So this is my other thrifty find! It's a real leather jacket, woohoo! I've been wanting a black one for a while and this little number just happened to come along. I purchased it in Cancer Research for £10. It's a small and fits really well, it's lined and has a faux fury collar. I know for a fact I'm going to wear it to death.
I always like to wash clothing items I get from charity shops just so I know they're clean. But because this is real leather it said dry clean only. So I asked our local dry cleaners how much it would be and they said £35! They must be having a giraffe. So I put some washing powder in a bowl of warm water and wiped the collar and the inside. The jacket wasn't dirty at all and is in really good condition but know I have peace of mind.
I can't wait until the next time I stumble across a hidden treasure!
