Woman spots Gucci bag in charity shop and is floored by price tag
A woman popped into her local charity store and spotted a Gucci bag on display in a glass cabinet alongside some jewellery but was amazed after clocking how much it was being sold for A woman got lucky after spotting a Gucci bag in a charity shop for an absolute steal. Gucci is a prominent, world renowned, luxury design house founded in Italy in 1921. It offers an array of handbags, clothing and accessories, shoes and even home decoration. Gucci also boasts a fragrance and cosmetics line under the name Gucci Beauty. Typically, the luxury retailer's bag prices vary. The brand's Ophidia mini bag, crafted in beige and white GG Supreme canvas, is currently priced at £610 to purchase directly from its website, for example. On the higher end of the spectrum, its Diana medium tote bag - which comes in six colours and is constructed in leather - is available for £3,170. Vintage Gucci bags can be especially expensive, particularly if they're from a limited edition release or rare. On eBay, a limited edition Gucci Crocodile Bag is available from £24,086.72. Many bargain hunting fashion lovers turn to charity shops on the hunt for stylish clothing and accessories at a fraction of the cost. Those looking to make more sustainable fashion choices and avoid buying fast fashion similarly visit charity and secondhand shops when looking to pad out their wardrobes. There's plenty of options available which allow people to shop for less while supporting a good cause, or simply snap up some much needed bargains while the cost of living continues to rise. Discount chain store Goodwill boasts more than 150 outlets across the United States and Canada, where it offers bargain hunters 'hundreds of thousands of unique items up for grabs at any given time, including art, books, vinyl records, clothing, home décor, jewellery, musical instruments, sports, toys, and more'. One woman ventured into her local Goodwill store in northern California and was amazed after spotting a Gucci bag for sale. It wasn't on the shop floor with the rest of the items, it was alongside the jewellery in a glass display case which led the woman to deduce 'it was real'. There are many fake copies of designer goods often sold as though they're the real deal. If you're buying a designer item from a secondhand source, make sure you have it authenticated before splashing the cash. The woman shared her Gucci find on Facebook with the caption 'Gucci crossbody found at Goodwill today', where she declared the bag to be a genuine Gucci number after the serial number was checked. It was on offer for just $49.99 (£36.82) but as the woman is a 'regular' client, they allowed her to have a slight discount and sold it to her for $44.99 (£33.13). The woman didn't want to share the exact location of the store where she found the designer item because she was worried about getting in 'trouble' with 'some managers'.

'Gorgeous' designer perfume gets shoppers 'so many compliments'
There's currently an offer on the floral scent allowing shoppers to snap up two free gifts LookFantastic is now stocking Gucci Beauty and when buying full size 100ml perfumes from the range shoppers can look forward to a complimentary beauty pouch and 10ml bottle of Gucci Gorgeous Gardenia. The Gucci Gorgeous Flora range is now all available on the beauty giant with the free gifts available for anyone who spends £125 on the brand. The 10ml bottles come in at £26 while the 30ml are £70 so there is the option to invest in all four scents to qualify for the beauty pouch for those who don't want to commit to a full sized 100ml bottle for £138. As the name suggests all the perfumes derive inspiration from different flowers although our team perfume expert's personal favourite is Gorgeous Orchid. It blends together vibrant vanilla notes with a fresh marine ozonic accord. Britney Fantasy Intimate Fantasy (£49, Boots) is another example of an ozonic gourmand but it does have more of a fruity touch. Jada Jones said: "I'm not always drawn to floral scents, with my personal tastes definitely sitting more in the gourmand perfume space, so I was pleasantly surprised with Gorgeous Orchid which is inspired by the vanilla orchid. I love vanilla scents, to the point that my friends and family all tease me about how obsessed I am. "There is definitely a floral touch to this perfume but it's very wearable. I don't reach for this everyday but it's a great option for those looking for the sweet spot between floral and gourmand. The longevity really impressed me, if I put this on in the morning I can still smell it that night, which is quite refreshing when I've been having to top up Ariana Grande's Lovenotes (£60, Superdrug) hourly." It's not just Jada that's a fan, Gorgeous Orchid has pulled in over 1,900 five-star ratings on LookFantastic. One shopper said: "I love this my new favourite fragrance, obsessed with it now. I received so many compliments whilst wearing it and it lasts so long." Another, who isn't usually drawn to florals, said: "I'm not usually a fan of floral perfumes, but this has surprised me. It smells fresh and clean and different to anything else on the market. I had two compliments on it both really positive! It's definitely going on my Christmas list." One shopper found the scent to be overpoweringly floral, saying: "Not the one for me. It's very sweet which I like but I found it very over powering with the floral scent. Definitely has long lasting staying power. If you like a floral scent you will love this." One shopper even claimed to find a coconut water note, writing: "This fragrance is a sweet floral with a bright opening that feels a bit aquatic. After a while it turns into a light floral that is slightly powdery, and I can detect a coconut water scent as well that almost reminds me of the beach. It's a lovely designer fragrance if you like bright and soft floral scents."
