I found a Helium leather jacket it a charity shop for £10.50. These jackets retai for around £175 usually. Perfect fit.

I got it to the checkout - "Oh, all the coats are half price now,, what with it being after Christmas."

£5.25. for thiss

That is a great jacket.

You look really great in that jacket, and to pull off wearing a leather biker jacket without looking like a big butch lesbo is worthy of a medal.

Nice! And well done. I'm chuffed when I find six balls of the same wool in a charity shop, must set my sights higher.

My mum got a £185 leather coat for £12 once... IN Marks and Spencers. Just came up as that price on the till. Must have been the last one or something. She literally ran out of the door.

Her friend has never forgiven her, as she paid full price for hers.

Nice one!I paid a fortune for my leather biker jackets,but had to have them for protection on the bike

....and no.....I'm not a big,butch lesbo.

I did the school run in it.

2 people asked me if I had lost weight

and Ds1's teacher asked me if I'd had a new hair cut

Am resigned to living in the leather jacket. It is also very WARM.
