De-lec-ta-ble

Aren't they just? The combination of colours and the prints are just so lemon-twisty-fresh that I almost wanna turn to them and say "good one!" (winks and clicks tongue, points two index fingers at them).

Please buy them and remove them from my sight!

Style for less, and we really do mean less :-)

We love it when shopaholics set up their own preloved blogs, especially those with exceptional taste. And that's exactly why you'll love The British Dream too. She's a stylish lass and she's opened up her closet to you-- let's raid it girls! ;-)

Can You Believe It?



A vintage blouse that is NOT oversized. Tailored to fit with a refreshing colour mix of checkers and the cherry on top of the cake - a sweet little bow! Wear it prim and proper with high waisted shorts or rock it out with black cigarette pants.

I'm Ole School

Loving these two vintage blouses. Definitely not too OTT but nevertheless unique in a way only vintage clothes can be. Subtle but effective detailing and a shocking colour coupled with a great cut. What else can a girl ask for?

Lace, Lace, Baby

Have been spotting lots of lace appearing on the runways lately. Which makes sense as these are somber times but sexy times too (ok, I made that rationale up but the runway thing is true, think Prada). So we at Thriftbook have decided to bring you a more affordable batch.

Tuck in and wear with bandage miniskirt for an updated look.

Sailing, sailing...

Sailor girl gets a dainty makeover with this utterly fab sailor tee with the cutest lil pussybow! Sweet in pastel blue and comfy as heck, it's the kind of top that you know you can be yourself in.

And if you need the perfect shoes to go with the top... Just when you think ballet flats couldn't get any cuter!

Black or White


Why not have two in one? This is oh-so-cool, it'll make you wanna skip fashion school.
Yeap, that sentence makes no sense.
A lot like spotting a top that you just KNOW you can't live without, don't you think?
Nod with me now.

Save The Cheerleader


The quirkiest I've seen so far in terms of vintage pieces. And isn't that what all vintage lovers are looking for? A piece of quirky?
"Hey, look, I'm working a cheerleader's jersey, aren't I cooler than cool?"

Though it's not easy to wear, I think it's definitely worth owning just for the cool factor itself. A true vintage collector's item!

Heart On Sleeve

Wear your art on your sleeve. Sorry bad pun. The art's not even on the sleeve. But just look at this! Sigh, it's worth putting up with a bad reviewer for.

Love Affair

I absolutely LOVE slightly oversized, slouchy, long top/minidress thingamajigs! People who are slightly lazy and have a boyish figure (i.e. flat chested) would understand this obsessive love that I have for things like that.

Sense & Sensibility

Get fashionably sensible with these pretty tops. Conservative? We think not! Just look at the details-- from silk tiered bib detail to cowl neck to lace hems, these are best paired with high waisted fitted skirts or even worn loosely over wool shorts and pixie flats for that androgynous take.



Pretty grey, RM14


Grey sofy, RM14



Victorian cardi, RM14

Sultry hugger

For some reason I'll always gravitate towards long tops because they make you look slimmer by elongating your body and hugging you right. Here's one that you'll love, especially with the inked graphic. Sultry.

Available at Once Loved
