Just read a book by India Knight called The Thrift Book - Live Well & Spend Less and there is loads of ideas & websites listed for fashion & beauty.
I bought it from Tescos (in their 2 books for £7.00) Its very MSE.

Sorry can't do links, just tried and got a whole massive page of amazon stuff. If anyone else can that would be great.

Found it http://www.amazon.co.uk/Thrift-Book-Live-Well-Spend/dp/1905490372/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1249054914&sr=8-1

Here's one from snowedunderitall posted earlier today

www.bigwardrobe.com

It's a clothes swapping/selling site, maybe an idea for all those fab clothes that 'get lost' and don't attract any bids on ebay!

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Is that because they didnt advertise them in the camping section

Lots of useful general tips here for making sure you don't waste money on bras that don't fit you properly; whether you end up buying from this retailer or not! Also includes a bra-fitting demo video!

Edited to add a link to a recent thread on the Shop But Don't Drop Board with lots of links to bra retailers

One dress worn differently, everyday for a year

This challenge was set up as part of the Akanksha Project, fundraising for children's education in India.

Thanks to absnasm for supplying this link on another thread!

I think this is a lovely idea by East. If you have a special event and don't know what to wear or need fashion ideas they offer an online Personal Stylist.
