Racer back = that cut of vest top where from the front it looks like a normal vest top but on the back the two straps sort of meet in the middle and it curves in so it shows off your shoulder blades. Never seen it as a cardigan before though!

I've never been to the bingo, always fancied it whilst at uni, but never gtot round to it, but have finally persuaded one of my other bingo-virgin friends to go with me, so think we'll be trying the local one next week!!

I was thinking the same thing as I saw it on another thread. If it's got a racer back what do the arms attach to?

Afternoon All!

Definately an autumnal nip in the air this morning at the car boot sale. I'm looking forward to the winter now as I've taken advantage of the British Airways sale and booked a December getaway...yipeee!:j

I need to sort out my Car Boot haul into selling and keeping piles then it's another afternoon of eBaying, lots of wrapping and photographing and listing to do before the weekend kicks off.

Today I'm dressed in:
Vintage gold satin shift dress with turquoise, pink and red Baroque print (£3 Chazza shop)
Black leggings (Pressie from a pal)
Black TopShop angora-mix longline cardi (Car boot 50p)
Vintage tooled leather cowboy boots (50p)
Vintage tooled leather saddle bag worn across the body (£1 chazza shop)
Piles of silver bangles, big tribal rings (India)
Chandelier earrings with off-white stones (Pressie)

Have a smashing afternoon.
Goanmad xx

Guessing it will be a sleeveless one, more like a knitted waistcoat??

Or like a shrug? I've got a 'cardie' I got in Portugal years ago that's effectively just sleeves (we call it my 'sleeves':rotfl:)
