Oooops I did it again…
Such a beautiful jacket non? Vintage 70’s, never been worn – was left over stock from a shop that when it closed down got packed away in an attic..light weight wool with that gorgeous navy edging…it was crying out for a new home and a bit of love…it would’ve quite frankly been cruel to walk on by…and the best bit? A mere £15……..sigh. Gotta seize these opportunities when they presents themselves hashtag you always see the best stuff a) When you’re not meant too or b) When you’re broke.
I bought it at a Christmas vintage fair in Belsize Park last weekend where I was very lucky to meet up with the lovely blogger Gabrielle from Wee Story Book.
Who can resist a cup a tea in a proper china and a good gossip surrounded by delights?
There were little secrets in every corner waiting to be explored.
This was a fantastic stall selling everything from Pucci to Gucci..Crystal the stall holder really knew her stuff.
Just a lovely day to pretend to Christmas shop and buy more stuff for me and dip into power of the Blogging Community. I hope we do it again in the New Year Gabrielle!
