I mostly shop at the hospice shops in Auckland where I live where the profits support the mercy mission to provide palliative care for those in need among other things.&nbsp; I like the thought that my clothes donations support the charity and that I can get nice clothes in return as the shops are very well maintained. The other one I go to is the SPCA which supports animals without homes, another charity close to my heart. It can be a bit more expensive than some other thrift shops but its a hobby for me and what I do, apart from yoga for stress release in my holiday time.&nbsp; The only downside is it takes a long time to find things and i get hayfever if its dusty.&nbsp; I belong to a facebook group which shares their "op-shop finds" and that can be fun but my colleague joined and liked my clothes which feels a bit weird.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-wiw-and-wiww#post-2190025 Mon, 26 Apr 2021 12:46:22 +0000 Janet 2190025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great white shirt! I think you did well with this, and congrats on filling the wardrobe holes. Those are nice shoes in #3 too, and I hope you can wear them comfortably and enjoy. Congrats on the graduation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-wiw-and-wiww#post-2190019 Mon, 26 Apr 2021 12:26:10 +0000 Bijou 2190019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A great white shirt, such a good fit. I really like these striped tops and hope your feet cope with the heels, as they work so well with your outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-wiw-and-wiww#post-2189963 Mon, 26 Apr 2021 03:51:25 +0000 Jonesy 2189963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all fab looks!

Yay to thrifting. Frankly it is more sustainable than the most sustainable shop (in my unhumble opinion) as those clothes already exist and are pretty much heading for landfill if no one buys (rant over). YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-wiw-and-wiww#post-2189937 Mon, 26 Apr 2021 01:40:47 +0000 Sally 2189937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Jenn.&nbsp; I have found a couple of things useful recently.&nbsp; One was Pinterest and looking up ways to style a particular item. e.g I will probably do this with my white shirt.&nbsp; &nbsp;The other is looking for blogs or celebrity street styles of those people with the same body type as me.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-wiw-and-wiww#post-2189917 Sun, 25 Apr 2021 23:49:55 +0000 Jenn 2189917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is the perfect white shirt.

Fun stripes in both looks -#2 and 3, and great fitting jeans in #1.<br />Good luck on the wearing a shoes with a bit of heel ( take boots in case of switch in half time - could work as a dancing options. Is dancing possible at graduation? ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-wiw-and-wiww#post-2189697 Sun, 25 Apr 2021 04:58:38 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2189697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These all look great! Congrats on filling up some holes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-wiw-and-wiww#post-2189695 Sun, 25 Apr 2021 04:53:25 +0000 Sally 2189695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pic 1.&nbsp; All those articles where they say every French woman has a white shirt in her wardrobe, but I have never found a white shirt that suits me or my style....until last week in Zara.&nbsp; My friend who was with me, who is a musician said she always has a white shirt in her wardrobe.&nbsp; I really liked this one so I bought it.&nbsp; sorry it wasn't styled but I'm wearing with my $6 thrifted jeans.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />pic 2: what I wore today.&nbsp; This is as drapey as I will go, also a nod for team stripes.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Pic 3: This is what I am planning to wear for my graduation if I can learn to walk comfortably up stairs in those shoes.&nbsp; Otherwise I'll have to wear boots or docs.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>In my quest to fill holes in my closet, I have an appreciation of thrift shops. In the last week, I have found a few things that I can use to fill immediate holes and this will allow me to save up for good, sustainable items that will last me.&nbsp; Since I feel I have enough appropriate clothing at the moment, I feel ready to let go of those clothes that are too big for me now, and no longer serving a purpose.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
