hoping next year we'll get to do that.

Lenya said...

WOW!!! I love it. Going to look amazing on you.
