Have bought a Whistles top off Vinted. I am going to an exhibition opening and will probably wear it. I was in John Lewis looking at clothes when I had twenty minutes spare in town on Saturday and I loved the Whistles stuff but it was wayyyy out of my price range at present. I got this as new top for £15. Hopefully it will fit and look good. It’s my favourite shade of green.Credit card 1800

I had a good day at the chaz yesterday, picking up two Kitchencraft anodised aluminium 20cm hemisphere cake pans for £1 each: https://uk.lifetimebrandseurope.com/masterclass-silver-anodised-20cm-hemisphere-cake-pan/
I also got a set of 5 of these stainless steel items for £1, thinking I could use them as serving dishes for nuts and other small nibbles. They are actually sommelier / tastevin cups - and the online prices are faintworthy!: https://armchairsommelier.com/learning-wine/tastevin-cup/

A quick dash round the 99p shop today….picked up a pure silk top, black silk georgette with pink embroidery by Silkland. Plan on wearing it with a pair of black slimfit ankle grazer trousers. Not sure about footwear???
Never heard of ‘tastevin cups’ before!

I popped into the Cornerstone and found a wine glass, a white fluffy coat, a blue cushion and a xmas wreath. I was hoping to do a wreath making workshop this winter but this way I have one spare if I don't. It all came to £11.50 which was good. I did want a parka coat with a furry hood and there was one in there, but I wanted green and it was light grey.7

I drove past a St Vincent's in Belfairs on my way out of town one evening this week - have you been there @Wednesday2000? Are the prices as out of touch as Westcliff branch?No man is worth crawling on this earth.
