Dress Of The Day with Angela

I was sure I had bought something in that pattern previously. I searched my own blog and discovered that I already own several outfits.  I also have, somewhere in my clutter of clothes, an assortment of amusing acessories. My low price items include a fun, leopard skin pattern cowgirl hat.   Low Price Leopard Skin Coat & Accessories See also post 527 of Angela Lansbury in a leopard skin pattern coat from St Luke's in London, England. Free Leopardskin Broken Umbrella The cheapest item was completely free, a rescued broken umbrella which somebody had abandoned under a bush after a shower of rain in Singapore. I could not bear to part with the pretty fabric. I cut it off.  I placed it over another plain colour umbrella.

 After meeting Megan who was wearing a wonderful, colourful Oliver Bonas skirt, I noticed the Oliver Bonas shop in Paddington Station. A few days later I was passing through Euston station and had time to browse in that branch of the clothes shop. The clothes for day evening and outdoor jackets were colourful, distinctive, attention-getting and original. In addition to dresses, tops and jackets  I saw handy hats.

A corgi lovers pizza cutter. Please share links to your favourite posts.
