So if you've got a wardrobe full of clothes and shoes you never wear, you've come to the right place and will need to listen up.
The fashion fan who has cashed in £5,641.07 through the marketplace app, confirmed that not only are white maxi skirts selling instantly at the moment, but there's an old brand that is sure to fill your wallet.
The content creator and Vinted enthusiast, who buys and sells on the app 'every single day,' took to social media to share her top tips and tricks, leaving many totally stunned.
The blonde-haired beauty, who is a top Vinted seller with over 500 five star reviews, said: 'These are the brands and the items that are selling really well on Vinted at the moment.
'I add things to my favourites and then wait and see what sells - and all of these have sold and are doing really well as listings on Vinted at the moment.
'So whether you are selling your old bits and bobs or you are a reseller, these are the things that you should be listing.'
Maxi skirts
First things first, Chloe stressed that maxi skirts in any colour are selling 'so well on Vinted at the moment.'
In particular, she recognised that white tiered maxi skirts will move fast, as she beamed: 'I buy maxi skirts all the time, but specifically the tiered ones that are becoming more popular.
'Specifically ones that are vintage - so if you have one with an old label in or it's Jane Norman or any sort of quirky brands, they are selling so fast.
'Every single maxi skirt that I add to my favourites is sold in 30 minutes. It's insane.

'So if you have an old maxi skirt or if you are wanting to make a profit, maxi skirts are really really good at the moment.'
Jane Norman
Secondly, Chloe revealed that Jane Norman is one brand that is popular on the app at the moment.
She continued: 'This brand was really popular back in the early 2000s, but it's slowly coming back into fashion and it is doing so well on Vinted.
'Just make sure you price your items correctly, do your research.
'I've seen some people uploading stuff that is Jane Norman, thinking that it's not worth anything for about £2 and then it gets sold and relisted for £20 plus.
'It's a very, very popular brand at the moment.'
Do you need to pay tax on items sold on Vinted?
QUICK facts on tax from the team at Vinted...
The only time that an item might be taxable is if it sells for more than £6,000 and there is profit (sells for more than you paid for it). Even then, you can use your capital gains tax-free allowance of £3,000 to offset it.
Generally, only business sellers trading for profit (buying goods with the purpose of selling for more than they paid for them) might need to pay tax. Business sellers who trade for profit can use a tax-free allowance of £1,000, which has been in place since 2017.

Jellycats
If you're in need of some cash and your little one has shelves full of Jellycats, you may want to think about selling some, as Chloe recognised: 'These always do well on Vinted.
'Just make sure that if you are clearing out your children's toys, you are checking the tags - even if it's books, some books are by Jellycat, so have a look at the labels.
'Make sure that you aren't giving anything away or selling something at a car boot sale that is actually worth quite a lot.
'Jellycats are increasing in popularity, so these do so well on Vinted.'
She also advised: 'Just make sure that they are genuine - there are a lot of fakes. Google how to tell if they're real.'
Trainers
As well as this, Chloe urged sellers to upload their trainers to the marketplace app, as she explained: 'Trainers always do well on Vinted.
'If you have a pair of old New Balance or Nikes, specifically vintage, early 90s sort of shoes, they do really well.
'Some of the newer designs do quite well on Vinted too, so if you have some trainers, don't just think that they're not worth anything and sell them for 50p at a car boot.
'You need to actually do your research and make sure that you price them accordingly on Vinted.
'People buy and sell them all the time. So if you are looking to sell for profit, check out car boot sales and have a look and just see what trainers people are selling.'
Sheer tops
But that's not all, as according to this Vinted user, mesh, embellished and sequin sheer tops do 'so well on Vinted.'
'It's specifically the brands, you know, Lipsy, Miss Selfridge, old New Look - those sorts of brands are doing really well.
'Make sure you do your research - don't just sell it for £2,' she voiced.
Crochet items
Similarly, if you've got crochet items you haven't worn in years, you'll need to get uploading them quick.
Chloe claimed that 'anything crochet,' including bags and ponchos, will sell fast.
Why I hate Vinted, a real-life view
Fabulous Associate Editor Sarah Barns opens up on why she hates Vinted:
It's the king of second-hand fashion but I hate Vinted.
There I said it. Yes, it stops items going into landfill. Yes, it helps create additional side-hustle income for many.
And yes, you can get things at bargain prices. But it is just not my (shopping) bag.
From personal experience, I've bought 'cheap' bundles of children's clothes only for them to arrive dirty and misshapen.
Plus, with postage and buyer protection they didn't feel like such a great deal. I much prefer going to my local charity shop or supermarket for kids' stuff.
I've also bought more premium high-street items - a dress from Arket and a skirt from Cos - only to find they didn't fit properly and the colours were faded.
I attempted a bout of selling stuff but gave up after my £110 Veja trainers got lost in the post and I spent two hours on the phone to Royal Mail.
A major gripe with it is that it still encourages you to spend, spend, spend. I'm not sure I needed the items I did purchase, I just didn't want to miss out.
Also, the reselling of fast-fashion items - a £5 Shein top on Vinted for £17.50 - makes me feel a bit queasy.
Clothes shopping has become a daily hobby for a lot of people when really it should be something that's done once or twice a year as a necessity.
But the 18 million Vinted app users clearly disagree with me.
She acknowledged: 'People wear a lot of crochet items just as a little cover up for holiday and festivals and things.
'I'll add some ponchos to my favourites and they sell so quickly.
'Specifically ones from Per Una, old Marks & Spencer, those sorts of brands."
Silk items from Monsoon
Finally, Chloe revealed that anything silk from Monsoon is sure to make you cash fast.
She concluded: 'Anything that is Monsoon that is silk - I have sold so much of this.
'I think I've sold about five silk Monsoon items within the last month, it does really, really well - specifically little cami tops and dresses.
'Make sure you check your labels, because nine times out of 10 people don't realise that they are silk and then someone else gets a bargain, looks, sees that it's silk and then puts it on for double the price.'
Social media users react
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ chloe_chandlerx, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 101,500 views, 1,282 likes and 146 comments.
Social media users were thankful for Chloe's advice and raced to the comments to express this.
One person said: 'Great advice, I have a few Jane Norman dresses to list.'
Another added: 'Yep I put an asymmetrical maxi skirt out and it sold really quickly.'
A third commented: 'I wish I'd kept all of my extremely noughties clothes now.'
Meanwhile, a Vinted beginner beamed: 'New to Vinted. Loving everyone's tips, thank you.'

