 With high street stores' profits plummeting faster than Sienna Miller's knickers, it has left many people wondering ‘where have all the shoppers gone?' Well, we can let you into a little secret. While every style-savvy girl knows that auction sites, like eBay, are great sources of quirky second-hand pieces, what many people don't know is that Oxfam has an online fashion shop boasting more than 100,000 clothes and accessories with prices starting at a very wallet friendly £2.50. Here fashionistas can browse and buy from a mix of designer pieces, one-off vintage gems and a collection of ethical clothes from the web-based charity store. What's more, it beats the hassle of bidding for your must-have piece, waiting on tenterhooks for days and the bitter feeling your left with when your dream handbag lands in the grubby hands of a rival bidder. This is sustainable fashion at its best - you can still get your shopping fix, but with that feelgood factor and it won't put too much of a dent in your bank account. Remember you read it here first.
