Question:
Authentic Christian Dior vintage monogram clutch - $3.50
Vintage 100% wool fully lined double breasted camel coloured winter coat, knee length, with faux fur collar (made in England)- $1.80
I've used the coat for 5 winters and without fail, every time I wear it, someone asks where I got it

Answer:
latest op shop by:
-blood red, woven leather clutch
-oversized 80's LA lakers t-shirt
-more mens levi's to cut into shorts coz my other ones are dying

Answer:
I only have a few. I don't go op shopping much because I usually get disappointed with the abundance of Temt, Ice, Valleygirl and Supre items.
Favourite finds
- Black and white large floral print 50's style dress for $18. I wear it everywhere
- 1960's Burberry trench for under 100euros from an op-shop in Rome
- Fendi bag for 40euros from another second-hand store in Rome

Answer:
All my friends say this too:
"Oh i never find anything but you always do"
Wrong! Back in the day when I was going frequently, i would search the yellowpages for all the various op shops then make a plan to go and visit all of the ones in a specific area, and then i'd go to the different areas about once a month each.
Some days i'd come out with nothing after going to about 8 shops.
Other days i'd go to 2 shops and get 5 things. Like someone previously said i think you just need to have 'the eye' for it & also the patience.
I find it helps to bring an ipod/discman along to listen to music while you search as that helps my mind from wandering and getting frustrated easily.
Anywho back on track, latest finds =
cute soft maroon button up vest $1
little white tee shirt with a cheetah on it cute! $1
pinky red button up sweetheart neckline dress $10
