In order to do this in proper Friday style, I wore;
So I started off being sensible but got a bit giddy. Well it is Friday.
I got a few looks on the walk to school as usual, I am getting used to that. There's nothing particularly eyebrow-raising about this dress, is there? Skirt-raising, maybe.
One of my charity-shopped bargains I bagged the other day was this red and black wool dress by Kay Bee of Leicester.
Not much hanger appeal, as I believe the phrase goes. But I love the label, and look, the dress still has a brooch in place, presumably just where the previous owner left it. For some reason that makes me rather sad.
Now it's a little big for me but I'm hoping that with the addition of a belt, I can work the whole Mad Men look. What do you think?
You must see the resemblance! Joan and I - it's like looking in a mirror. Yeah, I know - dream on!
Ahh, Joan, she's sooo gorgeous.
Sheffield has 3 vintage fairs happening tomorrow, what are the chances of that happening? I am determined to work my way through them all, but have a restricted budget, so I must NOT peak too early.
Wish me luck, and I hope you all have a fine weekend.

Gotcha! Finally I can follow your blog! Hope you found lots of good cheap things, I SO SO love the vintage fairs. Both the dresses look great, the first one reminds me a bit of the tv ads for Razzamattaz pantyhose in the 70s, where a girl walking down the street in a twirly dress made everyones head turn :)
You styling genius! I adore both frocks, the gypsy one is absolutely freaking gorgeous and the wool frock with the ankle boots is killer.
How were the vintage fairs? A choice of three? I can't wait to see what you got. xxxx
Your so stylish and you have a fabulous figure and your hair is gorgeous and you look the same as you did 20 year ago . . . . . . I think I hate you!
