I have put together a list of items that I know I shall be "grazing" for in the charity shops next year. They have been on my covet list for some time but I am determined to hunt them out at rock bottom prices in 2013. The hunt is on and I shall keep you posted!
A black fake fur jacket. These are ten a penny usually in charity shops and its the right time of year to be looking. I had one when I was around 19 years old but someone spilt a drink down it in a club once and it was ruined. RIP.
A long black tuxedo jacket. Again, I had one years ago although I cannot remember what happened to it. I know it was in the sale from Next and I loved it to pieces but alas, it got lost along the way somehow.
A kilt. A bit mumsy I know but model Laura Bailey was photographed in one recently with a slouchy jumper and some biker boots and it looked really good. I have always liked them and depending on how and what you wear with them - you can create several different looks.
Blue leather gloves. They have been on my Christmas list for a few years but Santa hasn't got around to bringing them yet. I have some bright blue ones but I would love some navy ones. I think they are pretty much the only colour I haven't got!
Tweed fitted jacket. Don't ask my why, it's a strange one I'll grant you but ever since I saw the lovely Miss Hannah Lloyd wear one to work a few months back, it has been on the list. Hers is lovely with elbow patches and everything. Very Horse & Hound!
A cape. Big one, small one, wool or velvet, I don't really care. I have always wanted one since I was a little girl. That's probably the best time to wear one really, not when you are facing the big 40 but if Carrie Bradshaw can get away with one....so can a slightly eccentric, fashion-mad English woman!
