Autumn and op shop finds

It's Autumn in Melbourne, my favourite season. The sun still shines but it can get a wee bit chilly, especially in the mornings. Recently, I had thought about investing in a new winter coat, it's been 4 n bit years since I bought my last. With a protruding belly, your options can be limited so probably best for me to wait until next year.

However, the other day I found myself at an Op Shop in Seaford, came across this (looks like it's never been worn) Australian brand Marcs trench coat. I snapped it up with the $20 price tag, wow, what a find! Upon paying for my fabulous purchase, I spotted a pair of cream leather gloves nestled in the glass cabinet case at the counter, $10!
No need for a new winter coat, I'm sorted for the bargain price of $30.

Everyone loves a bargain, right? If you have been following Sleekit for some time you will be aware of my canny knack to pick up a bargain. Take this Konstantina Mittas dress for instance, I purchased from a Sportsgirl sale, $250 odds marked down to $29! I admired it at full price but knew that sometime soon it would reduce; I will stalk a desired item for month's until it reaches my budget. 

The other day, I stumbled upon these soft suede, leather sole sandals for the bargain price of $29, reduced from $305! Loving the fringes and the silver heel detail and they are so comfortable. How pissed would you be if you bought them full price!

But remember, a bargain is only a bargain if you can wear or make use of it, items that sit in your wardrobe are best left on the shelf!
