Tagged!!

The lovely Nothing Elegant tagged me last week, for 6 of my quirks-well here goes!

1. I've just recently got back into listening to the radio-its something I really enjoy, but don't do enough!

2. I've a dentist appointment at the end of this month, so I've been ultra obssesive with cleaning my teeth-I don't want a telling off again!

3.Am I the only gal who adores buying clothes but then ends up wearing the same sort of clothes over and over again? Jeans, leggings, tops are rotated regularly, while my lovely dresses, hang there, waiting patiently to be worn!!

4.Be prepared-I've completed my winter wardrobe shopping and we are now having an Indian summer-typical! Mind you, I'm not digging out the summer dresses just yet!

5.My favourite food is currently paella, curries and pasta with carbonara sauce-no, not all together!

6.I still love blogging!! Yes, I have my up and down days, even contemplate jacking it in, but on the whole, still loving it and still plan to continue-yay!!

Consider yourself tagged if you want to share your innermost thoughts and quirks with us all!!

My new 'perfect' black leather jacket!!

I found one, I found one-haha!! You all know I wasn't over impressed with the last black leather jacket I bought-it was only £3, but I still wasn't overkeen. Anyway, that jacket, 2 other jackets and a blouse and skirt were passed to my sister in law who has daughters so I don't know who ended up with what!! Last week, I tracked down the jacket of my dreams-it has chunky zipper pockets and studs on the collar, cuffs and waistband, plus it is a really fitted style and the softest leather too!!

I found it at Sue Ryder Care charity shop for £10 and I know it will go with everything and anything in my wardrobe-the search is now over!!

What are you searching for that you have yet to find or purchase?

Leopardprint Love and Stud overload!

Well, this was my outfit for boot sale Sunday-it was freezing and foggy early morning, so I wrapped up accordingly and this is my vintage faux fur leopard print coat that I said I would show you all!! Its quite showy, so I like to wear all black (or jeans) to dress it down!


I did really well again today-I scored 2 stud belts-the skinny one was 50p and the wider was was £1 and they are both leather too!! My best bargain has to be these black leather and suede studded cowboys boots for-50p!!! I got to the mans stall and I only had 50p and a £50 note in my purse (for food shopping later!). He saw me trying on the boots and said I could have them for a £1, so I told him what I had left was 50p, so he said I could have them!!





So, quite a productive weekend for the boot sales-thats all for now folks!!

Boot Sale Saturday!!!

For a change, the weather was gorgeous when we got up Saturday morning. So hubby and I set off for the boot sale in Chigwell Essex for a stroll and some much anticiapted bargains. I thought to take a few pictures to show you what the boot sales are like-here I am, enjoying an early morning tea and burger!!!

I'm wearing a purchase made mid week-my 'perfect' black leather jacket, that I found in Sue Ryder Charity shop for £10! I 'm so pleased with it, I will show better pictures of it later in the week!!! Anyhow, the boot sale for me was really good, I managed to get a black padded parka for winter for £5, a black boyfriend style merino wool cardigan for £3, 2 grey tops for £1 and some gorgeous biker ankle boots for £1-I'll show these later in the week too!! So, this week I've spent £20, but quite a haul of needed goodies!!


The rest of Saturday was spent relaxing and visiting my mum in hospital-she broke her ankle last week, poor thing, so I've been on hospital duty all this week. Hopefully, she can come home midweek. Its no fun for her being bedbound, but she's bearing up brilliantly. She had to have an op to put things right, so lots of rest, recuperation and patience needed!!