Vogue Williams reveals the secret to her incredible figure and it involves AVOIDING salads
Vogue Williams has given an insight into how she maintains her incredible figure and revealed the one rule she swears by. The Irish presenter, 39, is known for her love of exercise and often gives an insight into her health and fitness regime on her social media. In recent days, she has been showing off her frame while strutting her stuff in an array of stylish bikinis during a family holiday in Spain. And ahead of her 40th birthday in October, Vogue spoke about how she keeps fit and healthy and revealed the one nutrition tip she always keeps to. Though it might be a stereotype that celebrities are eating clean with salads, Vogue insisted she would never have a salad as a main meal because it isn't filling enough. 'I have eggs with toast or porridge in the morning. And I don't have salad as a meal ever - salads are side portions,' she told Closer Magazine. 'When people order salad for lunch, I'm like ''you're going to be hungry in half an hour!'' I just can't!' Vogue exercises five or six times a week, fitting in 30-minute workouts from the fitness app Flexy into her busy family life whenever she can. The media personality said she also keeps active by walking her kids Theodore, six, and Gigi, four, to school and her youngest son Otto, three, to nursery. Vogue has always kept a keen focus on her fitness and told MailOnline how she never regrets a workout and kept training until the day she gave birth to Otto. Speaking while pregnant with Otto in May 2022, she shared: 'Someone asked me yesterday when will I stop training and I said ''well it depends on what I'm doing the day when I give birth''. 'I'll be training right up until the very end because I think if you feel up to it then you might as well do it. I wouldn't train if I didn't feel like it, so I judge it like that. 'It makes me feel better, I never regret a training session.' Vogue loves keeping active and is so experienced in the gym that she knew exactly what she would and wouldn't be able to do while pregnant. 'I do a lot of weights that's the funny thing as well, people will see you picking up a bag and they're like ''don't do that'' and I'm thinking I was just squatting weights, I am able to pick up the weights,' she added. Despite being fitness-focused, Vogue - who is married to Spencer Matthews - said she never puts pressure on her body, especially after giving birth. 'I had a really good birth after Gigi and I got back on the bike again quite quickly but weights take a little longer,' she shared. 'I would be weary of doing weights before so looking after my body first is more important to me rather than getting straight back into training.' Her husband Spencer is also a fitness fanatic and recently completed 30 marathons in 30 days across the Jordanian desert - though Vogue said she doesn't intend to reach those levels herself. Last summer, Spencer made history when he broke the world record for the most consecutive marathons run on sand with his epic fitness challenge. He raised over £500,000 for Global's Make Some Noise and described it as his biggest achievement aside from his marriage to Vogue and their three children.

Eager to alert others to the discounts, Arron took to social media and uploaded snaps of his finds, leaving many gobsmacked.

Alongside his post, Arron wrote: 'The biggest sale I've ever seen at M&S!' He then advised those on a budget to 'run, don't walk to grab a bargain.' Thanks to the 50% off sale, which is in M&S stores nationwide, shoppers will be able to stock up on gorgeous bag charms, which are super trendy. There's also jewellery that's been slashed, with bracelets, necklaces and statement earrings on the cheap. If you're lucky enough to be jetting abroad any time soon, there's stunning bags that will be perfect for evenings on holiday. I've found the perfect summer top from M&S, and I'm even more excited now I can finally shop there online again And that's not all, as there's loads of shoes that have been slashed too - you'll find trainers, sandals, and even the popular Hermes dupe slip-ons.

Why Everyone Is Loving M&S Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale revealed to Fabulous why M&S is the shop of the moment. She explained: 'M&S has really pulled it out of the bag this season, there is so much good product to be excited about. 'A brand once known for its 'frumpy fashion' that notion is long gone with it now being one of the leading high street stores for womenswear. 'Its handbag range in particular is super strong with them selling 170% vs plan, with lots more designer dupes for just a fraction of the price. 'The brand is now also the #1 for style perceptions, compared to the #3 spot it had last year, this comes from a really strong design team focused on modernising the brand, not only taking into consideration how the pieces look, but how easy they are to wear also. 'Price is also a big factor with you being able to get many good quality pieces all for under £30. 'After having a sneak peak of the upcoming collection there are so many more amazing pieces that are dropping over the next few months to keep your eyes on. 'Think leopard print dresses, colourful co-ords, embroidered boho jackets, plus lots of swimwear and amazing accessories, as well as great wardrobe staples that will last year on year.' There's also cargo trousers, jeans, cardigans and plenty more clothes you won't want to miss. To top things off, you'll even find slippers in the sale too, so if you can't afford to break the bank on Uggs, you'll need to get down to M&S, and fast. And if you thought that was it, think again, as there's even candles, vases and light-up signs that will add style to your home in an instant. There's even bedding in the sale too - with fitted sheets and duvet sets that have been slashed. But if you're looking to bag a bargain, you'll need to move fast, as these epic finds are sure to sell out quickly.
