10 Fashionable Ways to Tackle the Credit Crunch
By Julia Robson
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.
