I've been catching up on your blog and am very excited for you and the new vintage store gig. Every time I go to a UK charity shop and don't see any vintage I try not to think of what went into the rag bag (and I have asked to see the rag bag once or twice). joyatrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02460272074875273228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489237810886177584.post-43083792000753735092015-12-08T14:41:54.979-08:002015-12-08T14:41:54.979-08:00£10 for your coat, what a find that was.

Imagine my delight when I found one two days ago in a local thrift shop! With a price tag of $4!!! Oh my stars and garters!!! Alas, upon trying it on, it made me look as if I were playing dress-up in my grandma's closet. My 5'2" frame simply can't carry off the look. Do you suppose there is a red wool coat out there that would suit my stumpy self?

Have you been learning some Vix voodoo?! This one is such a beauty, I just love it. Red is a magic colour, it just injects life and I have to say I don't think you could top the way you've styled it, with that lovely green tweed skirt and a black top. It's perfect and you look amazing in it. Urgh, work work work. I haven't stopped this week, so today didn't drag myself out of bed until after 12. Just been laid out like a pancake or something else of your choosing which looks anaemic and lacks life. Thanks for the shop update. I like to know!!

Can you imagine? Anyway, yes perfect coat for the event, and any time you wear it. I own a single piece of Jaeger (a scarf) which I love. Your coat is an incredible find-isn't it mind blowing the things people with money will get rid of? <br /><br />Your skirt is beautiful-the colour, the fit-all envy worthy.

It always surprises me how shy a lot of people are about colour, not even daring to wear coloured tights instead of black. Now, I love all-black too (I went through a goth phase years ago...) but in the winter months I certainly appreciate a bit of colour.<br /><br />A tenner?
