#DIY[Day 4]“I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life’s a bitch. You’ve got to go out and kick ass.” ~ Maya AngelouWelcome, dear bargain hunter!Our style feature this week is focussed on thrifting, the dos and don’ts that’ll help you be chic on a budget.Thrift find: the chocolate brown top with flower detail and the pink beltPrice: R20 (top), R5 (belt)DO: Try on loose-fitting and/ or oversized items. The ‘dress’ I’m wearing below is actually an XXL men’s shirt. I cut off the long arms and now wear it as a dress, sometimes with leggings as a top, or with jeans as a top also. Play around in the change room to see if you can make your oversize thrift find work for you – just be careful not to drown in it!DON’T: Try thrifting without a method. Use a cart, try different sections at a time, etc. You’ll feel less overwhelmed that way. And remember to try on your items before buying them!See @blackonwhitestory on Instagram for more ;) -- source link
