Hi guys. I love vintage/ second
hand/ Thrift shopping. I just gives me great pleasure to get items at such a
low price. I shop at various places. My latest finds being vintage markets held
around Cape Town monthly. They have provided me with a new source of shopping
& a happy place.
I bought this suit at one such
market. It’s a bit big & I took it anyways. One, I knew I can alter it to
fit me to perfection. Two, it was really cheap. Three not all things come to
you in perfection. You must tweak things a bit here & there to make it work
for you.
I suggest to people who also love
thrift shopping to buy things that are not a perfect fit at that moment. Take
them to a tailor & get them altered. If it’s a really unique piece you
really love, get it & make it your own. If it’s a coat or leather product
& other items that are not easy to alter, I say think more carefully &
have a plan.
Luckily Cape Town weather was
forgiving on the day of the shoot. Happy thrift shopping.
