It's vintage baby!

Anyone who knows me know how much I LOVE op shopping, thrifting, second hand bargains and vintage delights! They truly make my heart sing 🎶

My love for finding second hand treasures - especially amazing vintage ones - has only grown about a thousand fold since being blessed enough to become a mum to girls 💕

Today, as Coco fits into the first of many stunning second hand and vintage outfits of which I am the proud owner. I cannot help but delight in her cuteness (of course!) but also by the fact that this gorgeous little dress once worn by someone else's little precious was purchased by me for a mere 20 cents. 

I wish all my bargain finds were that amazing, but unfortunately such prices are not as common these days. It doesn't mean you can't still bag a bargain though. It is always worth a browse through a thrift shop in my opinion! Most of my purchases are under $5, unless they are simply too spectacular to leave behind in the shop.. and then I am willing to occasionally stretch the budget. 

I also love that I am training Frankie up in the art of op shopping - when I find a dress or something cute for her she will often come home and proudly tell daddy "this was $2!". However $2 is also the only value that she knows how to reference at the moment. So even if something wasn't $2 - she will claim it was!
