I’m Gippsland’s Op Store Girly, and I’m Happy with it! – For City Girls

I’m Gippsland’s Op Shop Girly, and I’m Proud of it!

My love for op-shopping is undeniably true. And if I am pressured to do a confession, chances are high I’ll say that I’m an addict.

At present, one in all our rooms is devoted as my walk-in closet extension, with all of the piles of excellent finds, rigorously organized and hung utilizing Kmart hangers. That room is off-limits for everybody, together with my cats, coz I don’t need them to naughtily play with the lengthy hems of my attire.

I’ll have instructed you that I’m an op store style addict, however I do know my limits.

I efficiently discovered the artwork of mix-and-matching my op-shop finds and styled them along with my upcycled garments.

Identical to this present look!

This yellow-green shirt ($4.00) is from the op store in Drouin that I discovered within the males’s part. The checkered pants can be from the lads’s part at Vinnies Warragul for $8.00. I made this denim prime utilizing the previous denims, and this crochet purse that I lately made by upcycling my previous UNIQLO costume.

However with all this op-shopping dependancy, I actually despise quick style!

The quantity of huge textile waste it created through the years is giving me a lot nervousness, nevertheless, I nonetheless watched a number of quick style documentaries to maintain myself knowledgeable of the present scenario. I like to recommend you watch this newest documentary Al Jazeera produced lately, and it is rather insightful.

Because of this I’ve particular directions at residence concerning undesirable and outgrown garments. Most of my stepchildren’s clothes is upcycled into a brand new piece of clothes that I put on (I typically name it a wearable artwork!), and I make some fillers for our sneakers and baggage for storage.

Close to my closet?

I reckon my husband must construct me one other one as my no-baby current!
