    Using your inspiration. I wore a charity find, a peachy Mint Velvet beaded vest top with a satin skirt from Zara to our Pearl wedding celebration on Saturday. I got so many comments on the top. It blew people away when I told them it was a charity shop find for £6.00 ! Many of our friends are going to try out the charity shops now. Thank you. I love your videos.

    Monica, just loving your videos in charity shops. I took your advice to buy an out of season coat when you see. I bought a padded Per Una jacket with hood, just £10.00. I would have left on shelf but so glad for your advice.

    Мonica, this double breasted " made in Italy" jacket is amazing! I am the same cut silk jacket from Rifat Ozbek. I already have it for 30 years, but i still enjoy wearing it.
    Thank you for the lovely vlog.
    Love.

    Hi Monica... another great video from you. I have started looking at the clothing that comes into our charity shop... last week I bought a lovely navy cheesecloth type blouse with white polka dots by a brand called Made in Italy. I'd not heard of them before. It needed a cami top under it and i found one for £2 in Primark. I also bought a pair of white M&S cropped jeans from my shop. I am really loving your ideas and inspiration. xxxx

    Great video and the prices in the UK seem to be very reasonable, still, unlike in Germany, where I live. Btw, OPUS is a German highstreet brand, quite popular along with its slightly more affordable line which is called „Someday“. They specialize in minimalist designs similar to Scandinavian fashion and their pieces can be dressed up or down for any occasion, really. If I have something from OPUS or Someday on my Vinted, it usually sells pretty quickly and people are willing to still pay quite a bit, because they are timeless pieces and usually well made for the price point. They are perfect for the current quiet luxury trend, too. 😊 Greetings from Germany. I‘m very much looking forward to your next videos.
