One of my fave charity shop finds is the most gorgeous, girlie, fluffy, floaty skirt ever. Tiered with sparkles and lace, it drips stylishly and cost me a mere £5.99.
If you look closely, you can see that it is originally from Pink Soda and was a trifle more expensive. That is when I get a total buzz.
Planning to wear it over Christmas I think, which seems a long way off, but it seems the right time to wear it. I think it will look pretty with my pink ruffly shoes or my brown suede knee boots (the latter were a bargain £5 from a charity shop in Bath and are from Sasha). I made a bee line for them straight away but another girl tried to loiter behind me hoping I would put them down. Never!
I don't have time now but will post the boots up later.
Here is the floaty skirt though.
I wonder why someone decided to buy it and then donate it brand new. Well, it's gone to a happy new home, that's the main thing.
Off to a friend's wedding tomorrow, hope the weather will be ok for her. Children will be with my parents so it gives me and the husband a fab day and evening together.
I don't drink any more, it just doesn't agree with me, so I quite like being the only stone cold sober woman on the dance floor, and intend to dance my socks off.
Not that I will actually be wearing socks though to a wedding. Not a good look. I shall be wearing an outfit that cost next to nothing though, although not from a charity shop, sadly.
