the Fine Line Between Thrifting and Collecting

I've gone to a lot of flea markets looking for a specific china my mother-in-law collects. It's ridiculously hard to find so when you actually find some of it you feel like you've won the lottery or something - cause the odds are so slim. 

For some reason I've transferred this to thrift shopping. I have way too much hanging in my closet that I don't use that much but that hold some sort of collecting value. Something that are so unique and hard to find that I just have to had it. I guess it is the same thing that makes me stand in line for Marant in 2 hours. If it's limited it's just a lot more fun. 

Today I found this shirt at the thrift shop where I volunteer.I had to take it home with me because I already had a matching jacket! What are the odds of finding two items in the same print, from the same clothing line (same label: City Look) in thrift shops? 



It's not the first time I've done this though. I've also found these two pieces of old H&M exclusif items in two different stores in different ends of the country and at very different times.

Marant Mania in Copenhagen


Not surprisingly at all I ended up going with some friends for Isabel Marant pour H&M this morning. I was waiting in line at 7.05 am. The first people in the queue had been waiting since 5 am. Insane. Luckily we made it in with the first group of 30.

I've been to the Marni, AdR and Margiela before, but this was just crazy. 

Of course I ended up buying the one thing I had specifically told my self I couldn't afford, didn't need and was too blogger exposed (to the point where it got a little nauseating). 

4 hours of Marant Mania summed up in 4 steps: 



Queuing 


Hoarding


Buying




 Enjoying

Tuesday's Crush: Klara Dress


I'm gonna have to buy this when it hits the store. I love this print!

They've also made a shirt and a bra with the same print :)

Countdown: 8 Days to H&M pour Isabel Marant


I'm sure you've all seen the pictures and heard all about the clothes all ready. At first I was like :'nah, this is not my style (too bohemian). I'm not sure what all the fuss is about'. This is also why I haven't blogged about it. It's grown on me though. It wouldn't be a surprise if I end up standing in line next Thursday. 

I've picked an outfit of favorites. I'll properly end up only buying the vest cause that is the only thing I can afford. The shoes are from the kids section, but I kind of like them. 

Vest 19,99 £

Pants 59,99 £
Bomber 79,99 £


Shoes 29,99 £
