Thrift-ola recommends: The Stylist’s Rail

I swapped my usual abandoned car park or misty field in the middle of nowhere to a much classier venue for my thrifting adventures this weekend.

A fun morning of seeking out vintage at The Stylist's Rail.

A fun morning of seeking out vintage at The Stylist’s Rail.

Last year I attended a fun Pinterest Party called Pinned it, Made it run by the awesome Plum and after stalking her a little on Twitter was excited to see her latest venture The Stylist’s Rail where you get the opportunity to delve into the cast offs of London’s Stylists and Fashion Editors. Yes please! On Saturday morning I rallied my gals pals and we rolled up our sleeves and got to work trawling the healthy dose of rails in the Hoxton Hotel fuelled by a few free GnT cocktails and meringues by the Meringue Girls. I was really impressed by the variety of stock, of course I was up to my usual antics finding creme egg bags, hologram ice creams and kitten tins but you could pick up anything from a Topshop jumpsuit or a Cos shirt to a 1950s handbag or a handmade bondage dress. The prices were fair and the stall holders let us a haggle a little. All in all I highly recommend heading down to the next one, follow their Twitter to find out date & location. I of course shouldn’t get too used to this as next week it’ll be back to a bacon butty in a freezing cold car park…
