Cheap blouse

De vez en cuando me encanta comprar ropa barata (en tiendas vintage o mercadillos) y combinarla de forma que no parezca barata. La blusita de hoy me costó 3 € en un mercadillo y os aseguro que cuando lo digo nadie se lo cree. El truco está en combinarla con accesorios de calidad. Por su aire retro me gusta mucho como queda con estos tejanos anchos que ya os enseñé aquí. El toque chic lo dan el bolso, el reloj y las gafas.  

¿Vosotras compráis barato? ¿Cómo combináis esas prendas?

¡Feliz lunes!

From time to time I like to buy cheap clothes (in vintage stores o “mercadillos” a kind of flea markets very typical here in Spain) and combine them in a way they don’t look cheap. The blouse I’m wearing today cost me 3 € and many people don’t believe when I tell them. The tip is pairing it with high quality accessories. Because of its retro air I’d like how it looks with these wide leg jeans that I already showed you here. A good leather bag, a golden watch and chic sunglasses are the perfect accessories to jazz the look up.     

Do you buy cheap clothes? How do you combine them?

Happy Monday!

  1. I am always on the bargain hunt so if I can find something for under $10 I'll try to pair it with something else that is of higher quality, and add better accessories. I think if you pair the outfit with poor quality shoes and a handbag then it's a dead giveaway. I'd never guess that blouse was Eur 3??? Love the bag!!!

  4. Me encantan las tiendas de segunda mano. Encuentras prendas baratitas y con personalidad. La camisa es monísima y por 3€!!!! Me gusta mucho el bolso de Bimba&Lola.
    Un besazo.
