ANY second-hand shopping aficionado will know there’s no better feeling than bagging a fab designer garment for a fraction of the price.
And that’s exactly what happened when one savvy shopper recently hit the charity shops only to find an absolute steal on a dress for her daughter.
Francesca is a thrifting whizz who regularly shares her fab finds on her TikTok page @FrancescaCharityShop, where she’s amassed more than 78k followers.
And in a recent clip, she wowed fans by revealing she’d spotted a gorgeous Burberry kids' dress scanning for a fraction of the price.
