Thrift Inspiration, doing it Etro's way!

Well, following on from yesterdays post, I thought I would show you the Topshop gilet I managed to thrift yesterday. I have been inspired by Etro and Guccis gilets this autumn, but I didn't want a full furry one, as the majority of them are dry clean only, so too high maintenance if I'm going to wear regularly!


Etro also featured a gorgeous black and leather studded one in S/S 08
I'd love one like this too, sigh...!!


Now its been freshly laundered, its ready to go and will go with virtually anything in my wardrobe. It is a handy addition to keep me cosy and stylish. I have my wool gilet too, so thats my fill of this trend for now!

Have a great Sunday!!

Topshop Waistcoats and Gilets

I love browsing different sites for thrift inspiration. I was after a warm gilet, but not a totally fur one or a puffa padded one. I browsed Topshop and got some great inspiration from these gorgeous ones, currently available online:


Mongolian Sheepskin Gilet, £85


Tailored Waistcoat, £40

The lovely Marian at House of Style is wearing a customised waistcoat very similiar to the grey one-check it out, as this is a great diy project which Marian shows to be very stylish indeed!



Leather hooded waistcoat, £60



Leather biker gilet, £75


So, armed with an idea of what I wanted on my thrift trip today, I was pleased to score a lovely fur and denim padded Topshop gilet for £3.99. I also got a leather mini skirt, £2.99, to wear with opaque tights, flat boots and a winter woollie jumper or cardi.
I'll update with piccys in the week, as our camera is out of action at the moment!! Hope you are all having a great weekend!
