Charity shop finds #1.

Hi everyone, I hope you're well. 
Last Saturday was the Saturday of bargains; In the morning my mum, sister and me went to a huge makeup sale where everything was either 50p or £1 (haul coming soon!) and later on in the day I went to a sweet town near me called Stony Stratford to do some charity shopping. It was amazing. I can safely say I will be doing this thrifting lark more often, Lot's of vintage prettiness and supporting amazing charities? Yes please.



This is what I ended up bringing home with me:
Tea cup and Saucer- £1.30
Tin- £5.00
Necklace- £2.50
Yankee Candles- £1.99 each

I'm totally in love with everything I bought, they look adorable in my room! Now I tell a lie with the Yankee Candles, these were not actually from a charity shop, but I wanted to show you them because they smell so amazing! Sugared apple makes me want to cry with happiness. True story. The Necklace is so delicate and pretty, I love anything with a vintage or cameo feel to it so look out for this in future OOTD's. I saw the tin and was undecided over it in the shop because it was £5.00, however I'm so glad it came home with me! I've decided I want to start collecting pretty teacups to put tea lights in, trust me, it looks so sweet! 

I can see this becoming something I do regularly, I found it oddly therapeutic just pottering around and the bargainous gems; I'm officially a charity shopper!

What do you think of my finds? Are you a fan of charity shopping?
