Hi, I’m Julie Winters. Welcome to my weekly fashion vlog! If you are a regular follower of my vlog, you probably know that I often shop online, try things on at home, and send them back if they don’t suit me. But that’s not really a very green way to shop, so today’s vlog is about buying preloved or second-hand clothes. I really enjoy browsing in charity and vintage shops and I particularly like finding a bargain. If it’s good for the planet too – then everyone’s a winner! So here goes... Today I’m looking for a black jacket – because the colour goes with everything. I like this jacket – let’s try it on – Yes... it fits me too. Now, I’d like to find some jeans... I don’t mind buying used clothes, but it’s not always easy to find good quality second-hand jeans, because people wear them so often! These look good though... but let’s go and try them on in the changing room... Awesome! I’ve got a new jacket and a pair of jeans for just £15! 1 2 3 4 5 6
