Charity Shop And Thrifted Finds – January 25 Edition

My last charity shop finds post was way back in August, and when I started collating the images for this new post, I quickly realised that this would most definitely have to be two posts rather than one. So, this is my first charity shop and thrifted finds post for 2025, and this is concentrating on fashion, specifically clothing.

Take a look at all the beautiful, wonderful fashion items I have been able to find on my travels. There are designer items like the Etro silk dress and the vintage Burberry top. There are vintage items like the incredible pink St Michael label dress that reminded me of something Princess Diana would’ve worn in the 1980’s.  There are brand new items that still have the price tags on them, like the Lipsy cardigan. And finally, there are just items that are lovely and would grace any wardrobe or would be perfect for a special occasion.

Some of these items I did buy (and may be wearing in the photograph). Some of them were, unfortunately, not my size, but I photographed them to show you just some of the treasures that are out there waiting to be discovered. There are also, for the online fan, items I have found on Vinted, which is a brilliant treasure trove when you are looking for something specific.

January is a great time to take a look in a Charity shop or on Vinted, as many people will donate, or sell on, their unwanted Christmas presents. This means there are some really great quality, new items available at a fraction of their RRP. People also sort out their unwanted clothing to make space for their new stuff, so the pickings can be rich.

Let’s take a look at some of my finds.
