How much did you pay for your outfit that you are wearing today cost?

[Britpopbaby]

Total cost £73 with all bar one piece second hand.

@weareallcats I have just been on the Cabbages & Roses website. It was like going back in time to Droopy & Brown in the late 80s/early 90s. I think I may just have fallen in love :).
Do they have a shop?

I don’t think they do anymore and the current collection is the last ready to wear 😥. The founder died fairly recently. I’ve bought waaay more than I usually would, but last chance and all that. There is usually a fair amount on ebay, but people often want silly money.

It had to be too good to be true.

I know, it’s so sad. If you are looking for a coat though, it is definitely worth investing - they are a joy to wear.

Today was The Big Shop with DH and 2 school runs.

not the greatest photo....

Oh, I was hoping it was the silver skirt! Thank you 🤗

A pleasure. I spent ages looking for a top to go with the skirt. And ended up with the Autograph cotton shirt (which is lovely quality). I have worn the skirt with an oversized Cos turtle neck and knee high black boots, which works v well. I'm looking for a cropped cashmere cardigan, as well, but it needs to be the right length - so I'll keep looking. In the spring I'll wear it with my white Cos cropped t-shirt. I wore these shoes with it yesterday. More info than you needed, but I can't help myself!

Been to a football match!
