Charity Shop Chic

For our recent assignment at University we were split into groups and allocated a charity shop in Aberdeen from the shop we had to create an outfit using just £10 and this will be then shown as an exhibition alongside the other groups outfits. My group were selected to uses the Cancer Research stores, there are three in Aberdeen which allowed us to have far more choice in clothing. Using our £10 we purchased the white blouse shown in the photos for £4, it is a size 22 and we decided to model and show it as a dress. The group also bought a small bag shown again in the photos for just £2 and today we revisited the charity shop and bought a scarf for £4 to complete the outfit.



We dressed our blouse for different looks and occasions to emphasise that you can wear things in so many different ways, show about is our festival look. We teamed the blouse and bag with  a pair of wellies, hat and sunglasses for a laid back approach.


Here we simply added heels and a black blazer which are both basic items but totally change the look.

 
I will post some new photos later in the week of the other styles and looks.
