    The boots are amazing - I would never have thought of looking in M&S for boots! And a really reasonable price as well.

    These ones are much cheaper as they're not real leather. I don't think it shows it very well in the pic but there's a decorative chuky zip up the back- red on the brown ones and blue on the black.
    They have some beautiful leather ones in M&S too, but €115.

    Oh had a lovely spree around the vintage and charity shops with the boyfriend today.. got some great bits, I posted my new yellow dress in the what I wore today thread because it's so pretty I couldn't wait to wear it and am now prancing around the countryside wearing it for the rest of the day ;)

    Grey-blue pleated wrap around skirt with embroidered detail: charity shop (4euro)
    Little leather satchel: Charity shop (2 euro)

    These both came from the new St Vincent De Paul chairt shop in the North main st shopping centre, definately reccomend any locals have a look, they have really nice stock at half the prices of all the other charity shops!

    IMG_6681.jpg

    Handmade blue floral skirt: vintage shop (7euro, got a fiver off for waffling the ears of the girl working about dresses for half an hour :))

    Oh and Lindtee I saw a lovely brown floral prairie maxi dress with your name on it in the new vintage shop near Opera lane in the city, it was 19.50!

    Also getting some new skirts made up for me by the girl in the vintage shop soon, going picking fabrics for them next week I'm so excited!

    I reckon it'll be great for daytime wear.

    Some great buys there, Sapsorrow. I can't pick which one I like best they are all so pretty:) But that little bag is beautiful and unbelievable for 2 euro. You have a great eye for nice things. Must do a traipse of the charity shops in Cork some day soon, when the grandparents next take the boys. Will check out that vintage shop too.

    PM me your address and I'll stick the little satchel in the post for you! I have too many already, I just bought it on the assumption I'd find someone I know who'd like it eventually!

    And two pairs of chelsea boots in Penneys, only €15 each. One pair black, the other tan. Just HAD to get both at that price.

    Thanks for that:) I couldn't expect you to do that. I'll check through my many stuff and maybe we could do a swap though (would feel better about that), watch this space:)

    I indulged in some serious retail therapy this weekend. First up was a Vivienne Westwood handbag (the Bam Bam bag) only mine is in semi-glossy black leather

    We then went down to Kildare Village today, where I got a lovely pair of pale purple patent pumps in Bally, which were reduced to E60.

    I also picked up a lovely jewel print ruffle top in Ted Baker (sorry, but can't find a pic).

    Pic is a little too big to post. They're calf-length and very comfy!

    Bought from a Dr Martens shop.

    Also this, but in a dark brown, from Tim Bargeot http://www.timbargeot.net/popmanteau1.html

    Thanks Twee - I'm chuffed with it. All the hard work during the year feels worth it somehow when I reward myself this like.

    BroomBurner - I love those Doc Martens, there's a real feeling of Victoriana from them

    Went on a little budget trip to Penneys - I love their stuff, because I'm hopeless with good jewelry -
    I always either lose it or get sick of it. Here are 2 pendants and 2 giant rings, the total was around €10/€12:

    Longford, but I saw them in Mullingar during the week too. I'd say any of the larger stores have pretty much the same stuff at the minute, lots of vintage-looking things!
