Got your Christmas party outfit yet? If not then this is the event for you…

We've got knockout frocks at a knockdown prices, shoes, handbags, jewellery, whether it's glitz and glamour or more practical outfits you're after- there is always a wide range of styles and sizes at our second hand ladies fashions sale.

Did you know… Fashion production makes up 10% of humanity's carbon emissions, dries up water sources, and pollutes rivers and streams. Plus a shocking 85% of all textiles go to the dump each year (UNECE, 2018).

Why not do your bit for the planet while revamping your wardrobe?

🎬🍿🎥 Our film this week:

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (15)

Showtimes:

Friday, 7th November 7pm
Monday, 10th November 8pm
Wednesday, 12th November 2pm

Some doors bring you to your past. Some doors lead you to your future. And some doors change everything. Sarah (Margot Robbie) and David (Colin Farrell) are single strangers who meet at a mutual friend's wedding and soon, through a surprising twist of fate, find themselves on A Big Bold Beautiful Journey -- a funny, fantastical, sweeping adventure together ... and possibly getting a chance to alter their futures.

Time Out says: “So it’s What Dreams May Come meets Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, maybe?”

Starring; Margot Robbie; Colin Farrell; Phoebe Waller-Bridge

Directed by Kogonada
