We are two friends, both addicted to shopping and we love to do so while not spending an obscene amount of money. One lives in Barcelona and the other one in Denmark. With this blog we want to share our shopping results with each other as well as trends we like. If you want ideas of how to shop economically in different places from around Europe, feel free to follow our blog as we are happy to share our experiences with you.

But the absolut best thing about this trend is, that you can make it yourself!! I have turned a pair of shoes from last seacon into a faschion scoop just by adding some rivets! and it cost me next to nothing! So go to your local hobby store and get your rivets - and 1,2,3 you have your one fashionable unike item for this season! I used them on my old shoes - but you can also use them on e.g. bags and clothes...

The other day I went to Maremagnum. It's a shopping centre by the harbor of Barcelona where you can find the most common shops which you also will find on the big shopping streets. The advantages with this place are 1) a roof over your head if it should be raining (not likely in Barcelona) and 2) and most importantly; they are open every day of the year (except the 25th of December and the 1st of January).
In Maremagnum I went by H+M, a small shop comparing to the big H+M shops you will find in Portal del Angel (one of the main shopping streets in the centre), but as it’s small it’s also easier to grasp. Luckily they had just started their mid season sales, discounting a lot of clothes to the price of 10 and 5 €. And I manage to find some bargains...
I bought a striped t-shirt (furthest to the left), which was not on sales but had the low price of 5,95€. Then I found a cute summer top, slightly transparent, with a ribbon around the waist (in the middle) and at a cost of 5€, discounted from 19,90€. And then I found a short black/grey striped cardigan (on the right), perfect for office use also for 5€, discounted from 14,95€.
I said it before and I'll say it again; I'll never get tired of shopping in H+M...
Outlets are a great way to amplify your wardrobe without having to spend a lot of money.
There are many outlets in Barcelona, spread all over the city. Not far from where I live, there is a street only with outlet shops where you get find great bargains.
Yesterday I went by Mango Outlet, without a doubt my favorite store on that street.
With outlets you have to have a lot of patience and a little bit of luck. In the Mango outlets they sell two kinds of lines; the "taras" meaning clothes from this season but with mistakes and often with a 50% or more discount. Then they sell clothes and accessories from past seasons (what ever did not get sold in the shops and during the sales) among which you can find clothes with starting at a 30% discount. Sometimes you find many nice things and sometimes nothing at all, depending on if they just brought new stocks or not. It is recommendable to go to the outlets during sales season (in Barcelona they start the 7th of January and the 1st of July), when you will find all the already discounted clothes on sales and you can clothes for ridiculously cheap prices.
I found this really cute white top (see picture above), discounted from 24,90€ to 11,99€ and now 7,99 €.
