UHH!

Hi my sweets!
Am I the only one out there who feel totally
uninspired, tired and fed up with the cold and
the rain?
It's supposed to be summer!
For as long as I lived here in the UK it's been
nice and warm all the way to mid October.
What the h**l happened?!
I am freezing cold, walking around with thick
woolly socks and a cup of chai tea all day.

Anyway. We took a little trip to Golders Green
yesterday for a quick browse in my favorite
charity shop before we had dinner with mother
in law at our favorite vegetarian Chinese.
I didn't score big but what I got is very useful
to me personally.

First I found this 1950's umbrella stand for £2.
It's not that I need another one but the kitsch
factor was too high so I couldn't resist and it will
come in handy in my hobby room to store rolls
of wall paper and wrapping paper.



I also found a pair of really nice red-ish pants with a
vintage look that for once isn't too long for my short
chunks. I paid £2 and the brand is Miss Selfridge.

Those trousers are very nice for only 2 pounds and the umbrella rack is adorable

I too have very short legs,approx 25 inches, and my trick is to buy cropped trousers!! Cheaper and no need to roll up!
