Ins and Outs of being organised!

Thanks to the Sunday Times List, I was suitably inspired to hunt down a hoodie at the Salvation Army today-voila, not one, but two Gap hoodies were suitably found!

A red sweatshirt style one and a grey velour shrunken style for a total of £6.48!! Nice and cosy for autumn!!

Afterwards, I took a look in one of the cheap and cheerful clothes shops in the High Road, one that I very rarely go in. I only found a new black leather Steve Madden studded belt for only £3!! I was very pleased, as this was more the sort of thing I was looking for! I will post pictures soon.

These were the Ins. When I got home, I did yet another declutter for the charity shop of 2 tops, 2 dresses and 2 pairs of shoes. These will be Out tomorrow!

I now have my drawers and wardrobes as I want them-my winter knits are in 3 drawers, a winter dress drawer, a summer drawer, a vintage drawer, 1 wardrobe has my coats and jackets and my other wardrobe has my 'designer collection' items, jeans, tops, belts and bags!! I love to be organised and have things 'just so'!!

Autumn warmers

This was my outfit for shopping on Saturday. The morning was quite cool, so I wore my lambswool long line cardigan with my new scarf from the Ethnic shop in the local High Road. I am very impressed with the scarfs in here, I've just returned from the dentist with Christopher this evening and bought another one for £1. The one in the picture was bought with about 6 others last month-the others were £2 each and are in plum, purple, green, gold-ideal shades for Autumn.

M&S lambswool cardigan, Salvation Army, £3.49, Gap grey vest, Cancer research, £4, 7 For all Mankind jeans, RSPCA, £4.99, brown leather Topshop fringed bag, boot sale, £1
