As a 22-year-old living in Melbourne's inner north, Bella certainly embodies the Melbourne 'cool girl' dream, but in a way that is all her own... Read on to hear Bella's thoughts on what makes shopping second-hand worth your time, the homewares section, and the power of a well-placed compliment.
Although it might seem a bit late in the year to talk about summer fashion I actually think that these times of seasonal transition are often when we are the most in need of style inspiration. With this in mind, I decided to venture to my local Salvos and try to style a few outfits that would fit with the end of summer vibes - and hopefully inspire both myself and the readers of this blog to take advantage of our last few weeks of warm (or warm-ish) weather by wearing some fun summery (or summery-ish) looks.
In the first instalment of our new 'Customer Profiles' blog series, we hear from stylist, blogger, and Salvos Stores Ambassador Faye De Lanty about the joys of shopping second-hand and her latest designer op shop finds.
To give you a taste of the amazing stuff you can find on the Salvos online store, I went through the site and picked out my top ten favourite pieces available at the moment.
If you're in the market for a last-minute Christmas outfit, Salvos Stores is the perfect place to look. To prove it to you I went to my local Salvos and picked out not one, not two, but five looks that I think would fit right in at a Christmas Day event.
At Salvos we want op shopping to be accessible and enjoyable for everyone – even the least thrift-inclined. With this goal in mind, I have compiled my six top tips for anyone who wants to join the slow-fashion movement but just needs that little bit of help getting started.
This Christmas, you can make a real difference by making the Preloved Promise, and asking for second hand gifts.
Thanks to a new partnership between The Salvation Army and Booktopia, Booktopia will donate 10% of your purchase total to The Salvation Army to help fund important community programs.
