I started today with all good intentions to get sorted for Goa but Stephen Squirrel decided to make a bed out of my holiday packing and then darlings Sarah in Oz and Helga in Kiwi land distracted me with on-line chat and hilarity.
Look at the naughty boy leaving cat hair all over my vintage frockery |
There's some good stuff on the telly later so other than the three dresses I finally got around to taking in it appears today's been a bit of a write-off.
Vintage mini dress worn with blueberry opaques and faux snake platforms, Balinese earrings (My Darling Helga), Tibetan silver choker (India) |
The 1970's dress was from a car boot sale last year, it was 20p and needed a bit of work to the hem as it had been chopped down from a maxi and left raw-edged. Nothing a bit of Wonda-Web couldn't cope with.
This blingy 1980's Renata of Italy iridescent clutch bag came from a charity shop complete with the matching shoes (in my size). I'm not very mitchy-matchy and never wear them together.
The bag even has a matching make-up mirror I found concealed in the zip pocket after I bought it.
