England's Rose Sharon Searle chronicles all things thrifty on her blog Sharon Rose Pixie, proving that great designer finds don't have to cost a million dollars. "I love to spend a few hours browsing in the charity shops or boot sales," she says. "It's great to expect the unexpected"

Peep her cute style -- and incredible thrift-store scores -- below.

Your best bargain find: I've had a few -- Gucci clutch for £4, Gucci bag for £6, Louis Vuitton wallet for £1 (authentic), See by Chloe dress £2.75 (pictured, left), to name but a few. My best find was an immaculate vintage Ossie Clark dress at a charity shop for £7. I later sold it for over £300 to Resurrection boutique in Los Angeles.
