Read on to hear Bella's thoughts on what makes shopping second-hand worth your time, the homewares section, and the power of a well-placed compliment.

Although it might seem a bit late in the year to talk about summer fashion I actually think that these times of seasonal transition are often when we are the most in need of style inspiration. With this in mind, I decided to venture to my local Salvos and try to style a few outfits that would fit with the end of summer vibes - and hopefully inspire both myself and the readers of this blog to take advantage of our last few weeks of warm (or warm-ish) weather by wearing some fun summery (or summery-ish) looks.

In the first instalment of our new 'Customer Profiles' blog series, we hear from stylist, blogger, and Salvos Stores Ambassador Faye De Lanty about the joys of shopping second-hand and her latest designer op shop finds.

To give you a taste of the amazing stuff you can find on the Salvos online store, I went through the site and picked out my top ten favourite pieces available at the moment.
