    Thank you, DianneB! I haven't worn a skirt since my graduation (1996!) so have no idea what to wear with it, as a top or shoes/boots.


    Would you say it is wintery or a summer skirt?

    Popped into our local Barnados 99p shop and found a lightly worn Pure cashmere tank top.

    If you know the brand Pure, then you'll know how expensive they are (about £79), so I'm a happy bunny.

    Week-end finds......

    2 more matching ceramic plant pot holders in cream for 25p each :)

    Dinky nutmeg grater with combined nut holder thingy 25p :)

    BNWT grey 'soft touch' Tshirt 50p. Had a strange dusty white mark on the front which would not rub off but took a chance it would come out in the wash. 2 x washes and a dollop of Vanish later and ta daa....vanished! :D

    All from the local community chazza shop.

    Age Concern had a pair of Toast jeans just waiting for me this morning!


    I needed a new pair and my last ones were about £35 from Per Una so I'm really pleased with this buy.

    I'd wear it now with a lighter coloured top and then again in the autumn!! Perhaps look for a top in one of the skirt colours for autumn - but don't listen to me I look like a bag lady most of the time, I just love a posh skirt!

    Thanks, DianneB! Almost knee high boots OK with it for now? (I have a long, reasonably thin body and stumpy little legs!!)

    Leominster today and a Next top that looks brand new for £2.99 from the Oxfam shop.
    Might be worth a trip Frith?
    Normal people worry me.

    Feel like I'm letting the worcestershire side down as not been on the prowl for a while. some great bargains being posted

    a very brief visit into the BHF on the tything yesterday bagged me a lovely big picture for £1.99 just wanted the frame
  • Can't believe how many worcestershire people there are. I must be going on the wrong day as I can't find anything in that kemp shop
  • There was a good charity shop by boots longdem coleham in Shrewsbury not been there for a couple of years but if it's still open it's bargainous. I got. 2 decorative mirrors for £5 and a vanity case for £1 once from there.
