Bag yourself a bargain with our guide on finding the best pre-loved pieces
-

1 TAKE YOUR TIME
From scrolling through the internet to rummaging through the rails in your favourite charity shop, second-hand shopping can be time-consuming, but it's worth the effort when you finally find your dream piece. You can cut time by visiting vintage stores that have already edited a small selection, such as One Scoop Store, which stocks a beautifully curated line of pre-loved finds. 'Have a wish list on your phone and keep adding to it - that way you can search online quickly and easily,' says Holly Watkins, pre-loved fashion expert and founder of One Scoop Store. 'Remember that second-hand shopping can take a little longer to find the perfect piece - that's also the joy of it!'
