Thrift Finds in Manila - Vintage Bags (Part 5)

Ukay-ukays in Manila has certainly become a bit pricier as compared before. Some stores have put up really over-the-top prices for branded items especially with the famous designers. It's a sweet treat to find some thrift shops in the city that still sells these awesome finds for less than the price you're expecting to get them for. Sharing some of my old bag finds that I bought last year. Similarly, for those who have been looking for awesome classy bag finds, do head on to Zalora's website. They got some eye-catching clutches that I certainly want for myself! ;)

Thrift Finds in Manila - Winter Wonderland (Part 4)

It's been a while since I have posted another set of  thrift finds around Manila, or for an easier way of putting it, looking for nice ukay-ukay bargains! I admit that I try to go to my favorite "UK UK" stores at least every two months. I am not ashamed to tell that I bag lots of designer clothing and other accessories by haggling at these stores. It's especially fun when you think your buying them for 1/4 or sometimes even 5% of the original price!

The feature for this post is military winter wonderland. I am a sucker for clothes that I can only wear during cold season, which happens for only one or two months in the Philippines. My closet is full of apparel made out of thick material like jackets, blazers, and knitted sweaters. I am just in love with this kind of fashion!

This Divided by H&M jacket was featured in my third feature of my ukay-ukay hauls and was also worn on our Day 12 in Jeju.

Thrift Finds in Manila (Part 3)

I'm back again with the 'Thrift Finds' series, I just found two great ukay-ukay shops in the metro and I just can't wait to share the great pieces I purchased there! If you're interested to see other part of the series, this is for Part 1 and Part 2. For these past posts, I've just shared some shoe and bag thrift scores, but for now, I'll be showing some of the recent clothing finds I had. I just got them at a very very very cheap price - and oh, did i mention that these are all branded?! :) I have not ironed these as I was to excited to post this on the blog so apologies for the pictures.

First off is this shirt from a Japanese fashion label called Comme des Garcons. I'm not sure if this will fit me though (I have not tried this on yet), so if not, I might just sell this one.

The contrast of the polka dot sizes on both sides, nice!

I am itching to go thrift shopping again! It's such a thrill when you find rare items at the UK-UK and you can also get them for cheap prices! Planning to go this Sunday to my favorite spot :P Sharin some of my favorites... again, if you want to see more, please see my first post here Thrift Finds in Manila (Part 1) :)

Got this black satchel for 150 pesos, I just love the stud and skull details! It has one flaw though, other than that it's ok over-all.
